    I have used both as production saws and would rate Sthils better than Huskys any day.

    Just bought a "Havelock North Pencil Sharpener". Stihl believe it is more important to have the best sharpened chain.[excuse pun].

    That made me warm just looking at the photo.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Excellent firewood. Burns hot and yields a great ember bed.

    Went out to the garage last night i.e. 1am and sharpened up the big saw with the Timberline. Fine line between getting it serviceable sharp and glass sharp. Nice kit. Thanks to 7mmsaum. Great advice.Could be an inherent disease like SSM cleaning brass.

    I can't believe it's your first fire for winter. We've had ours on for 25 days so far
