Now I get it and I did experience it once. That's all it took to learn. Funny, I did not remember that until now. It happened more than 60 years ago.

I must not have been there because I do not recognize what that burn is from.

I own a BX1860 with a MMM and I never had any damage to my HST cooling fan, probably because of the MMM being in place. My neighbor has a BX1850 without the MMM. He broke all the blades off his HST cooling fan several years ago. He only found out about it because I was helping him replace the...

I think Mossberg because the Mossberg bolt works perfectly in it. It was branded Ted Williams but as I understand it a few manufacturers made them under that name for Sears.

My dad was in the US Army, 82nd Airborne Division. That's the same division that most of my family served in at various different times. It was a family tradition. My father went to jump School in 1949, I went to jump School in 1973, and my son went to jump School in 2011. My father is senior, I...

The best chainsaw that I ever owned was a McCullough with a 16" bar. I paid $110 for it at K-Mart in 1984. That thing started on the second or third pull every time. I cut about a thousand cords of firewood with it before I gave it to my little brother when I bought the Sthil. He still has it...

Where did you buy that greenhouse from? I have been looking for a greenhouse but all the ones I have seen would never hold up to the winds we get here.

I did not catch that. He used a Philadelphia zip code. Must be a photoshop makeover of a real pass request.

My simple solution would be to install a battery cutoff. They are just a few dollars and install on the negative terminal of the battery. Problem solved for less than $10.

I love that reason for request.

That looks like something from a Red Green episode.

It sounds like you have C rated tires on it. Go one load rating higher (Load Rating D) and it will be good for you.

I have a Stihl chainsaw that is 34 years old. It has never started cold on less than 7 pulls, even from day one. After it is warm, it starts on one pull. I have always thought that was the nature of this beast. I have never used ethanol in it. It does an excellent job at anything I have ever cut...

Jeremiah was a bullfrog and I helped him drink his wine. he always had some fine wine.
