    MS660 knock off

    I want a dedicated saw for my chainsaw mill. I’m tired of have to set up switch everything around every time. I just ordered a knockoff of the Stihl ms660. It was only $300 bucks for the power head and I have the bars and chains already so I’m taking the chance. Anyone here try these cheap...

    I had a 12’ Ted Williams for a while with 7.5 and it was fun I’m sure that 15 hp was a real blast. For what they were they were decent boats.

    Is that Hickory? I like the grain pattern and it looks like its tough stuff and should hold up well.

    I have been redoing my decks and it’s taking for ever as I only have time in the evenings and the days are getting shorter pretty quick. I’m going with stainless cable railings at some point.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    I have to disagree on that one. The more that try to help the better. Every little drop counts. My grandfather used to put his used oil on the road in front of our house to keep the dust down. His theory was that’s where it came from to begin with. A guy would get into a lot of trouble doing...

    Sounds tasty. I use Drambuie in the filling and the whip cream topping. It’s a wonderful match for my taste buds. There used to be an Amish place in Sarasota Fl called Sugar and Spice. Not sure if it’s still there but all there pies were amazing. My favorites were the pumpkin pie and apple...

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    Agreed My thought on this is bushings have a clearance that needs to be filled with oil to perform as designed. Oil quality is not at play as much as oil quantity for a bushing. Less oil results in more friction. Sometimes old school technology needs to be treated as it was designed to be.

    Silliest Question on Fuel Mix - Thank you for your patience

    Yea there will always be a lot of different opinions on this topic. For me when comes to bushings skimping on oil is just asking for problems.

    I’m on Martha’s Vineyard Being a relatively small island the EV’s make a lot of sence here. Servicing them has been a challenge but it’s starting to become possible to find a shop that can work on them.

    How do you like the Rivian? They are all over the place especially the truck but several others are pretty popular as well. I haven’t heard anything bad so I’m guessing things are going well.
