I'm a DIYer and this probably won't work for you. I separated my 1/4. 3/8, and 1/2 socket sets into the Sears truck boxes. I use plastic socket rails and made holders for the ratchet and extensions. I just have the essentials, not a 100% socket set in these. The hinges are "real" hinges...

Project Farm gave a favorable review of the EGO string trimmer recently.

While I have not read that book, I am aware of the "King's Trees" story. White pine has quite a history in Michigan and I am proud that my career resulted in tens of thousands of tree seedlings reforesting Michigan over the past decades. Carry on sir - but beware that unmarked black...

I fear that somebody (politician?) is going to find out how much fun and practicality your project is and they will find a way to tax or otherwise regulate it, LOL.

Not to mention, the supply chain issues we currently face might change parts attainment for years to come.

Please tell us this comment was intentional, LOL. We are to assume you were on the river and not in the red light district, correct?

I have the Harbor Freight model and it works just fine. I only maintain one vehicle, so if I have to fiddle with a cheap unit a bit every few years, no big deal. My intent is to i.d. a bad rotor (maybe hub) out of the box and/or to index the rotor to the hub to achieve the runout below the...

Man, your delivery experience was about 10,000% better than my Hein Werner experience 1 year ago. The second, better attempt:

I shared with RivennHewn that our local large University has a portable sawmill used to mill salvaged campus trees. The program has multiple facets: repurpose downed trees, sustainability/recycling, etc.. The products produced are mostly over-priced and aimed at creating a "pet rock" type of...

Gonna try to send you a private message.

Maybe I missed it earlier in this thread - what happens with all of the lumber you saw?

Just some unhelpful comments: The post showing the can of SuperLube with chart - be careful because the chart is for silicone grease and the can is their synthetic lube. Different products with different compatibilities. I.e., the synthetic Super Lube is not EPDM compatible. Also of...

I enjoy your updates. Beautiful sawmill work. A few years ago I scoffed at the idea of battery chainsaws and some other tools. Not anymore. Thank you.

LOL, the OP hasn't received much assistance to his question, and I won't be able to help either. Discussing transmission care is not unlike politics. You see lots of bias and misinformation. Good luck OP.

Did you notice that the lettering on the right side of your "better aligned" pair is less opaque than the left side? Better alignment, less visibility! Just can't win. While a non-issue for me, I am also concerned when quality control appears to be slipping. I remember when Ideal plier...

Read my answer above from 8 years ago. Then, decide if you want to spend up to $150 (Chinese Amazon) or up to $350 (Oregon-Amazon). You'll have to do some internet searching to find experienced reviews of the sub-$150 Chinese ones.

Very cool. Decades ago in forestry school, I remember being taught that the entire success of a mill depended on the head sawyer's skill (before computers, lasers, etc.). The pressure is on now, LOL. Lots to learn, for sure. Have fun. Watch for nails!

Google "antique dough cutting tool" - images This link shows them to be used as vegetables/herbs chopper also: https://www.tooltique.co.uk/shop/vintage-sheffield-made-herb-chopper-or-dough-cutting-tool/ This link also labels them as "food choppers"...

You can buy Tekton through Walmart, Sears, Tractor Supply Company, Home Depot, and ZORO websites too. Zoro often has 20% off coupons.

That THA's U.S. homebase is in your home town of Kansas City could be tempting to anyone. http://www.chinalifts.com/about1.php
