    Chainsaw sharpener!

    While we're on the subject, don't forget about the drags. After half a dozen sharpenings take a flat file across the drags 3 or 4 licks and you'll love results.

    Chainsaw sharpener!

    I cut over 50 rick of firewood a year and have even replaced the wheel on my HF sharpener. The most important thing is keeping your chain locked down and the grind angle. If your angle is off your screwed when you get to the woods! I don't have one complaint with mine in over 5 years.

    Harbor Freight 20 ton press is changing - Major Changes - Info inside

    So I hear everybody wanting to change out bolts, take a hint from the 12 year old above. Bolt it together, square it up and lay a bead or 2 on it if you think it needs to be stronger. I'd just use it till it breaks and then fix it, it's not like your making monthly payments on it.........

    Ready to go plasma...new or used hi-end or cheap-o

    I'm leaning toward the Hobart Airforce 250ci,my son works at a farm store and i can get in under $800.

    Ready to go plasma...new or used hi-end or cheap-o

    I'm ready to buy a plasma cutter, I have torches and use propane...messy cuts but effective. Should I go used, high-end or new, cheap-o? Well I guess if you can call $6-700 cheap, you get where I'm going. I know that I'll get all kinds of advice, but that's what I'm here for....Thanks guys!

    Cornwell Tools "must haves"

    I like the way they fit my hand, and the fact that I can put a wrench on the shaft is what sold me on them over the Wittes. I've been toying with green hard handled S&Ks but, I'd rather buy off the truck than Amazon.
