    Can you recommend a way I can learn to perform this voodoo in 5 minutes? Any good videos on how to sharpen a chain that you'd recommend?

    Do you folks who own the Milwa Chainsaw actually sharpen your own chains, or do you send them somewhere for sharpening, or do you just dispose of a dull chain and buy new?

    Need: Hacksaw That Disassembles

    Yes, that would be just about perfect. Have searched, and they appear to be truly off the market. I think I'm a couple of years too late, and its replacement is a solid frame model. LOL. "Any flavor'll do, friend, but could I ask that you slip in a file also?"

    Thanks guys. The pine branch that fell on my roof is 8" diameter and I got three cuts in before nightfall on the 3.0s without incident. So far so good. I'll take it easy and slow until I can get a bigger battery. BTW...that Milwa chainsaw is sweeeeeeeeeet!

    Need: Hacksaw That Disassembles

    Sent email to WyomingKnife: Does Wyoming Saw 1 also take standard 12" hacksaw blades? Response: No. The holes on the those blades are too small for our saws. Also, I believe they are about and inch and 1/2 too long.

    Need: Hacksaw That Disassembles

    Yes, that would do it...thank you! Looks like I need to get an adjustable and maybe modify it a bit. I doubt it'll ever be "high tension" but it should be good enough to get the job done. (I suspect the high tension hacks don't disassemble.) Thanks also for the pic with the tape measure!

    Need: Hacksaw That Disassembles

    I found it, dimensions given as 10 x 13 inches. The length is good but the depth is an inch over for lying flat. Will try it upright. I like the looks of it. Uses standard 12" hack blades, you say? Hmm... says it takes 11-1/8" blades...I wonder if those are proprietary blades...

    Need: Hacksaw That Disassembles

    I need a decent quality, high tension 12" hacksaw that disassembles and fits into my new toolbox, a Milwaukee Compact Box, which has internal dimensions of 9x14". Many hacksaws available don't disassemble, and as far as I can tell, nobody makes a 12" hacksaw with an overall assembled dimension...

    Thanks. I thought I read somewhere that all batteries are compatible; I thought it was just a matter of runtime...?

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    I need to buy a Mil chainsaw to make a few cuts (maybe a dozen cuts through 8") to a branch that fell on my roof. I only have two CP3.0 batteries. Can I get a few cuts out of a CP3.0? I know it would do better with 12Ah, but can I do a little with 3.0?

    Rust converter that turns the metal black?

    I dropped several lightly rusted quick links into a bottle of half strength CLR (the widely available calcium, lime, rust remover) and then accidentally forgot about them for several days. When I fished them out, they had a nicely overall blackened effect that stayed on even after a wire...

    Slick is reporting that the M12 750-lumen spotlight is being marked down in *some* HD stores to $35 (from $70). I don't see this online.
