Normal ish ones I guess. I try to on the weekends. A bit of a reset if'n you will.
 
Nice. People have been reporting 9+ inches on the lakes 'round here already. This is day seven of a crazy cold snap; last nights low was -37C with the wind chill. Today's high is supposed to be -21C. Not even my husky wants to spend more than 10 mins outside these days. Supposed to last another week. Fishing starts up whenever the temp reaches a more humane level. Plus I picked up a used power auger for a good price a few weeks ago (no more relying on my buddies) that's been calling my name...

We aren't quite as cold as you are. Similar high temps though. We had zero ice on the lake and no fishable ice either. Now the lake is completely locked up and there are some fishable areas. I'm gonna wait until it's safeis to walk around everywhere before I head out. It should be ok by the time I have a chance to go out again.

Eta:. Check out the Clam Spoon Boxes. I ordered one and I think it's gonna be really nice to keep organized and to keep spoons from getting buggered up.
 
I promise I'll stay away from the $50+ pens.

Lol! I said the same thing... and then got a ZT pen. $140 later.... it writes really nicely!! only problem being is it pretty heavy for extended use. I don't plan on buying any more, just refills haha.
 
How many times have all of us said that about everything?

More rabbit hole alerts to feed upon my OCD:
1). Flashlights. You can't get enough lumens. Ever. Or smallest, brightest optimization. Or throw power. I'm already down that rabbit hole.
2). Lighters. Why only light something when you could also weld stuff? I'm still clinging to the rim on this one. Help!
 
They fixed the chainsaw in less than 60 seconds... The selector on the Inside had moved over a little...

They asked me to try it out some more and if it happens again they'll give me a new one... I made 3cuts with it and so far so good so we'll see...

They did give me a free chain for the inconvenience... Same thing that came with it... A safety chain... But Im happy work a free backup regardless lol

nothing wrong with safety chain - and if, as you get more used to using the saw/comfortable with the dangers inherent in its use, you feel the need, you can file down the bumps that keep the saw from taking a deeper bite than the motor can safely handle.
if you ever decide you want the ultimate in cutting ferocity, go with a full chisel "ripping" chain -- the teeth have a 5 degree skew instead of 25 degree. extremely aggressive.
it's what I got to use on my Husky 372 xp for sawing logs into beams -- or the first cut on a log to make a flat surface for the sawmill to ride on.

I'll look into them... I'll prolly buy one and have it on hand for once i get some more experience...

Cut another tree down and into sections without issues so I'm guessing They fixed the issue...

But now i don't have any more trees i wanna cut down :( LoL

I got around 100 oaks on my property but i keep as many as i can. I'll be putting some fencing up in a couple months and prolly have a couple in the way... But man i wanna cut some more LOL


I guess now i need a splitting axe, wedge... A full splitting setup lol
 
Anyone know when Ethan will announce the dates for the spring gathering? I'd like to make it down there for once.
 
So this came in today.

That is very smexy. I love everything Bill Harsey designs and/or makes. Just can't afford all of them....with the exception maybe of the Gerber Air Ranger.

I promise I'll stay away from the $50+ pens.

Quoted for truth.
