Not bored, but I checked it out anyways. That was a gnarly looking tree, it must have left an opening in the canopy. That must not be today's work, there isn't any snow on the ground.

I use to get 5 gal of sap out that on a good day and I remember when it was only 3" but 4 years ago I added some fill to the back of house, maybe to much fill got to high against it. Then on the other hand I plan on adding a retirement home to the back of my house in a few years so it had to come down anyways...........

Nothing but Drama... we live every bit of that here in Maine although I don't know many truckers who will let you push their truck through the mud like that. They will tell you that when it's muddy like that it's cheaper to stay home... call them when it stops raining or you get the road fixed.

I expected the saw to get pinched a few times that's normal but when the oil cap comes off and dumps the oil out on my brand new $60.00 overalls that's not normal and blanks me off. I took them off, soaked them in a 5 gal bucket of water with Tide, they are hanging now, still damp and the stain is still showing but being dark brown the stain dont show to bad.

Guarantee it'l be a long time before that cap comes off again by itself. This might be where Stihl and Husqvarna saws have improve with the flip up cap lid design, dont need a wrench to refill a saw, course on the other hand Echo is just a basic $150.00 cheaper saw. But the good news is the $90.00 Carhatt's refuses to make my size 40/28 so I saved $30.00 there, and speaking of which why is Carhartt geared to tall people, 5'8"-6'8", I'm 5'5" and I'm feeling discriminated against...................

I respectfully disagree. With the Still flip up cap design it is quite easy to twist the cap, "lock" it down and the cap still comes off if you didn't have it in the right grooves. I have lost more oil than I care to admit, but don't usually notice until I get in the woods and ready to fire up. Thank goodness the cap tether works and I haven't lost the cap......yet.
