    You need a good laugh or pickmeup?

    Long story short: After a year of running the chainsaw I had a good idea of what I really liked and what I didn't so I ordered the saw I thought would serve me well. Problem is that it is a new design and came with a newly introduced chain. The filing guides aren't on the continent yet so I will have to freehand it for a month or two. So I googled "freehand chainsaw sharpening" and a bit of web cruising later I come across this guy.

    Only in Canada... Oh, and the song was performed by the band he and his mother are members of lol! An amazing talent with a world class sense of humor and love of life.

    Priceless lyrics:

    "The Wood Man wears a smirk and flicks the whistle on his chest
    he walks away in confidence 'cause he knows his wood's the best."

    Bwahahaha..... I'm in a good mood just from watching a couple of his vids.

    Wow! That was a great job but something I'd never attempt.

    I love the work but chainsaws scare the hell out of me. But you know the old joke: What do you call a phobia of chainsaws? Answer: Common sense.

    I live what a chain saw can do. But, there sure is a lot that could go wrong in a hurry when you’re runni ng one.

    Damn! That thing is medieval. Beats an axe and mattock though. 😊

    Like Barry - I discovered quickly.. I can cut more brush than I want to stack
    If you turn a dog loose to hunt – you’d better to be ready to deal with what he trees.

    I've got two things to make brush piles fun:

    1) One gallon of kerosene.

    2) One pack of hot dogs.
