    Curved blade for reciprocating saws

    Oh, by the way, that 60's model powersharp may have been an earlier rendition that failed to catch on. The chain was different. I bought an old Poulan powered one time that came set up that way from the factory.

    Curved blade for reciprocating saws

    The Power Sharp that I'm familiar with comes most usable as a kit. It has that yellow plastic device which holds a sharpening stone, a bar that fits your saw and let's the yellow sharpening device fit up to it firmly, and a specific PowerSharp chain. Yes cutting a big root or few I could get...

    Curved blade for reciprocating saws

    Ha! If you ever need to do big roots (10 and 12 inches on some here) consider using the Oregon Insta Sharp kit. You're still going to be some frustrated. You will ruin a chain but, given that you re-sharpen with the saws power in a few seconds it can make it doable to cut for a trench or in...

    Curved blade for reciprocating saws

    Good find. If my sawsall weren't far more cumbersome than a battery Echo I would get some now to try.

    I've been told Marin County CA has banned bamboo for fire reasons.

    Bandit Chipper possible options - and why.

    Anyone tempted to drag through sensitive areas might want to look up the (Slidder?). A thin plastic mat made to stack on and drag things around. A client bought one to drag things behind his garden tractor. It almost looks like an item I could use at times.

    Someone please design an industrial level version of the fiskar telescoping pole pruner

    I've got one coming just for the odd bigger cut when doing fine pruning. Interesting, I didn't know the Fiskars 6 to 12 Big Stick had a slipping issue - I've never used the polesaw attachment with mine. My brother has trees at his house and mentioned sharpening the saw blade. I said don't do...

    Someone please design an industrial level version of the fiskar telescoping pole pruner

    Fiskars had a UPX86 model that showed up on Youtube with some hard to watch, little pertinent info videos. I can't find that one to buy anywhere. They said it could do 1.25 inch cuts. I wonder if that didn't get canceled in favor of a unit I see on Amazon that says it can do 1.25 inch...

    Euro tracked chippers.

    By the way, after Mick and a few others posting here with personal experience with Euro chippers I would go to that Euro based Arb forum and search exhaustively what people experience with them there. (Also great for any Euro based equipment insights long before released here in the states...

    Alec, your contribution is great. If you watch the video...Mick is not wrong about the presentation of the chipper from Baur (sp). I think anyone selling equipment for our profession should either go out and put in more time with it (I've seen Baur throw a few sticks through used chippers he...

    Mick if I was ever tasked with picking a solid work mate just from a person's comments - you would do.

    Echo DCS-2500T

    Just so you know there is a world of difference between the T540i and the T542i's cutting ability if you compare new chain to new chain. I thought, "what difference could a clutch being added make"? But, I think they are delivering more power and using battery a bit faster too. If you ever...

    The customer reviews are possibly insightful. I'll get my bar length checked today and order one.

    Euro tracked chippers.

    When I did serious shopping for a chipper I remember thinking each salesman I talked to should go out and spend a week or two chipping under various conditions. Many seemed to have never chipped a single stick and didn't realize the idiotic things that were coming out of their mouths.

    That's my idea of " getting it done" personally.
