Bummer.
Can you mill it up into flooring, since I'm guessing you didn't buy the wife flowers?
:laugh:
My logging buddy is gonna stop by and grab the 4 big sections. So, while it will be getting milled, it won't be me or for me. Need to toss some stuff to the people that help me out every now and then, if you know what I mean.
(No, I'm not getting her flowers either.
)

Well at least something good will come from the wood, totally get helping those who help you :cheers:, that's how it should work.

:laughing:
 
I am ordering a new set, the ones in it I think aren't worth sharpening. I have the exact same chipper but its a CH231 with 3 knives instead of two.
My Valby chipper has 2 knives. I too have a spare set. It was nice when I was working building machines. I had access to all kinds of machinery and sharpened my cutters at work on one of the automatic horizontal surface grinders.
 
Yeah, I was thinking about the 27 project statement the other day. I probably should have said I'm currently working on 27, but I have one or two more that need worked on :innocent: .
Looking at the woodshed, it appears even getting the wood in there will be a bit of a project/ take a little preparation :rolleyes:. Seems a couple of projects are somewhat in the way lol.
Soon as I get done with the current project I'll take a step out and maybe I'll start on some wood filling prep, but for now :drinkingcoffee: .

Right! 27 active projects, but like @sean donato said... 127 (and maybe more!) It's just that 100 of them are inactive because it's been so long since we worked on them. LOL
 
Another Happy Birthday to ya SimonHS! Hope all is well across the pond!

My Dad appreciated the hospitality shown to him before going into France. In fact, he served under Monty for a bit before being assigned to Patton.

Said the British troops (and when he was assigned with them) got a Rum ration every month that the American troops did not get!

The only thing he did not like was "too much rain".
 
A ported MS400 would put my ported MS261 to shame, and I think it will also out due those Huskys! They are a VG power to weight saw.

The Husky saw had an advantage over the 362, but the 400 reversed those rolls!
The original 362 was one of the greatest disappointments of a pro saw I've ever ran, the last reiteration wasn't bad, and the handlebar angle is much more like a husqvarna, so that's a win for handling/ergonomics.
I still have yet to run a 400, but my mmws late model 562 does a nice job. Unfortunately the 562 is nearly the same weight as a 372, the biggest benefit with the 562 would be the fuel economy in smaller wood. My ported 365 open port keeps up with my ported 562, and it's only like an ounce or two heavier and a much simpler machine if it ever needs work.
The 462 is a beast for its weight:chainsaw:.
Unfortunately I think huskis still try to recover from the bad name they earned from the early auto-tune saws. It's kinda unfortunate they made the new 550 mk2, right after working all the bugs out of the 550mk1, which was quite a bit lighter and is the best handling 50cc saw I've ran.
 
Never had trout cooked over a spruce fire, have you? It all ties in!
Usually gut them.and toss them into a couple wraps of tinfoil with a chunk of butter on the coals, not sure spruce makes it any better lol.
I was kinda expecting something a bit more impressive from you, funny article 😄.

Old school put a whipping on that Stihl lol 😆 IMG_2158.jpeg
 
And you feel it thru your hands for the rest of the day...
Funny thing, I only owned a couple 266s, one was nos. Petty cool, but I couldn't run as I knew that would kill the value, so I sold it.
You need the cork bike wrap for the handle, 👍😁
