I want a couple little buddy heaters for my deer stand lol

I bought one for my camper a few years ago great little heater, #### the bed this year I think it is the oil in the tip over switch........bought a big buddy this deer season for the camper, much better deal for the 20 -30 bucks more! twice the heat!!!! gunna take all the safety crap off the little buddy and just make it into an older 1950's heater and use it in the deer blind. If you do think about it go with the big buddy, a better deal for the money! up to 18000 btu's and ya still have the 4500 and 9000 btu setting!
I got my big buddy for 129.00 I think through Sportsman guide.
 
Don't know......Maybe john will show up and tell us.
It's a 15 yr. old 066. I bought it new, used it for a short season in softwood. Then moved here and used it one week in hardwood and the crank bearings went out. Set it on a shelf and forgot about it till this summer.
Now I have been reading a lot here on AS and am now an EXPERT saw builder. I'm sure everybody believes that ,right?
Seriously, anything that saw did was because of the chain. And it was'nt special. That is the difference in sq. ground/round. It is more pronounced in softwood.

I wish that it would have been warmer. I had my grinder with me but it was so cold that I knew the slide would hardly move. More time and warmer weather and I would have ground some of you guys chains.

Cool, It was a nice saw. Much faster than anyone elses. I run square chisel on the 460 and the 036. Matter of fact since i bought the stihls that's all i run. it sure was a pleasure meeting you and wish i could have stayed that night.

I completely agree.

When it comes to experts and sleepers, ol John wins hands down.

We could all learn alot from him, as well as be well entertained on his experiences in Alaska, etc. Mrs. John is a wealth of info and experiences also. (heck, maybe more!)

I'm just glad he's close enough to us.

Good time had by all.


Is any one within 300 miles GLAD they didn't come?
 
Here's JohnEllison GITTIN' SOME!

Now John, I do respect your integrity but that 395 had square ground on it too. When I sharpened it round it gained 3 seconds to cut 49s's, still 9's behind that real hot 066. I am not calling you a liar or nothing but something happened real nice on your rebuild. So nice in fact, I may have to rebuild my new 395<a href="http://www.sweetim.com/s.asp?im=gen&lpver=3&ref=11" target="_blank"><img src="http://content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/emoticons/00020160.gif" border="0" title="Click to get more." ></a> For the MS 660's it was close but the one cc came through for me lol I will be modding it a little for next gtg and will have good chains on them too <a href="http://www.sweetim.com/s.asp?im=gen&lpver=3&ref=11" target="_blank"><img src="http://content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/emoticons/0002045A.gif" border="0" title="Click to get more." ></a><a href="http://www.sweetim.com/s.asp?im=gen&lpver=3&ref=11" target="_blank"><img src="http://content.sweetim.com/sim/cpie/emoticons/000202FD.gif" border="0" title="Click to get more." ></a>
