Construction saw

[Marky Mark]

Since I am on a roll here's the new fireplace in the house, Soap stone my friends this baby will heat half the house with a 3 hour raging fire. I had it built in Germany and then assembled here. I love my toys BOYS.

Here's a hallway shot of the monster. 3 days of hard work it took the men to get it just right no locktite here. Plus once she's hot, about 22 hours of heat. I have the wood furnace out back for the radient heat.

Nice photos of your "winter heaters" (esp. the smiling one).

Am adding 3 feet of roof to my "lower" garage. It was built for a smaller car and truck and what's in there now is sticking out the end. Its a peaked framework of balsam fir and red pine poles cut on this land with sheets of metal roof on top. Of course I use a chainsaw here for all my construction work. Built this log house using my old Homelite 150AO.

But now I've got 3 medium-size saws hanging from their new rack: 024 Stihl, 2050 Jons, and an Echo CS-510. What did I grab yesterday? The 024. Not sure why except that its lighter, starts good, and has a new bar and chain on it. Plus it is the saw that stuck a piston last spring and I just re-ringed and cleaned up the piston with sandpaper. I guess I'm curious to see if it's going to stick again. I went down to a 40:1 mix for additional lubrication.

Timberframe deck

Markymark, second only to my wife, your fireplace is otherwise the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

I could use something like this on the timberframe attachment, kinda like a patio on steroids. I used the chainsaw to do all my rabbetts, dadoes and gang-cutting of joists. Couldn't be doing this project without a chainsaw. 346XP
