Got to love this one

Firewood - pre-charred - $25 (Hadley)
A stack of wood that came off an attic floor which had a fire sometime in the 30's or 40's. Many of the boards are charred. Included is a pile that was installed after the fire and is not charred. Not sure what other uses charred wood would be used for other than firewood but let your imagination run wild.

Better than 'post-charred' firewood?

Maybe someone could re-purpose them. People have been using charred siding for thousands of years. The Japanese seem to be the pioneers of this. Once the outside is charred it is extremely rot resistant.

I see a lot of sign boards if nothing else

This was posted for sale in a local CL ad.
Now there's a good idea...
The owner claimed it would cut faster than a chainsaw.
Must have be referring to fingers and arms.

I made one of those out of a cedar round in 1 hour +/- with a 60 grit flap wheel on an angle grinder, a square, a pencil, and a palm sander with 220 grit on it. $186 an hour seems pretty sweet to me.

The riveted clutch cover is great.

One would have to be a pretty dull knife to even consider this.....

The ad is pulled down now. Assuming people told him he was FOS and he got mad. His first revision was to drop the price from $750 to a dollar then he put $750 in the description.

I had a screenshot of it.

I see the same thing happening with the same saw in Australia. We pay $249 for a new Ms170 and they often appear on eBay for $265 plus postage for a second hand unit. I don’t understand.
