I like these Chinese saws. I have several more.

I pay all my bills online and use a CC. Bank gives points for using it and I pay off the balance every week. I just got a free table saw for paying my bills which I have to do anyways.

Think you mean every month, CC's are monthly statements, not weekly. I do the same, never a carry over balance. Why pay a CC company interest on an unpaid balance...

I also do the 'rewards' thing but in my case it's discounted gas and on road diesel plus grocery points against groceries. Just cashed in almost 200 bucks in free food. We have a Kroger World Mastercard and the people are here stateside as well, no offshore call center where you cannot understand the person on the other end of the line.

Personally, I'd never have a CC that didn't have a rewards program. Makes no sense to me.

I don't do Chinese saws but we do like the local Chinese beanery. Best sweet and sour pork I have ever had and the egg rolls are good as well.

Yes they are billed monthly but if you pay online you can pay it off any time you like. I get paid every two weeks so that's when I pay mine. It makes me 2% on any purchase.

That sure looks familiar

 

[Sidecarflip]

Being retired I only get my pension check once a month. Bi weekly paychecks are long gone for me, like 15 years ago gone.

Didn't you get one? I think I've talked to you about them before.

No, I actually pay the balance once a week and sometimes every day. Shows up on my credit union statement same day or next. My crypto card is the same thing. Thing I like about the crypto card is that is doesn't have points. It gives rewards 3% back on a purchase to buy crypto. I also have it set so that any charge over $10 pops up on my phone and asks if I did it. No way to scam the card as it also has no name or numbers on it.
One of my credit union cards lets you link it to several gas station chains. You can use you points for 50 cents off a gallon up to 20 gal and it costs 2,000. I save that one for the trip up north every year. Wife got points on her card, saved them up and I just got a free pair of boots at Cabelas.

Explosion and detonation are the same your probably thinking of pre-detonation which is bad.

More like a controlled explosion then a burn gotta have that pressure.

Explosion and detonation are not the same thing. Detonation specifically refers to an exothermic reaction that propagates through the explosive media at the speed of sound in that media. A tire can explode due to overpressure, but it cannot detonate. TNT detonates.

Is that a Redmax GZ3800/Zenoah clone?
Those are great little saws!

Yes. It does a good job.

How is this saw running? It is a 395 clone yes? I have the John Cutter 25cc, 38cc, 58cc and other versions of that 25cc (All these zenoah clones as was Husqvarna's clone 425T that these 25cc saws are) Right now I am working on the 365/372 clones and the carbs are hit and miss, so I have several Walbro's coming in and trying one higher quality mfg of the carb ... any carb issues with that 393 clone?

Correct. In addition there isn't a phenomenon that takes place within a two cycle motor called pre detonation.

Yes. 395xp clone. Runs good.

The Husky wasn't a clone. They own Redmax.

Redmax 3800 was real Zenoah made saw before sold in US before Husky bought them up for strato tech.

I owned the Redmax 3800 5000 that were Zenoah made. Also bought a JC 3800 clone to see and was just like the Redmax.

So these redmax zenoah saws had nothing to do with husky, as it was before they bought them out.

Redmax 2500 is also a Zeonah made saw. Zenoah did make them for husky in T425.

Redmax makes top notch stuff. They also have a history of building stuff for other OEM's. They made trimmers for Stihl and saws for Husky.

Correct. I have Redmax GZ400, GZ 4000 as well as clones of those saws (and the 3800) made and marketed by Ryobi Craftsman and a slew of orhers sort of culminating in the Earthquake saws.
All of these were clones of the Redmax saws that came with Zenoah engines and as Redneck said, had absolutely nothing to do with husky because this was long before husky acquired Redmax.

I just bought a NeoTec 28in bar with a full chisel off Amazon for $50 to run on the NH895. Chews through 20in oak like it's not there. The NeoTec bars are pretty nice for the price.
