Just ended up with about 18lbs of fresh ground coffee (different flavors) plus a lot of tasty additives for the fru-fru crap. A Book-Keeping client of my Wife shut her restaurant down due to a lack of profits and to help off-set her tab made Shalie and I a hell of a deal on coffee... Even Mo Jim would be smiling!!!
 
Do any of you have experience with a Stihl 41? I like the looks and sound of them and have been entertaining the notion of trying to find one. I've never used one though, so I'm not sure what they're like...
 
Nooooooooo!

I'll bring mine to Matt's. They are a little slow but I like them.

Here is one of them.
 
Morning everyone, caffeine is starting to kick in and the world is looking better. It's only supposed to hit 88 today, well that's better than 95 I guess. The Eagle flys today so I might go to town and do some shopping.

I know what that is. For me, the 1st, the second tuesday of the month :clap: and the 25th are important days.

Got a pile of odd saw leftovers to push to the curb if it weren't for the rain (cardboard boxes get floppy). Mom's car still in the driveway.
 
Worked on the 6-10 the other night. Had a no spark issue and new plug in it. Pulled the fly wheel and found the points box oily. Cleaned and dried that up, filed the points and reset them. Found the condenser bad. Luckily I had another, so it got replaced. Now I've got good fire, dribbled some mix down the carb and it started. :rock:
I plan on using this one at charity cuts.

Glad it's on it's way to being a runner. I'm glad we made the Mac for Hommie swap.

Now if I could convince Jim for a Mac gear drive for Hommie gear drive trade. The phrase about when a certain place freezes over comes to mind though. Oh well.

They were the original FarmBoss...
A bit fragile in areas, and vibrate a lot, but good power output considering...

Just made a fresh pot of coffee, never did get to town today, fighting a bad case of the blaghs.
041's, I have 1 or 5, old school mag, a little heavy, a little loud, lot torque for their size, thousand's of them still in use. Blue locktite is mandatory on these saws as they tend to lose screws, especially on the old FarmBoss with out antivibe. Air filters for the early models are scarce, I have changed the filter plate to accept the later filters. I have two 041 supers, one with a full wrap and a 040 that needs some TLC. I love my old Sthil's, but seldom take them to the timber.
