That looks nice, I'll get another Husky. I'm looking for an OE 372xp. Just missed the one David Major was selling.

Some of my earliest memories as a kid are playing in the woods with my older sister while dad cut fire wood and burned brush.
Those 254xp's are a light weight ripper

Bearing blew up on dads Valby CH222 chipper. Luckily it was just a simple 4 bolt 212 flange ball bearing. Called the shop I use for work all the time and had him back in business in a few days. The bearing must've been going in it when he bought it 15 years ago, the anvil was all out of whack and one of the blades is still chipped. She runs like a dream now.

I hope that there is no structural or serious damage to your house.
You need to keep those knives razor sharp to reduce the strain on the chipper.
I'm almost to the point where I can move things into the place I plan on leaving them, pretty excited for that, I'm tired of shuffling.Can’t wait to see ur shop setup, gonna be great, get those square grinders going,
That being said, I plan on taking advantage of the nice temps and the lack of mosquitoes during false spring so I can get some things done outside, then I'll get back to working on/ in the barn when the temps warm up and the mosquitoes are wanting to carry me away(won't be long).
That's something I may work on a bit today. I have a couple cord ready to go in the woodshed for next season, and a little that can go in for two seasons from now. I'll need to get some dead locust to finish next seasons out, and then I'll start splitting to fill 2 seasons from now, and some to sell this fall and to clean up a little. I've got a lot of wood around even burning wood exclusively for heat. I'm trying not to complain about that "problem " lol.
No fish in it, totally disappointed!

I am ordering a new set, the ones in it I think aren't worth sharpening. I have the exact same chipper but its a CH231 with 3 knives instead of two.
Sounds like a plan, getter done
Me personally, I'd suggest selling the 660 and the 460, and buying a 462 or a 500i, but maybe I'm more sensitive to vibrations and like that they get better fuel economy. That being said, square chain can help make them a good bit smoother.
Oh, I'd port the 400, then you wouldn't hardly need the 460.
I sold a 357 to a guy who had two saws, both 394's
. He wasn't a big guy either, about my size.
No getting it done today lol, but I'll get something started...Sounds like a plan, getter done
Thanks!
Me to ,
Project #28, coming right up!
Those little 200 rear handles are great saws.
The bore cut is the standard cut taught for falling leaners. Most cut and leave a little holding wood, then pull your saw out of the cut/bore, which leaves a "trigger" , then cut just a bit lower than the bore cut through the trigger releasing the tree. It gives a lot of time to get further from the tree. If you cut the trigger above or cut out the back, you run the risk of having wood tear out from the stump and grabbing your saw
. Although it makes for great what not to do videos .
Bummer.
Can you mill it up into flooring, since I'm guessing you didn't buy the wife flowers?
