i am using the new stihl bar oil.. the thin runny stuff. and mine pisses out oil. being adjustable i have wound mine back. it lubes more than my shaft on little boys..............................

I guess it must be a quality control thing cause I am running the same oil as you and I don't get the same results as you do in your quote above

[huntingrob]

may i arsk what POI stands for.

point of impact mate (where it shoots) it will change the harmonics of the barrel, just like your hand or stock coming in contact with it. may make a difference, maybe not. best to check it before you go for a hunt.

He"ll probably get 900 for it the way stihls sell on eBay. Can't believe how much we get shafted buying stihl stuff here. Was looking to pick up a ms241 when I go America in few months for like $550, then I kept upgrading as there so cheap ended up at the 362 for around $700-800 lol I'll probably end up with an 880. Have any of you guys sent stuff from the US to Aus. Who should I use?

Stihl is a bit harder than the other brands, they are much tighter on Internet sales. Basically the best way is getting one of the saw porters to buy it and ship it to you. Plenty of guys have bought and shipped ported saws cheaper than they can buy direct from stihl in Aus.
If you are going over it may be different. You can probably buy it and ship it to yourself.

Oops. I just worked out you meant which shipping company.

I'm pretty sure that usps has always been cheaper than FedEx.

Was thinking either of those, I've already got a ported 660 send over from brad, which doesn't get enough use unfortunately. Usually grab the 038 and 064 and the old 076 for good measure. Might ask on the main forums the best way to go about it. Am even thinking of hiring a car while I'm there to assist with my shopping lol. Wonder if you can get the dodge hellcat. Not sure on driving on the wrong side of the road but

i have always used fedex.. but that cause we have account with them at work. i think ball park figure one way is 150 to 200 bucks. within a week delivery.

Riddle me this fellas; what happens if welding, even just intermittent fillets, down one side of a 3.6m aluminium beam when the opposite side is already glued and riveted and no or not enough pre-stressing/treating and/or inadequate sequencing of said welding?
