I acquired this from a scrap yard this morning. It's locked but it may free up and be okay.

Y'all will on Monday. I assume it'll be junk but you never know. I mean the one homelite was a decent find. I just also assume so I don't get my hopes up

Close, its for the mill so I don't have to push it through the log. Should make my life much easier. Next up is a ripping chain.

Wow that's a good deal

Anybody here know anything about Bluemax chainsaws?? Got 2 for free, both have 20" bars, 3 chains a piece, and both run well.
I believe they are the 52cc models.

I'm thinking there may be some modding done in the near future...[emoji41]

Well....
They're only 45cc.
Bummer.
Still gonna mod them though [emoji6]

Actually I got hired on to be a sweeper, the mill gets super dirty with flour and wheat dust all the time so they have to have someone to clean up the stuff off the machines and floor to prevent any possibility of explosions. That's what im doing now, but word is that before very long they are going to move me into a forklift position..... we will see.

I lIke it so far. It's way different. Alot of safety precautions and I have to wear gloves, ear plugs, safety glasses and a hard hat all the time.

I like a job that makes you start from the ground up. You really appreciate where you make it to. Like Chick-fil-a...you have to start as a greeter and work the entire way up before you can ever start looking at owning a store
