I would get a small safe, just light enough for one guy to drag. Fill it with coke bottles full of petrol and some gunpowder. Lock it up. Leave lots of bank cash bags around it and a hand written tally on top of it with some huge number as the last entry.

Guy will take the safe, leave the saws and try to open it with a torch.

I soooo gotta do that.

Not really, I'd rather be about three counties away, hiding in a bunker.:cheers:


Mr. HE:cool:
 
I put the saws in the chute of the chipper. No tool box on the one ton, only a bench seat, regular cab and no protected areas outside the truck. Might add a tool box to the chipper. Winters they come inside every night.
 
Locked in the shop in an orange case on a shelf/bench/floor depending on space and current projects.
 
Back when I cut firewood I used a F800 stake rack dump truck. Behind the cab on the stake rack I had cut slots in a 2x6 (flat side) that fit a saw bar and I bolted that to the inside of the plywood sides of the truck. At the end of the day, provided I had left 1/2" of space in between the wood and the rack I could slide the saws blade first into those slots. They held fine, never bounced out and a chain through the handles and down to the rack and padlocked kept them safe. No fumes in the truck to breathe and I could dump the load at my yard or a customer and never have to handle the saws.
 
How I store my powersaws

Here is an effective saw rack I use sometimes:):

Otherwise I store them in my Pickup, with an all metal utility topper that I got for free! Just had to shorten it up a few inches. I built the bedslide, and it makes my job much easier!

I keep mine in the garage. I built a saw horse & seems to hold my saws pretty good. I've got enough wood left over to build me a traditional saw horse.

You must be cutting some big firewood to use a 088, a 3120 and 2 660's. Those are some mean saws. Love it!! :clap:

Timber Faller most of my life so I needed some big saws:):

But They still come in handy now that I do tree work:

No question about it!! I used to do a quite a bit of felling.. nothing quite as big as you show in that one picture though. I had a 088 myself but sold it a few years ago. Sometimes wish I still had it, but can hardly justify a 880 for the amount I would really use it. My 660 can really do 99% of the big stuff. And that 088 was a heavy pig thinking back..

For sure!! Nice saws.


I keep my saws in trucks, a dedicated trailer.. or in the shop. Maybe beside the bed would be a good place too... but wife may complain about the gasoline smell..
