A properly tensioned chain when you lift on the chain to support the weight go the saw, the drivers as long as they are in the slot of the bar it is good to go, too tight and wears the bar faster. Also a modern chainsaw is very reactive to throttle there is no need to rev the saw before you...
Have never lubed a sprocket on a chainsaw. I was a C faller working woodland fire in 12 states, heated my house with wood. Never had a sprocket fail before the bar was shot. People do not realize how important the bar is to have a good cutting saw. I replaced bars every year.
Have a high school buddy coming to icefish going to make him biscuits and gravy, the secret is the sausage. Cheesy hash brown pork patties from the local grocery, mince that up in the gravy delicious.
Drove from Minnesota to Palmetto Florida last week, the snow and ice were from Iowa to Alabama, trouble free motoring then again I am a Minnesotan I drive in winter conditions 166 miles a day back and forth to work. Maintain distance and hit your marks steering.
Couple things from last night's game, Kirk put your shirt on, do viking fans feel foolish for doing the chant you stole from a soccer team after losing when they did the stupid skol chant?
That is on the coach 100% trying to be too cute sending 3 lineman to approach the refs and trying to keep quiet about who is actually eligible. It was announced on the stadium PA system that 70 was eligible not 68, coach should have called a time out.
The trumpeter swans are back, we did have 7" of ice now we have open water in the middle and the ice by the shore is melted back about 10'. The 3" of rain over Christmas and temps in the upper 40's didn't help.
I have gotten 10 ply soft since I moved, used to be doing horse chores heating with wood, doing work around the ranch. Now I hit a remote on the fireplace and get old and soft. I do miss hunting where I live but sitting in a box stand with the grandson is a good compromise.
