Husqvarna Robot Coming to a Lawn Near You 2008-03-06 18:16:00 This ain't exactly about chainsaws but it's close enough - Husqvarna, fine purveyors of chainsaws around the world, has up and made a lawn mower robot called the "Automower". This here doohickie will keep you grass mowed real nice and is powered from the sun. Pretty nifty I suppose, but I still like getting on the back of my John Deere. But I guess if some one were so inclined as to buy me one of these gadgets I'd be inclined to use it. To get her going, you simply lay some wire around your yard so the thing knows it's boundaries and then you just turn it on - the sun keeps it full of juice and your lawn nice and smooth. I'm sure it won't be long before Snapper, Toro and Honda are also making some sort of automatic lawnmower for the masses. Read more:Robot
This Ain't No Way to Remove a Tree From Your Backyard 2008-03-01 12:19:00 Ain't this some funny sh*t? I reckon them boys were drunk - it seems pretty obvious to me that that tree was going to fall on that truck. What a bunch of idiots, they're pretty lucky nobody got hurt but that sad little pickup.Thanks to ettf.net for pointing us to this funny video.
Hot Doggie! The Stihl 280 Chainsaw is Better Than Wrestling 2008-02-26 12:33:00 Hey there sawdust lovers - I gotta tell you that I surely do love my Stihl MS 280, maybe even more than the WCW. This baby rocks! She's durable as all get out and she's so garshdon manageable that you barely even notice her seductive kickback. She's also lean and mean weighing in at just under a dozen pounds. My bud Kevin Kelly also reckons this a here chainsaw can tear up some wood- I've used three or four other brands of chainsaws but when a 50-foot-tall, 34-inch-diameter walnut tree fell on my barn, I decided I needed a better chainsaw than I could get at Sears. A brand new Stihl model 280 with a 20-inch bar cost $420 USD at my local store and I don't regret one penny. Some say that it's no longer available in the U.S., can anyone confirm or deny such rumors? I reckon their false Read more:Chainsaw

Another Funny Chainsaw Commercial - This Time By Nike 2008-02-24 17:58:00 The commercial below is pretty similar in theme to that Stihl Chainsaw
commercial I posted yesterday. This one was banned for some reason but I couldn't reckon why, seems pretty tame to me, but then, I like chainsaws. Did a little diggin' around and it looks like the woman in the video is a track star named Suzy Hamilton and the video got booted off the boob box 'cause "critics said [it] glorified violence against women." Whatever. Read more:Commercial

Three Kinds of Sawmills - One of Them Be Right For Ya' 2008-02-23 14:07:00 Usually I don't go for none of that hippie nonsense but this week Mother Earth News come up with a piece on sawmills that I couldn't see rightly ignoring. This detailed article on sawmills breaks down the good, the bad and the ugly of the 3 major differences between portable sawmills, those being: chainsaw mills, circular sawmills and band sawmills. Below I'll give you a quick run-through on the three of them, given that a four page article is a lot to read- Chainsaw MillsPros: these suckers are cheap and relatively easy to move Cons: slow, wasteful and the cuts are rough which means the wood still needs to be finishedExamples: Total J100 and the Alaskan Mark III Circular SawmillsPros: these suckers are fastCons: pricey, wasteful, hard to operate and relatively rough cutsExamples: Mig Read more:Kinds
