Hi db
Think positive!

I'm positive I suck.

3 fence posts dug out.
3 fence posts replaced.

1 six inch diameter tree cut down which was growing through the fence.
I got to go buy me a RYOBI 40 volt chainsaw.
It was great.
I wish I would have bought it in the morning when we started on the tree with a hand saw.
Ugh.

Now I hurt.
Hopefully, fence panels tomorrow.

 

[SEIndSAM]

No fun ACT.....

 

[SEIndSAM]

I'm positive I suck.

We all believe you suck too.......

'We found 2 more broken posts. But they can wait.

 

[SEIndSAM]

Wind breaking the posts???

What do you think of the chainsaw?

They rot at the ground level.
All the original posts have been replaced.
The ones I've replaced today were ones I replaced probably 20 years ago.
The rot at the ground level, then snap during the winter.
So, every spring there's usually 1 or 2 to replace.

RYOBI 40 volt chainsaw.... AWESOME.
We spent hours on that tree in the morning.
We stopped for lunch, I bought the chainsaw.
Got home, in 10 minutes the rest of the tree was down, and chopped up to where we could load the pieces into my tractor lawn mower trailer.

And, it uses the same battery as my weed whip, leaf blower, and hedge trimmer.

[GregD]

Glad you like it. Might need to look at them.

 

[actaeon277]

My dad has a small chain saw. But it sat for who knows how long.
So, we couldn't get it started.
He's probably got to drain the gas and clean out the lines.

But, the battery ones, no problem. And I've already got 3 batteries from my other yard tools, so this makes the 4th battery.

Man. I chased everyone away.
