Check out my new toy
« on: January 07, 2011, 08:22:10 PM »

Well I have been trying to get a bigger saw for bucking up logs.I found a good deal on one online,but I had to wait to see if I was going to have a down week at work.My buddy said he was buying a new MS 460 ,and that I could have his old saw. :thumbup:
I paid for the 2 new chains he just got for it.So I have $60 in it so far. :D
I am so stoked getting it.Stihl 038 Magnum,with 25" bar 3 used just sharpened,and 2 brand new skip tooth chisel chains.
I have to thank the lord for looking out for me and blessing me with great friends.I can't wait to sink it into some wood sometime soon. >:D

You lucky dog, glad to see you got the 038 magnum tho!  They are a beast.  It will cut really close to his new 460 and the older 038 mags are made better I beleive.  Pretty long bar for firewood tho!  You'll love the saw!  I love mine!

Hey that's funny.I forgot you said something about having an 038 and how nice they are. ;D
I am glad I got it.The price was definatly right.I was going to buy this 066 on another site,but I told the guy I had to wait and see if I was going to get laid off for a week or not.If I was I was going to pass on it.Well they said we were going to be down for one week.SO I sent the guy a message saying I had to pass on his saw.Then my buddy tells me he was picking up his new saw last night ,and that I could have his old one.I was just amazed at how that worked out.

What the hell, they aren't motorized or retractable or anything! with your fab ability I was expecting nothing less lol.
They will surely make cutting easier.

Dang! :o   tulenutn2o and bikeralan, between the 2 of you a guy can't get a break!LMAO!!!! ;D ;D ;D Bring your steel and I will tell you how to make your own gasifier. >:D >:D
I don't know if I will top the boiler project for a bit.I have a winch bumper(picked up the new winch saturday)   ;) to build for my wood truck,and perhaps a nice flatbed for it.
Buddy of mine did get a new big  Timberwolf splitter that i might need to go see about improving on in my own way ;)
We did talk about a feller /processor attachment at work the other day!How funny you brought that up. :D

I have my good and bad days at welding, but mostly, I'm with ugly and strong. ;D I welded up some beadloks for the racecar a couple years ago...........let's just say they worked but certainly were not tubeless. Jackel, your gasifier looks just like mine in operation, I am hoping it is a good one and lasts a long time.

Well guys I have my gorilla welding days sometimes too. ;)
I am very happy with it so far.I have a few things i plan to tweak this summer when I can shut it down.
Oh and I might have an project to top thi furnace if I can wrap my head around the electronics part.I think I would like to try and build a cnc plasma burn table for the shop.I can build it,but just not sure on the computer electronic side of it.Going to have to do a lot of research on this subject :o
