Fire Wood / Not impressed with Husqvarna 372
« on: October 24, 2015, 06:00:24 PM »
I added a Husky 372xp to my saw aresenal.  The dealer gave me a fair deal and added a second chain at cost.  In the first hour of cuttung a large ash log, it threw the chain. The chain wouldn't go anymore. I put the new one one and it worked well the next few times i used it.

It threw a chain again on a 6 inch log. Worked fine rest of that work day.  Now it isnt throwing oil. I did an internet search and found forum commentary that the oiler feed is plastic ans know to break easily.  I am taking it in and hope warranty covers it.

I have a stihl in the shop that is getting its oiler replaced. Never had such issues with ant Stihl.   So far this 850 dollar buy isnt too hot.

Three out of the four homes on my road are on OWB.  A county road driver who plowed the road this week, said they would be happy to bring neaby tree removal wood, whenever the have it.

I said bring it, and we will cut it all up and divide it. Pretty sweet.

My brother replaces the old type brodges with some new type of culvert, and could likely bring me scrapped out ones from job sites, and I could likely hit up the county road dept. For what they drag back.

I wouldnt want to try cutting one to size. Doesnt sound like how I want to spent time.

Fire Wood / Drain culverts for moveable storage?

Hi. My first post. I am in the second week of my central boiler 6048. Will be illegal to buyin Indiana this year. A neighbor has an older system and came by to look mine over.

During conversation he heard od people using 4 foot diameter culvert pipe to store firewood. Just use hay forks to pick up and transport. Serms pretty slick. I thought i could cut up the fallen trees around the farm, lfill the culvert at the cutting site, then deliver it to the boiler when needed.

Anyone using this method?
