Just back from enjoying a visit with some old friends in Ocean City, Md.

Just buried an old friend today.  Your post and todays service reminded me that we need to enjoy fellowship with those who we have grown-up and grown-old with.

Sorry for your loss bud. Seems everything in this world can stop except time. Enjoy it with those around you. 

[ebinmaine 78,064]

Agreed.  

 

Do what it takes to make yourself happy and content as long as it's not at the expense of others.

And if there is an old friend that you keep saying you are going to go visit some day, don't wait because you may lose the chance.

 

That has happened both ways for me in the last couple of years. I have had a good visit just before I lost a friend and I have missed the chance and lost a friend just before I went to visit.

Much like a garden, friendships need nurturing, attention, and some quality time to thrive.

I am at the stage of life where many of my friends have gone home to be with the Lord so the remaining friends are cherished that much more.

Trina and I have learned to team up over the years and talk over where a tree will land. She'll show me where to cut the mouth and hinge it. Most often she's within just a few feet. 

Very late to the party, but do your saws have index lines on them?  My Huskys have a line that tells me if I cut the mouth here, it’ll fall there.  It’s quite helpful.

That's a new one for me, never knew saws had them. Any pics of how that works and what they look like?

Follow that line then you cut your mouth, that’s where your tree should fall.  

 

Video explanation on the way…

My saws have part of the handle that is at 90 degrees from the blade.  I use that as a sight.

New to me as well. I've never had a husky brand. I've always used the actual bar as my directional implement. You guys got me curious now.

Many years ago, I bought an inexpensive 5x8 trailer.  I used it quite a bit until about 15 years ago when it was just sitting. I recently bought a golf cart to bring camping with me, and seemed natural to get the little trailer going again.  So it got 2 new tires and rims and today new LED lights and wiring with ground wires running to each light.

I learned I can record, edit and publish a short instructional video in 45 minutes today 

[ebinmaine 78,064]

I have two saws in my workshop to look at today. A late 1990s Jonsered 2054 Turbo 49cc, and a 2017 Echo CS490 49cc. 

Jonsered has a black top. Echo is mostly orange. 

 

 

 

The Jonsered has a mold line up just as your Husky. The Echo does not. This does have some logic because Husky and Jonsered are the same parent company.

My little Stihl 250 has one on side but not on top. Above the letter I in Stihl.
