And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

For my half acre of oak and brush, this looks useful
Can't comment on that one. I have a Ryobi electric chainsaw which works well (it's bigger than that one), but it leaks oil like a sieve. PITA honestly.
They are ok for light use when they are new. After a short time real wood cutting requires many many batteries. If you can handle it get your old saw running again. Its better than what can be bought today.
I've run Stihl saws for better than 40 years. I'm convinced. That said, a couple of years ago my Stihl was in the shop and there were some issues with the repair, and I needed a saw yesterday. LSS-I bought a Remington at a local farm store, heard all of the nasty shit about Remington saws but I needed a saw and the price was really right. Bought it, used it and I'm still using the thing. I treat it a hell of a lot worse than I ever treated the Stihl saws and that Remington just keeps cutting. I can't say anything bad about Remington saws.
I like that they are selling it set up for a popular brand battery. If I wanted/needed one I'd look for one that uses the batteries I already have.
On a side note I have a wired 14" chainsaw from Harbor Freight that does the infrequent chain saw job I need done. It works well if I keep it sharp and go slow, being electric I don't need to keep oil/gas mix around.

ReplyDeleteIt'll take that milk 1/2 an hour to cut that log.
