Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Dave, one for the motorhome https://trade.bunnings.com.au/xu1-18v-2 ... 395106,one for home https://trade.bunnings.com.au/ozito-190 ... 5_p0403090 or one for both https://www.totaltools.com.au/brands/eg ... iZfizdkyTL grunt that makes a petrol chainsaw feel like a very heavy toy, starts every time, depending on battery size, either you run out of go before it does, or the time to enjoy a coffee the battery is recharged ..... These are serious chainsaws as well as being quiet and smoke free ..... and no need to go to the servo for fuel just when you got started

I know it's hard to believe, I had to check it myself, it rained enough here in Mannum to have a few of the dots join up .... then it stopped, but that is the most rain we have had for quite some time ......

I already have one of those 18v Ryobi saws. It's OK on little stuff and green wood, but no good for firewood.
The bigger electric ones are what I want, but not in my affordable price range., at present.
I think I'll opt for the one that Jon posted, if I can't get my little McColluch going next time I have a crack at it.
Cheers

You know that the cord you pull out is for tying to a post out front and hope that someone steels it to save the frustration the next time you try to use it :lol:

I have a Husqvarna battery chainsaw.
It cuts the tough old 4” thick redgum sleepers easily, and one battery lasts longer than I do!
🥵
Great for the firewood stack…

SWMBO has a (birthday gift, as requested) Ryobi 6” chainsaw. Great for pruning trees branches up to about 5~6” thick, and with the 5A/hr battery it can last all day.
For the skinnier branches she uses her Ryobi power secateurs. 😉👍😁
Regards & God bless,
Ray
