Damn Cliff, I just wanted to borrow the wrench for the turbo tie rod swap.......didn't even think it WAS power ;)


For me, I loan everything to a FRIEND, nothing to anybody less. The good news is that I make friends easy enough, so if you need something, chances are you'll be able to borrow it.


Hey Toby, my mower needs a new blade, want to borrow it???

The little howeowner saws can be more dangerous than a profession size saw because the little ones are so light that they can kick back easier/faster. I loan out a lot of tools (and guns for that matter) but if I had a chainsaw I'd be hesitant to loan that out for liability reasons.

Swedish. German. It's all the same.
:D

Chainsaws...more things can go wrong with a chainsaw than a bad divorce.
I cut a fairly large amount of wood every year (with a pole chainsaw and an old Stil) and I look like Robo Cop when I'm cutting: protective chaps, gloves, steel-toed shoes and a full face mask.
It was that one close call that got my mind right!

I have exactly one friend that I would loan anything I have.

Other than him the answer depends on who is asking for what.

Growing up my Mom's best friend was a nurse at the local hospital ER. She would always say to stay away from chainsaws and motorcycles.

I'm 0 for 2....but still have all my limbs and most of my brains (for very different reasons).

i rode many a mile on husky dirtbikes. those things lasted forever. in fact an 82 wrx 250 i once owned is still riden by a friend of mine. its ugly as all get out now, but 1, 2 kicks and it fires on gas that smells like laquor.

this girl i know, just got a husqvarna sewing machine. came in a orange box and everything. i bet it revs thru denim. haha.

Send it to the shop for mods. Add a dual port muffler and do some porting. Extend the redline a few thousand rpm. Doesn't have a 2 stroke engine? We can fix that!!! :D

Exactly, my brother who lives three doors down from me, he and I split the cost of an Echo chain saw. No one else.
