One of my chainsaws, now 34 years old, a Husquavarna is still working, I cut birch with it every summer, and often a few big poplars that die and threaten to fall on our access roads. It works in Eb but drops to as low as Db under heavy load. I don't like my father in laws new one, it's in G. Sounds all wrong.

I did work with a guy in the early 70's who cut off his own frostbitten toes with his axe. According to the rest of the lunatics that worked in that bush camp. He teetered more than walked, and was a bulldozer operator with a pet raven.
