Here’s a question for you you more serious chainsaw guys… What’s a good option for a hard case for the little Stihl 180? Stihl sells a medium and a large case… they say the medium is for the 170-500 series.. It’s about a perfect fit for my 291… I can fit a few tools and a spare chain in there...

:D

and the DOW is booming.. its sitting at 44,700+ right now.. the all time record high close was 45,014.. Its very possible we'll see a new all time high within the next couple of weeks if things continue to trend the way they have been.. which should mean everyone's 401Ks, IRA, etc are booming...

the $15 saw in question :) picked it up, brought it home.. hit it with a can of compressed air and then wiped it down with some degreaser... put a little fuel in the tank and a little bar oil in the reservoir.. just a couple of pulls on the handle and it fired up with zero issues.. I figured...

Pretty common among most schools I think… Professors in every degree program I’ve ever attended got their masters at one institution and their phd at a different one… way back in the late 90’s I asked a professor that I’d taken several classes from why this was common and why they were pushing...

Jonsered still command pretty high prices whenever you see one pop up at the various auction houses, eBay, etc.. I’m not sure why husqvarna discontinued the Jonsered lines.. by all accounts they were popular and had a good piece of the North American market at a time that Husqvarna was running a...

Friedman and Becker are still cited routinely in both BBA and MBA coursework. They are definitely noteworthy. I find it very cool that you were able to study under both of them directly. Im a bit jealous if Im honest about it :)

Just added another Stihl to the now growing collection.. I might have found the deal of a century on it.. I picked up a used MS180 16" residential saw.. dirty as hell, and missing a chain (easy enough to replace), but running just fine at an auction just outside of Dallas.. $15 plus a 12%...

That article is from April, when Musk was still aligned tightly with Trump and all of the left wing MSM was desperately trying to poke holes in Elon.. Notice that now in July, they’re all largely silent on Tesla? Also consider the author… he is CNN’s “bankruptcy” hit man.. about the only thing...

Correct.. they dont just give away their patents.. they essentially trade them.. and then use the tech they obtain through those trades to develop more patents.. and more tech.. which gets applied across multiple Musk entities (SpaceX, Boring, etc etc).. and the "open" pledge is also...

Tangible goods isnt how Tesla is making the lions share of its money though... It holds 3442 global patents across 1073 different patent families.. and is filing for new patents on an almost daily basis.. its patent portfolio has a current value of $4B.. some estimate that the patent value...

Just bringing this back up to say... its been about 6 weeks since this post.. Tesla continues to rise (its at $320 today), as does Musk's personal net worth (Forbes pegs him at $410B today).. All of those Europeans laughing at Musks demise, the fall of Tesla, etc.. and all of the leftists that...

I would argue that adding "Ivy" to a resume certainly wont hurt anyone.. and many of the most successful people I know have found a way to do so, even though many of them didn't earn an actual degree at an Ivy.. Having Cornell, Dartmouth, Brown, Yale, Princeton, etc (even Harvard and Columbia)...

You can honestly spend as little, or as much as you want.. price is going to be driven by a number of factors within your control.. the biggest ones are: Country you want to hunt in the lodge/outfitter you want to hunt with the animals on your "list" the amount of time you want to hunt Ive...
