Why thank you Sam, I would be honored....I warranty all my service work for as long as I know the person if its a saw (or trimmer) I built...other than scored cylinders, because after break in that's on them.....parts, well they're iffy, but 99% of the time never have problems.... may be a fuel line or carb here and there...bigger ones get a kit smaller carbs aren't even worth the time to rebuild, especially if the owner used ethanol...Stihl is just a good company therefore my favorite and easiest to warranty labor, etc, (plus I have a great dealer)....although I do work on other brands quite a bit too though...

Quite a nice collection mark usa- for a husky guy

That 029/290, which was in a garbage pile and made out of spare parts and other saws is now a 64.5cc (390) saw thatll hold 14k all day in the wood ...craziest port job I've done so far...wanted to "test" the limits of a clamshell motor first...my 460 is just a monster...can't imagine those guys out west climbing 150' reds with 880s!!!!

Nice saws guys, keep em coming!!! Anybody made a back rack for their pickup that can hold a few saws??? If so I would like to see it as that's my next project for my work truck....

Here's a 372xp woods ported with a 42" bar and crazy exhaust I did a. Couple years ago...still falling trees for a guy who is not exactly nice to it

Ethanol is one of my favorite beverages, but I don't let any of my small engines or my MC drink it.

I completely agree....although i no longer drink it either ....some people say it has no I'll effects but I have seen a mikuni carb completely eaten through the float bowl from a guy who ran 10% in It its whole short life...not too mention a host of other fuel related problems..in fact, I would say that's 90% of the stuff I have to fix is fuel related...good things for modern cars maybe, but not high compression 2 strokes...shit Stihl even recommends that you dont use it....

Me personally, I buy only premium non ethanol 91 Oct and treat it with stabil and some mmo whether I'm gonna use it right away or not, for all my small engines, even the kohlers...I also run my mixes a tad rich especially the newer the motor...everyone HAD to meet 50/1 by the epa....I do about 45 or so to 1....pulling a muffler off every now and then and cleaning the ridge of carbon, or port matching it is a good idea in 2 stroke longevity by the way....

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
