I still provide the highest quality of (almost)weekly updates in the NWS Section. As long as I have the stamina to slug through all the skanks and hoes that exist in the Interwebs, there will be Pr0n on OR!

More than likely, she prefers to deal with children, than with us!

Two methods: get a set of Chain files, and run the files every little bit -OR- swing by Harbor Freight and spend $20 for an electric chain sharpener, and do all your chains in one afternoon. Since I have multiple chainsaws, each one has at 4 chains(yeah, I get a bit carried away), it can take a whole 4-6 minutes per chain to sharpen. Depending on how much wood I've been cutting, this can be a once/month, or as seldom as one/year.

I have a Husqvarna and a Stihl. I've also owned a Craftsman. All 3 are/were good chainsaws. The Craftsman had the sear's warranty, and I had that bad boy completely rebuilt every year. Ran it at least 300+ hours/year, burned through just about every part on it. The Husqvarna is the most particular about fuel. If the mix is slightly off, damn thing won't start, and I have to go through the process of purging it. When it runs, it is really nice, and haven't had to replace a damn thing on it. The Stihl is the Shizzle! I have run that bitch through multiple bars, tons of chains, and even the crappiest fuel(the shit that kills the Husqvarna). It all boils down to what you want to spend -vs- how you are going to use it.
