Going from Horizontal to Vertical in Freehand
....so here we go again, best grab your safety glasses, mickey mouse ears and put your chaps on, as we journey outside into the wonder-full world of workin’ with wood….
Safety is:
1) eye protection2) ear protection3) leg and groin protection....and….if we were entering the woods to take some trees down….
4) head protection!
Safety is; having a good mental disposition….or right mindset!

Homelite 26 LCS and more…..
....and so I thought I would toss in a few more photo’s of the Homelite 26 LCS model chainsaw, along with some shots of the gear reduction drive system, 2.75:1, that it used….
....and along with the belt reduction, one will also notice the external plumbing line for the oiler, at the entry way into the chain bar. The oiler was manual, and thumb operated and while checking this one out on Saturday afternoon , I can affirm that pump is sti...

Homelite 26 LCS
I thought I would post an-other one of my collected chainsaws here from the bygone days of ‘golden oldies’....
....and when one really gets to studying these ‘beasts’, one can also much more appreciate where we are today, with chainsaws in terms of safety, (don’t you just love the safety word) weight, horsepower and ease of the cut in the wood….
....the Homelite 26 LCS was introduced in 1951 and discontinued in 1953….

More Safety, Chainsaw….Broadax
Well that’s it….LOL
....I’m not able to blog my story I had thought to put in here this morning, since I was looking through the forums and I saw a question asked about; “If you where a hand plane?”! This got my mind to turning and so where I was going to go with “Slabbin’ at Wood” is out the door for today.

Slab Wood Tales
....in the working of the wood, the stories of those who came before me, are revealed as enlightened nuggets of wisdom, where ‘ancient ones’ give thanks by offering to tell me their tales….
So today I thought I would travel some ground….or is that lay some ground work here and post some pictures. I’m going to throw in a plug here and say thanks to Zooomr for all their work that they have done, and have made available to all. Using this site ...

McCulloch Super 33
In writing this story about “Slabbin’ at Wood’, I have thought to include stories on:
1. Safety
a) ....and you will hear me talking off safety till you probably get sick of the ‘safety’ word. However with and when working with chainsaws, I am a believer that safety first on the job, will likewise take you home safely at last!

Wooded Mixed Quantum Anomalies
....i am as a sliver ridding on the finger of your wind, come blow the expression of your breath across my face, till in the utterance of an all knowing mind, there remains that never un-changing desire of limitless grace….
—-can this rogue of a past thought that waited to captivate, be any movement of great consequence in the dilemma of need, since by your giving breath as life-givin’ acutilobate, i am extolling the virtues of finding my...
