    Now I've got the itch!

    I spent the day cutting down and cutting up a big Hickory tree (30" on the stump) yesterday. It was damaged in some wind 10 days ago. I just started to use Klotz oil in my small engines like the weed eater, leaf blower and chain saw. If spending about 6 hours in the sweet aroma of Klotz oil...

    New Work Station

    I have been considering building something very similar myself. I am not sure if it will be wood or steel yet. My question is; do you have some sort of lock for it when it is in a mid height position? I wonder about it leaking down if it is not in a full upright position. Thanks -Jon

    Dyersville,Iowa?
