really hadda make d time to reach trinidad hose
Interchem had some good hoses. I got mine there. Never failed me.

Same hoses Trinidad hose has.

I'd call interchem and verify first because supply chain issues has a lot of things out of stock.

Edit: good year is the brand.

Where i can get some good quality (eaton, bussman, cooper, PEC) ATC/ATO fuses locally?

Been looking/feeling some fuses that came with some marine grade distribution block and the quality, material feel is so much superior to the ching-chong spec.
What you using it for?

I saw a couple of fuses laying around somewhere but I can't remember where. Said to myself lookey here, I could use these but we started phasing them out.

If push come to shove there are some custom car audio distro blocks that can work in the marine environment and use blade type fuses. Friend bought two bags of blade fuses for me from abroad if you need a handful.

Why blowing fuses BTW?

Oh

Well is for sub power distribution for some stuff in the van

Part of the build was to include all marine grade fuse blocks and breakers.
But i gonna add some stuff soon and realize the "sample" fuse that came with the distribution block is really high quality....like the snap-on of fuses. When compared with them ingco fuses i have around.

And no, i not having any fuse issues or blowing any, i just want some high quality ones if i have to buy
Cuz i literally need like 1-1A, 2-3A and 1-5A

Is a OCD ting...

I have two different brands of polyethylene five-gallon gasoline cans. They do not share the same threads. Years ago, I was able to buy replacement nozzles and caps at both Bhagwansing and Peake.

received lil chainsaw attachment for drill
paid $16usd for it
cheaply made but it works
blade chain tension adjustment a little dinky but hopefully it will hold out

i bought this instead of a full battery powered unit since i don’t trust the batteries that come on those cheap tools and might be hard to get a replacement battery if not common.

disadvantage of this type is you need to hold it with your other hand to prevent it from spinning.

I saw those things and figured it was gimmicky. Have you done anything with it as yet?

I got my surface cleaner also from Greenworks.
Not bad at all.

yeah cut some stuff, lime branches etc

works quite similar to the equivalent stihl one, except the 2 handed requirement.
the chain design has shallow depth bite by design I guess to not cause too much strain.

these mini chainsaw gimmicks are the rage now, everybody selling them on amazon ebay

Bought a mini chainsaw on Amazon for 35 USD about the same price as the chainsaw attachment for your drill. Buy the mini chainsaw instead.

also no need to buy the 6", buy the 4" since you will be using it close to the base anyways

For the small branches I use a cordless Sawzall with a 9-inch Milwaukee AX blade. Rather spend money on the better brand blades like Diablo or Milwaukee than toys like that.

Not seeing the use of that attachment that a Sawzall can't do better and purpose built for the job.

i have a cordless sawzall too but I find its a pain to use with all the jerking esp on small branches
works better on large branches where you can lean on the branch
my dewalt one is quite powerful and has a lot of recoil

I happen to have the diablo carbide tipped metal cutting blades and they are killer

so ive had this since 2018

worx saw.jpg


$75 USD

works pretty good on 99% of the things i have to cut

mango tree branches, pommerac tree, jamoon, bamboo, took a while but i even cut down a massive mango tree with it,
the pole is just an attachment, you can use it as a chainsaw on its own

the only thing it wouldnt even scrape was a chenette tree, had to end up renting a stihl for that one

electric so no fight up with engine and maintenance


i've had this since 2018 as well

hackzall.jpg


bought it when i was doing a lot of farming and had to do alot of irrigation, works great for cutting pvc, nice clean cuts, plenty 2 inch schedule 40 so it saved alot of time

orderd these over the years, they work great for cutting small branches where i dont want to run the extension for the electric chainsaw/polesaw, and its very easy to work one handed


purning blade.jpg


i got this earlier this week, tried it on a cherry tree branches so far and it keeps binding up/getting stuck....hadda play with it a bit and see the scene
