I have a Silky Big Boy and Silky Katana Boy 500 permanently stored in the fourby.
The Katana will saw through a 6 log before you could fire up the chainsaw...(if I had one).
Best pull saw money can buy

No wonder theyre quick, with the grind on those teeth they cut on both the push and the pull stroke and very little kerf, a thing of beauty.

I have just paid today for one of these from Stinky Pete. A Detech 80cm Concentric coil :inlove:
It won't arrive for a few more weeks though, so I'll have to wait before I can spend some intimate time with it.

I nearly got the Katana, but figured I wouldnt need to build a log cabin. The Big Boy will rip through a 6 log quickly too, just a few more pull strokes. I believe the trick to these is let the saw do the work on the pull stroke. :Y:
I love an outside fire, but with our travels somewhat curtailed and living in suburbia Im mindful of the volume of smoke you produce, so the kids all chipped in as my belated birthday present and I topped up the coffers and bought a Biolite Firepit. This unit has a battery pack on the end which controls a fan which in turn blows air through 51 jets (loose term) to help stoke the fire along and help reduce that following smoke we have all encountered.
Gave it a run for the first time the other night and it was pretty frugal as far as wood usage went, three bits of red gum about 9 long and 2 1/2 in diameter and a bit of old pine kindling gave a burn for about two hours. Impressed with the portability of the unit, fan on max gives a bit of a whine but not excessively so and the majority of the time it was on low or medium anyway. On low the unit will run for 24 hours. The battery pack will also run USB lights or recharge your mobile phone.
Plan on doing a cook on it sometime next week.

Is there much weight to it?

So whats it like Jack ?Jaros said:
Gday OzzieAu, about 7kg, has a few nifty features, firebasket inside sets at two levels, low for firewood, high for charcoal, briquettes heat beads.
The beauty of it is you could fill it with firewood for travelling if you were doing an overnighted or picnic day.
Top grill slides out of the way to allow adding more fuel if need be. Ash chute in the bottom for easy cleaning but I must admit it burns everything down to ash pretty well. 10mins after I finished with it I carried to an undercover area, both handles were cool to the touch. For the tech gurus you can connect it to your phone via an app and control the fan plus it gives you an estimate of battery time left.
Cheers.

I still have it in it's box. Being 20kg I can't handle the weight/bulk of it by myself and Carolyn had a fall a cuppla days ago and has hurt her right hip and right ribs we await the result of her xrays. The neighbour who i would ask to help is always out in his caravan for weeks at a time-no rush I'm sure it will be ok.
It's a nice looking box though
Hope Carolyn is ok Jaros. Take care.

Couldn't help but have a chuckle about it being a good looking box Jaros
Hope your partner is ok.
Maybe try something like Airtasker. 30-40 bucks should do it. Get a couple of people over to unpack it and set it up.
Best Wishes to Carolyn for a speedy recovery Jack.

There's no rush. Our neighbour bought one of these a few months ago. He's an avid Netflix watcher and there aren't any complaints. I have a Bose sound bar in front of the tele atm so there won't be a quality problem.

Big TVs are great, I have a 75 inch, but it limits what you can watch.
Anything lower than 1080p looks shocking.
That that leaves only 6 free to air channels, which mostly show reality crap.
So I download anything interesting to me.
