The badge is still out there, but the Germans, BMW I think, bought them out years ago.
Like so many precision manufacturers, they got started making guns.
Nah, I have specific fuel for the thing, stuff that doesn't go bad after months of no usage. Not cheap though.

I live in logging country. The local gas station sells 91 ethanol free. There are stations all over the country... you just have to know where to look, see:

I will be getting started here in about 4 weeks or so
so i built a klyv
https://www.google.com/search?q=klyv...lyv+firewood&*
pretty badass mashup between a 1.5 ton engine lift and mk2/3 vw jetta rear twist beam (so can pull like trailer)
+ vw rear springs; some elevator weights and a traditional hydro log splitter wedge
chopped moar wood in one session than ever before!
that was 5 days ago
arm still in sling
tricep $#@!ed at elbow; could be bad
pro tip
klyv good for straight grain; big knots = injury to self before klyv
ps...typing lefty sucks

It's better than the alternative I suppose.
I hurt in places I didn't even know existed.
Just a bad day altogether. Tilled a clients garden and felt back pain when I went to clear underbrush. So I figured I'd switch up and pressure wash the drive way. Damn pump went out on washer. Loaded up and by the time I got home I was wracked. Took Meloxicam for inflammation, ate a budder cookie and took half a hydro. Alternated heat and cold every 15 mins. for hours. Thanks goodness the lil' lady is such a good nurse. Now that it's morning I'm beginning to think it ain't a muscle. $#@!. On top of that the equipment that I was unable to load just got rained on in the morning dark. Double $#@!.
Still, I'm not trying to one up presence. Unless this $#@! goes on for 3 weeks.
i get my firewood delivered. 2.5 cords chopped for 450 bucks...
i've burned through 5 cords so far this year....only 4 last year total....still have a few more months of burning to go, although i am now slowing down on trips to the shed.
so... that worked out to 34"forecast says foot of snow on tuesday

Watch yourself brother.
They tend to throw us out when we're no good for work anymore.
Seriously, hope you're healing up.
Just an amateur fire pit wood burner but I had fun splitting some rounds that fell on a co-workers garage last year. The old hand me down double sided splitting axe was a bit of a chore getting the large rounds started and I needed something like a sledgehammer for another project so I picked up this toy.
Now just need to find a source for this year's rounds since I shouldn't count on any more trees falling on garages.
Truth forever on the scaffold, Wrong forever on the throne,--
Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own.
About 50 days later and I'm about 90-95% back to having an elbow again. Just started using it this past few days. I can do the basics again; tighten pipes, tap on a few nails, twist wires... all pretty good; lil pinch here and there; certainly not driving framing nails any time soon. That took way too long to shake off and was pretty miserable for at least 30 days. Pro tip: always respect the connective $#@!s in yer elbows; don't want to $#@! with them. This might just be the year I give in on some of my bull headed maul splitting ways and move on to a hydraulic splitter. Sure as $#@! though... soon as I'm back to having an elbow... mrs has the honey do list posted on the living room wall again.

Glad to hear you are feeling better...take it slow.
I'll put Mrs AF on this thread, see what she has in her herb arsenal that may help ease the pain and help the healing and maybe prevent it in the future.
Get some Arnica Montana gel or lotion it helps inflammation and pain. Speaking of inflammation Turmeric is an excellent supplement for inflammation (1700mgs daily). *Caution: If you have gallbladder disease should avoid using turmeric.
Magnesium chloride is great too. You can take 1/2 c. H20 and 1/2 c. magnesium chloride flakes in a pot on medium heat until it dissolves and then you can put it in a spray bottle and spray it to the injured area.
You can also make a Capsaicin paste with coconut oil and rub it in the area that is tender. (1 tbsp Cheyenne to 1 tbsp of Coconut oil.)
“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
