should say - be careful who you go drinking with while camping...

My DD and SIL did wake up in their tent one time, with 6 inches of water under their air mattresses. The DW and I were already up and cooking breakfast when DD woke up and put a foot over the edge of the (floating) bed. Sounded like an air raid siren going off....

Something like this-

Imagine the kickback on that saw!

I thought that and is that motor really big enough to run a chain that long?

Had my doubts too, so looked it up. Yep, probably, here's an engine that will spin it up -
Husqvarna Chainsaws 3120 XP®
And here's a 5 foot bar for that engine.

Using the ol' eyeball measuring stick the bar in that pic is longer than 5 feet unless that guy is shorter than he appears. Now I gets to wond-rin' if that isn't a saw that's no longer made ---

Thing is, when I find those pictures on the inter-webs, you can never really tell what you will find, really.

I do have something kinda long for my Farmboss that is almost too heavy on the nose for me to handle, at least for very long, but if I'm actually cutting something, I let the bar hold the saw and just pull itself through. It's when I'm not cutting anything, I'm real ready to shut it down and put the bar guard back on. Oh yeah, some of the older saws, before EPA got involved, had some power. Not sure what saw that is.
