Indeed! Important not just because if the lower power output compared to a petrol saw, but also for battery life. Same is true for a petrol saw of course, but you don't notice how much extra fuel you pour in in the same way as you notice the lights on the battery indicator dropping...vtsnowedin wrote:If your using an electric saw you will find it doubly important to keep it razor sharp.

What (if anything) do you plan to stockpile for Brexit?

I am stocking up on American Bourbon whiskey, not due to Brexit but because an estimated 45,000 barrels of the product have been destroyed in a huge warehouse fire in the USA.
Price rises and shortages seem probable.
I don't even like it ! but two regular visitors do enjoy it.

That is only 2.6% of Kentucky's yearly production so considering how long they age it in barrels I doubt you will see much effect to price or supply. One of the cheaper brands so perhaps a boost to the small batch top end producers.adam2 wrote:I am stocking up on American Bourbon whiskey, not due to Brexit but because an estimated 45,000 barrels of the product have been destroyed in a huge warehouse fire in the USA.

For bourbon and branch and other mixed drinks I like Jack Daniel's "Old No. 7" But for sippin whiskey or straight shots its" Makers mark" or "Knob Creek". But compared to my beer consumption the whiskey inventory is of little consequence.fuzzy wrote:I'm partial to Wild Turkey, but JB does nothing for me - except a bad head.
