Chainsaw Caddy

When the tree came down into our backyard last month, it took too many trips to get all the chainsaw bits to from the garage to the yard before I was able to start working. And even more, it seemed, to put everything away.

I also know that I need to take the chainsaw to the old house soon & don’t want to forget anything.

Whipped this up this morning without leaving the garage.

It holds the chainsaw, tools, a gallon of bar & chain oil and two gallons of fuel. If I don’t want to use the expensive pre-mixed fuel, I have a tall two gallon gas can that fits in this spot as well.

I added two runners to the bottom to keep the plywood deck out of the mud. The runners are screwed in from the top, so I can replace them when they get too nasty.

Replaceable runners. I used a wood rasp to knock off the corners & edges.

With a bachelors degree in history, I turn wrenches for a living. I’m most at peace when I hear the wind in the trees or the gurgle of a brook. I’m a believer in the Renaissance Man, as epitomized by DaVinci engineer, artist, soldier, statesman. As Heinlein said, “A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyse a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
