Is it an April Fool's joke or for real? How tough is that meat?
I'm not buying one, but I guess you could say that women have electric
knives, and now there's an electric knife for manly men.

It's a joke. Chainsaws don't really do well at cutting soft
materials. That's why butchers use bandsaws.

Hard to say. IIRC she and her husband are not do-it-yourself types,
so I don't think she has much experience with power tools.

I know one guy who is a bit of a lunatic (or was). He's actually a
nice guy, really. He claims to have butchered a pig with his dad's
chainsaw and made one hell of a mess. I tend to believe him too, since
I also know his past history (his dad also being the boss of the
Adelaide chapter of a certain bikie gang).

Of course. Chain saws are too wide to cut meat. You would loose too
much. Big bone chips would be a problem, though most people might not
make it past the smell and taste of the chain oil in their meat.

Smaller 14" chains are not all that wide and I'm certain any bone
wouldn't be an issue. You could flush the oil reservoir and refill
with vegetable oil. But you'll still ended up making a mess of course

Moron.

Great way to burn it out.

Veg. oil is about viscosity .05W.

I actually do that, and have for a few years. The vegetable oil does get
gummy and *overly* viscous if the chainsaw sits unused for several weeks.
I use that chainsaw to cut up fruit wood for cooking.

Flush it with petrol/gas each time after use and refill with bar oil
when not using it that way for extended periods.

>I use that chainsaw to cut up fruit wood for cooking.

Using veg oil certainly won't hurt a chainsaw sprocket, bar and chain
(the only things that can possibly be damaged) for that short period
of time on soft materials. I've also been doing it for years to cut
fruit wood to make wood chips for the smoker.

That's ridiculous, how much wood are you talking for smoking food that
an ordinary bow saw wouldn't be more than adequate... you must be one
hellava weaklink... I'm a lot older than you and I cut up huge fallen
trees with a bow saw every year. I have a chain saw but often it's
less work to use a bow saw, and a lot safer. A bow saw is also
greener.

You can use vegetable oil in the chain bar lube reservoir, like I do in
my little electric chainsaw that I use exclusively for cutting up BBQ
wood from my fruit trees, mostly my dead peach and cherry trees. We
had a hot, very dry summer 2 or 3 years ago, and it killed a few of my
fruit trees.
