I bought and installed a new 72-link chain. The chainsaw was working today, but it is running a bit oddly as if the carburettor is gummed up with oil (likely because I left the fuel sitting in the chainsaw). This may clean out by running the chainsaw more regularly.

After opening the screw on the carburettor and starting it like that, it seemed to clear out whatever had occurred (maybe the carburettor had been flooded by my tilting the engine). Turned fuel off, opened carburettor screw, started, stopped (no fuel), replaced carburettor screw, turned fuel on, started engine fine :)

I have tested the scythe by cutting grass around the house and it appears to work correctly.

The scythe was in the upper shed. I have fixed it using the short-term solution: cutting the broken part of the snath and reattaching the blade to the end.

Actually, I bypassed the need to fix the screw holders by simply holding the bolt tightly with pliers while tightening the nut with the ratchet/socket wrench. This seems to have worked.

I just tried changing the blades now. Three of four blades were easy to remove, one required angle-grinding to remove.

Note that Taeben's father might have access to a pipe-metal-bending device that we might be able to borrow to make a very heavy duty scythe handle.

I am not currently sure where this scythe is located...

The chain has jumped off the chainsaw during operation. It was getting quite stretchy. It is likely time to purchase a new chain for the chainsaw. At the very least, it needs tightening up again.

Extension cables are running from the Cottage to the lower shed (at least, the metal twin boxes, for now, which is very close).

We have now a tall metal ladder, probably too tall and thin for cleaning the Cottage gutters, but suitable for affixing to the lower shed (Pineapple shed) to repair its roof.

The new spark plug didn't seem to alter anything, but I also didn't attach it extremely securely. More investigation is needed.

I picked up Rover from Doug and it is working very well. Still waiting on a new pipe part for the engine (helps suck debris out of the filter to stop it blowing smoke, which has only happened twice so far), but it's okay for the interim. Doug says I can pay him after the new part arrives.

Rover is currently with Doug, who is waiting on the new belt to arrive :)

This mower is no longer starting, so needs fixing again.

@Lilith acquired a new spark plug to fix the issues Rover had with starting. We have installed that and it starts again.

The chainsaw was used to cut a tree branch to stop the earthmover who worked on the Lily Pad from breaking it accidentally as he was building that road towards the South-East.

Eric the Mower was retrieved from Yamanto Mower and Garden Centre and was working for a few days, but has become very difficult to start since then. Instant engine starter was needed to provide ignition to start with, but is no longer working.

Thanks so much for fixing this @alita! Draining the fuel seems to have fixed it.
