If you can't be bothered draining and cleaning the saw, just grab a couple of strips of wood 3/4" thick by a foot long.

Lift the front handle and put a strip under, then do the same at the back.
The blade and blade housing are now clear of the water . . . no rust, no muss, no fuss.

Real handy when you tell yourself "Oh yeah, I think I gotta cut somethin' tomorrow." ;D

Consider the Earth’s history as the old measure of the English yard,
the distance from the King’s nose to the tip of his outstretched hand.
One stroke of a nail file on his middle finger
erases human history.

gary95340: Hello, I read the Jasper Point post, 2009. I am part owner of the KAREN LYNN claim. It’s located in Hunters Valley. It’s a Jasper load claim. To my knowledge it is illegal to collect rocks in the Lake McClure area, owned by MID. Jasper Point is in MID Dec 7, 2024 23:57:23 GMT -5

gary95340: Jasper point is a geographic location easily located on a topographical map. It obtained its name, because Jasper was mined there at the time of the railroad. I visited the site by boat during the end of the last drought. Dec 8, 2024 0:08:15 GMT -5

amygdule: I like Jasper
