When you use a chainsaw to cut your hole how do you keep the oil off the water. Do you have dedicated saw without oil?
I've heard of guys using veggie oil as well in dedicated 'Ice saws'. Might be something to consider.
they make a material called "sorbants" that will absorb oils and not water. they are used by industry and spill clean-up crews. ever notice the big socks floating on the water around oil spills? same stuff. you can get them in the form like a big roll of paper towels.kind of pricey one 16"x18" pad costs a bit over a buck.http://www.mcmaster.com/#oil-absorbent-pads/=5l6e3cif you know someone who works in a factory, they might be able to fit a couple in their lunch bucket for you.
i mearly suggested they would fit in a lunchbox. i made no allusuion as to how they might get in there.i'm not a lawyer, but i watch one on tv
Hand saw all the way, no matter the thickness.
I have one of those too, they are still a pain in thick ice..but they do the job.Anybody use one of these...I picked one up off Craig's list but haven't had a chance to use it?
