Its a joke from the tv show Tool Time. Every absurd tool that was brought out was the 'Binford 6100' and it would be a chainsaw powered with a ford V6 or something like that.0

I've watched many of the rotarys move tremendous amounts of snow! What an awsome site. Many were converted to diesel in the 1950's but still retain the steam heated "wings" and whistle of course!
Moving snow with massive energy and speed would be my dream retirement job if I ever get there!Serving Northern Maine HVAC & Controls. I burn wood, it smells good!0 -
