i have been a chain saw and outdoor power equipment repairman since i was 20 but after hurricane Andrew i was installing roofs on house's (go figure) i was the ground man and ran the saw to feed the guys on the roof plywood they called me "the sawman"
when i came home to TN (after i got my insurance money for my demolished house). i was working in a repair shop that sold stihl handhelds. the "sawman" name had all but been forgotten till one day someone came in and had a saw that would not run and yelled "let me talk to that "sawman!" this was back in 93 i have since been know as "the sawman" the 65 is the year i was born. had this handle since 95 when i got my first PC.

The story behind mine is back when I first got on the internet and joined my very first forum,a horse forum, and I was trying to think of a user name, Oat Bucket came to mind because my horses so loved their oats. As our little urban farm moved beyond horses and into goats, we found that our lives continued to revolve around feed time and feed time revolves around the oats in the bucket. Later when we were trying to think of a herd name, Oat Bucket Farm just fit.
