that is what i was thinking too, but could see the numbers clear on the recoil starter housing. didn't know i could zoom in, either used or while vid/movies are playing. it even adjusts the pixel back to vid quality, up to a certain zoom level.

I use Yellowhammer's method for a hand crank. It works very well for me

I'm always amazed at the work you can do with simple tools. Bucking a windfall is never fun but a couple of times I though I was about to watch 'when accidents happen'. Be safe out there!
