DIY Home Improvement Projects With STIHL
Landscaping
TOOL STIHL MSA 120 C-BQ: – This lightweight lithium-ion battery chain saw is perfect for grounds maintenance and smaller jobs. It comes equipped with STIHL’s electric motor, which runs quietly and is extremely energy efficient, lightweight, and compact. This chain saw also comes with STIHL’s Quickstop ‘Super’ chain brake for improved safety.
TIPS: Check by-laws, be careful of hydro and phone lines, and wear protective glasses. You cannot burn wood in open pits in many communities, so research disposal options. You should never work alone with chainsaws and you should always ensure that someone else – who can help in an emergency – is within a close distance.
Updating the garden
TOOL STIHL HSA 45: –TheHSA 45 lithium-ion battery hedge trimmer provides great cutting performance for trimming shrubs and bushes in the yard. This model comes with a double-sided cutter blade, screw-on tip protector, and an integrated 18 V lithium-ion battery with charge level indicator.
TIPS: Go slow, have a plan, and wear shoes which cover your toes. Cut the vertical sides of a hedge first, using an upward and downward sweeping motion and moving forwards along the hedge as you work.
Home renovation (inside and out)
TOOL STIHL TSA 230: – The STIHL TSA 230 is the world’s first battery-powered cut-off machine. With a 230 mm (9”) cutting wheel and emission-free cordless technology, the TSA 230 ensures clean work both indoors and outdoors. Its light and compact design with ergonomic handle allows for ease of use and comfortable operation. This machine will be your new favourite tool for construction and renovation projects.
TIPS: Wear a mask, wear protective glasses, and ensure spatial distance between you and anyone else working on your home renovation project. Working with power tools can throw up stones, debris or dirt, and your hands and feet will be right on the front lines. STIHL offers an extensive range of special gloves and shoes to protect your hands and feet.
STIHL’s lithium-ion products are designed to operate in noise-sensitive areas, such as around the house and in the garden. The lithium-ion battery packs are highly efficient – making these STIHL products better for the environment.

So far this year, my husband has built two different decks with friends. It’s time spent being productive, outdoors, and bonding with your tribe. That makes me think of another DIY Home Improvement Project tip…don’t be afraid to ask friends and family to help out. Many hands make light work (especially if they are handy hands).
Disclosure: This post is in partnership with STIHL. Tips are my own.
We have several old trees on our property that need to be cleared. I think my husband would love a new Stihl Chainsaw for the job.
We have so many projects to work on it would be hard to choose just one. I do know that the tasks we have planned would be so much easier to do with some of these tools! Stihl is the one brand we usually check out first when we need to buy a new tool or gadget for around the house.
There’s a lot I want to do with my back patio and my shed just needs to go so we can build a new one. We haven’t gone into the planning stages yet though.
My husband’s favorite brand of tools is this one. That’s all he likes to work with. He loves to do all sorts of things with his hands and these tools are the best for him.
My husband loves doing projects around the house. We are working on renovating our patio right now.
They all sound like great products. I need that saw to cut down some of our trees in our yard instead of paying ridiculous prices for someone to do it for me.
I would love to get this chain saw. We cut a lot of wood to burn for the winter. I need a light weight chainsaw to make it easier for me.
We cleaned up a lot of brush in our yard this summer. A chainsaw like this would have been a big help. I will have to add it to my wish list.
I have a lot of DIY projects on my list. My husband and I bought our first home almost a year ago. We have a lot we want to work on. Getting a new deck is one of them.
We have SO many trees- I would LOVE to get this chainsaw. A great addition to our home tools arsenal!
I so wish I knew how to use one of these. But once we finally own a home and not an apartment, I’m sure we’ll figure it out!
We have to trim some of our trees and then decide if one needs to come down, it had ants and then a woodpecker went after the ants. So frustrating but nature has it’s way sometimes.
That’s a great collection of tools to get prepped for the winter! With winter coming, there are lots of little home DIY projects I’d like to get done.
We are currently remodeling our fireplace! Just ripped all of the old tiles off and trying to move forward with it. We could definitely use some new tools to help
My husband loves doing all of my fun DIY projects I come up with. These would be great tools for him to look into.
As a teen, I lived in Oregon for a while. This would have been so handy! It can really be difficult to do this type of work without the right tools. They are so worth it!
Great tips. We are currently working on a few DIY projects around the house and could use some of these tools!
I love a good DIY project! We could so use this saw!
These are great tips for a DIY project. These tools are so cool. I am sure that I could use a few of them for my own home projects.
I love starting new DIY projects! These tools would help to get a lot of the things I want done around the house completed. Great tips! Thank you!
My husband is Mr DIY. These tools would be great gift ideas for him.
I love DIY, but I am a little afraid of chainsaws, lol. Thank you for this 🙂
Stihl love in this house too 🙂 There is something sexy about the sound of chainsaws lol What can I say I just love it when things are getting built
One of the DIY projects that’s been on my list for a long time is to build a custom-sized step stool for our kitchen.
I love DIY projects but my skill level is not there and neither is the hubby’s. He does like power tools though!
Decks seem to be a DIY project in our family and they always look great.
We just bought a new place and have so many DIY projects. Thanks for the tips!
My husband has several STIHL products and he uses them often but I do wish we made more things with real wood
