Hi There, wow this forum is so fast it is hard to keep up. It must have been ported and polished with the rakers taken down. I dont even have time to look at the Timber Tramp forum anymore hardly. That 3120 has your name on it Bruce.
Any American who takes a coat check for their firearm at the CND border gets a free 150$ coupon that can be redeemed for a Stihl or Husky at any Canadian Tire Store here in Canada and gets a 25' roll of chain as well in any pitch or gauge of their choice, or a plastic carrying case.
Sidearms of any type are virtualy nonexistant here in Canada, although single shot rifles are issued above the 63rd Paralel, only during the spring when the Polar Bears come off the Arctic Pack Ice for the Spring mating season. Chainsaws are inefective in this Northern region above the treeline, but are used ocasionaly by our Indiginous Peoples as a means of building their igloos.
Electric saws are very handy here due to the ocasional shortage of fossil fuels, that are usually rashioned out during these times for Arctic chainsaws and Honda generators.
Robert, I have a friend who works for the CNR Railway in Naniamo, and with a few strings pulled we could have your V8 saw loaded on a flatbed and railroaded out here, but the antifreeze must be good to 75 below Farenheit. Sometimes Wiskey is used in this application when antifreeze is unavailable, Dennis in Clearwater could make sure the block hasnt frozen as it eases down the mainline thru the Rockies.
Cheers too all,
John
