I'm pretty sure Cale is at Webster Springs WV today.

How did he do?

 

[Boogieman142]

[les-or-more]

Good deal see you there I was going to call you to see if you were going to come.

[troutfisher]

Hey Les, tell us about this log we have to cut with the worksaws. Hardwood? bark on? :msp_w00t:

Do you know how hard it is to get concrete to look like real wood? My diamond chain eats it really good though!

Got an extra one? I wonder what I should use to sharpen diamond cutters......

 

[Boogieman142]

concrete, I'll make sure to bring the IMS. Cut the wood the night before again, just make sure you have enough blades to do it. Need me to show up early to help set-up? Also do you need my stand? Will there be any chopping?

How did he do?

I havn't heard.

So will that be the only rule for the stock class?Cutting through the hardwood log? What about chainbrakes? Do stock saws have to have them?​

 

[Boogieman142]

oops, had to re-read that it was pending on enough entrants. Hardwood log, hmmmmm

A diamond file of course!

I think the hardwood log is a good idea. Any real worksaw with a work chain won't have any problem cutting a cookie off a log then stepping up to run.

The log is to keep the work saw classes for work saws so they don't have to do tech checks on the saws. There will be bike saws there so I don't see a reason to keep out saws without a chainbrake. Chaps, eye and ear protection are required and saws must fall into the cc of the class.

 

[Man of $tihl]

Ok cool. :msp_thumbup:

I'll keep it small enough so a 16" bar will reach.
