Didn't see a thing :msp_rolleyes:

Oh, that post, I just saw he had lots of RED rep.:msp_w00t:

I did not see the post but, if it was a woman's name followed by 2 digits that goofball has been spamming under like twenty different names.

No idea who it was, Roanoker494 saw it too.


Anyway, i think i was over complicating the safety concerns on this "wee-beastie", i built. Thinking more about it, i can just set the carb with no idle function. I mean, if you left off the trigger, it dies, idle speed screw is non-existant. That will eliminate complexity of engineering a aux. kill switch. There will still be STEEL guards in place

This may be a dumb question but I have never been to a GTG. Based on the posts and the number of saws that folks are intending to bring and the fact that most including myself will allow anyone to run any saw, does it make sense to put name tags on the saws. It might make it easier during the pack up process. Or is my Nuc Power background making it more complicated then it really is?

You can't tell your saw by its smell? You need to spend more time with them.

I don't, these guys are straight-shooters, hard working, regular joes. You won't have to worry about any saws missing...

Got some work done on the guard for the 2150... I am a guy that can weld, I am by no means a welder, so be gentle...lol As you can see, there are no shoes on that cutch...the center hub is there only becuase i could not find a nut to fit the crank.

I hope we don't have one of those "hold my beer and watch this" episodes.

Won't be none of that horseplay junk going on here, at least I will not be envolved in any.

As far as tag our saws, don't think that will be needed. I would know my saws anywhere, plus I have my serial numbers documented for insurance purposes.

Nope, dont drink. This is a "plastic" case saw....i just feel safer with some steel to cover rotating parts. I have broken chains on this type of saw.....that plastic clutch cover, and wimpy chain catcher dont do much.

You got that right, Roanoker. I won't be involved in any horseplay, either. Just trying to make that saw as safe as i can, for me, and everyone around me.

Carguy, i have made numerous test cuts with this saw, nothing has occured, except a derailed chain. But, murphy's law says that if it is going to grenade, it will do it with 20 people watching, I am building these steel guards to beat ole' Murphy to the punch...lol

What is your take, Dean.???..I see you down there lol

 

[igpoe]

safety

Nobody needs to fear for their safety. Every person attending this GTG has the right and responsibility to address ANY unsafe action by ANY person.................period. Horseplay must be totally removed from any area containing saws. Excessive use of alcohol will be dealt with and everybody reading this knows what excessive means. We will be safe. We will be considerate and courteous. We will enjoy the saws and each others company. Everyone in attendance will be a friend of everyone else. Hope everyone agrees with this. I don't anticipate and have never seen a problem at a GTG.

Carguy, sorry if i came across a bit rude. I just kinda took offence to the "hold my beer and watch this" comment. I used to drink heavily, and did some pretty dumb things while under the influence. Sober now, have not touched it since my duaghter was born 4 years ago. Again, I am sorry if I sounded hateful and rude. Now back to your regularly scheduled GTG chat...lol:hmm3grin2orange:

Looks Like Fun

Well Michael I am sorry that I can't make it. I had it on my calendar and then TCC changed the schedule and I have to teach that Saturday. I was looking forward to coming and bringing a few saws to run. Maybe next year...

Dean, you may not remeber, but the first time i was down there, you gave me a pioneer2270. That saw has sat under my bench since then, well she is going together as we speak...lol. Waiting on a P&C from chainsawr, this one had a boogered spark plug hole, that someone attempted(use that term loosely), to repair. Cleaned her up, replacing lines...should be a runner soon.
