Great Pics Mark!

Nice collection Hoss.

 

[belgian]

Wow, a lot of nice saws in those pics, unlike the characters behind them...:hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:
Hoss, congrats on a fine collection !!

Looks like a fun day Heymann, I really would have liked to join you.

Great idea, Mark! I travel for a living..... Guess I need to start packing some PPE and a chain file.

 

[belgian]

I got me one of those Stihl log rollers like the ones behind Mr. Thall... got the log stand option too.

I made a log roller myself, and borrowed the Stihl name to make it worth a dang... I only used is once, and noticed the hook radius is a little too small for bigger wood.

btw what is a log stand ... ?

More travel plans...

B200driver, if you overnight in Cedar Rapids anytime get in touch, we might be able to arrange something. I am 80 miles from the CID airport and know the route all too well. Des Moines is a possibility as well but I am about 120 miles from the airport there.

Belgian, I will be coming through Belgium sometime later in the month traveling from Amsterdam to visit a customer in France. We are supposed to spend a day or two in Belgium as well with a customer there. When I know the plan for sure I will be in touch to see if there is any way to pay a visit.

ever hear of the mirgols its a type of mushroom that grows in them mountains ?

i thought they were morel mushrooms, i've heard of them, but don't know anything about em...

i also made a log hook a few weeks ago, i was all proud of myself, went out to use it, and the dang thing broke in half (i used sprinkler pipe, and one of the joints was weak, and the pipe itself broke)

Dang Tom--I didn't know you were such a little fella.

 

[epicklein22]

I can see why the ladies like to come into Tom's shop. Good looking guy, No homo.

Uh, what?

 

[buzz sawyer]

Always happy to see the "Doo" and the crew - sawing away having a good time. Them's some fine lookin saws too! What's that you're sawing on - telephone pole? Almost looks like walnut.

Great thread!

 

[epicklein22]

Uh, what?

I have read before that Tom has a large amount of female customers. I can see why because he has good looks. The "no homo" part is a saying we younger guys say when we don't want to come off as a "gay" like calling Tom a good looking guy.

Mark,
that's great news. As soon as you know your travel plan, let me know and we'll arrange a visit to my place, show you my collection and have a nice beer togehter. I live about 70 miles east from Brussels, close to the dutch and german border. I travel a lot myself so let me know in advance so that I can 'arrange' accordingly.

Thanks Mark

I'm glad you pointed me to this thread. It looks like you had a great time with some big saws. I have been pretty busy lately and not had a chance to hang out on AS much so I missed this. Man what a collection Hoss has, and getting a chance to meet Hoss and Thall all in one day is sensory overload for a chainsaw guy. That is one fun time. JR

 

[mtfallsmikey]

Boys, I am SOOOOOOOO hurt!!...Thall is only 1/2 hr. from me!!...Why don't a bunch of us do eiether a Mid-Atlantic or Va. GTG???

 

[Chris J.]

Nice photos, great saws, & even better folks!

I'm envious...........

 

[hoss]

I customized my chaps with the spinning flywheel cover on the 73 right off the bat. I wasn't quite man enough to hold it away from my body while it was running. Hoss will have to remind us which big Homelite saw this is.

More yet, don't go away.
