Great day in Northern VA

[hoss]

If you don't mind, where is his dealership located? I live down in Luray, not too far from the Northern Va area. I'd like to check it out.

Tommy's dealership is located at the TW Perry store in Leesburg VA.

sweet saws

Nice saws Hoss. Looks like you guys had a great time. As far as a MidAtlantic GTG I'm in. But, I often have to work weekends so if I'm free I'm in......J

 

[7oaks]

No Va GTG

Yes, very nice saws Hoss. I think I could find Sterling for a GTG I'd be coming out of Springfield on my way to Barnum, WV...Carl

 

[hoss]

Well, got another homie 750 done and on the "Collection shelf" also a mac 250 and a pioneer 3071. In another couple of weeks the other two 750's and the echo 1001 will be on the done shelf too. Oh yeah and another mac 125 that will have a new piston. I guess there is never a "set point" with chainsaw collecting.

Hoss making another cookie fly with the Homelite 990-G. Hey Bill, would you like a piece of this one?

A pair of strong red Homelites.

Hey, there's more to come...

I love this saw. It is one of my best looking beasts and is as strong as the day is long. When I got it it needed to be cleaned and have the carb rebuilt and the air vane was a pain to get just right but it is one of my best running and easiest starting saws now.
