Hi Steve, I like your lil french frier, Susie shipped your roller nose on Tues. If luck will have it, there will be an extra special guest at McClure P.A., his name is Ed Heard and Ken Dunn described him as being light years ahead of most saw builders. Ed was the guy that I lied and said it was me in that video with the snowmobile handle and the .38 sec cut with his 371 in a 9.5" poplar. Please welcome Ed when he shows here, he is registered as ehp, and is one of the finest persons I have met.

Hi Ed, It is great to see you posting, with guys like you and Dennis Cahoon posting it is very soothing that there are vocal people out in the wild blue yonder that will share their knowledge and experience. Where's Tommy Martin?
Sorry nerds, but I am just beside myself with the expectation of actually learning something new. HeY Dan, drop Ed a line, he will hit you with so many flurries, you will think you're in a snowstorm.
Thanks from Frank's Planks

Hi Steve, thanks for reminding me about greasing the tip every hour. I set the alarm and pack a grease gun under my pillow. It greases much better with the saw on 1/2 throttle lock.

Bear attacks cyclist
No shouts, no screams as man dragged toward bush ‘just like a rag doll’ before rescuer shoots animal
FORT NELSON, B.C. (CP) --- A cyclist was clawed, bitten and dragged by a black bear into bushes along the Alaska Highway on Saturday before a motorist killed the animal with a rifle.
Dennis Greffard, 31, of Clearwater B.C., and his wife, Pink, were the first ones on the scene and were credited for helping save the man’s life. After they approached the bear another motorist came up and shot the animal.
The victim, Mark Marconi, 37, of New Jersey, U.S.A, was in serious condition in hospital yesterday in Fort Nelson “but it appears eh will recover,” Constable Mike Rupley of the Fort Nelson detachment of the RCMP said.
“He’s pretty well chewed up,” Constable Rupley said of Mr. Marconi. “He received 150 stitches to his head and another 150 to the back area and arms. But no bones were broken.
“We have no idea when he’ll be able to leave hospital. It’ll be a while because they have to watch out for infection complications. Bears aren’t too clean.”
Mr. Marconi had flown from New Jesey to Whitehorse a few days ago and was planning to cycle from there to Dawson Creek. Last year he cycled from Anchorage to Whitehorse.
The incident occurred about 190 kilometers northwest of Fort Nelson.
“He told me he was cycling down the road and suddenly came upon this bear on the shoulder,” Constable Rupley said. “He wasn’t too familiar with wild animals but had seen another bear earlier on his trip and it had run from the road into the bushes.
“When he stopped his bike, the bear started toward him so he threw some luggage down on the road to distract him. It mulled over this a bit and he in the meantime threw his bike down and started running.
“The bear chased him and grabbed him by the back of the neck before dragging him 30 meters into the bushes, and through a two-strand barbed wire fence to boot,” the Mountie said. “Bears are fast, for a short distance-they can even outrun a horse.”
“Believe me, it was nightmare,” Mr. Greffard said in Whitehorse. He said that when he and his wife first arrived on the scene he thought: Here’s a nutty guy playing with a cub. “But then I realized the bear was dragging him and he was just like a rag doll. The guy was half sitting up and the bear was behind him: It had his right forearm in its mouth and was trying to drag him farther into the bush.”
The victim called out. “He didn’t shout, he didn’t scream. He sounded weak and just asked me to help him. Otherwise, there was silence.”
Mr. Greffard said he jumped from the roadside across a small ditch and started shouting and swearing to get the animal’s attention. “He dropped the guy and started taking a few steps toward me.”
Robert Andrews in a pickup truck approached and Mr. Greffard flagged him down. Andrews took a 30.06-calibre rifle from the truck, loaded it and took aim at the animal.
“We had to wait a few seconds before he could get a clear shot because the bear’s head was down,” Mr. Greffard said. “But he dropped it with one shot to the left side of the head.”
Mrs. Greffard then drove their car to a nearby lodge, where police and an ambulance were called.
Constable Rupley said the bear weighed about 200 pounds and appeared to be a mature 4-to-5-year- old in excellent health. The animal will be tested for rabies.
Thanks,
John.

Beaver Bar
Whats wrong with you Gypho, get with the program! Can't you find one of those west coast beaver bars. Without one that 088 is just another Canadian boat anchor! And that chain!! Looks like a loop of barbed wire. I'm starting to feel sorry for you east coast Canadians. Keep your eye out for that new Arboristsite chain filing and chainsaw rebuliding class coming soon. Right now they haven't quite figured out who's going to teach it, but don't worry there's plenty of good guys out there. Got to go rebuild my hip doctors saw, see ya later! P.S. Great news paper story, and what ever happen to Beaver Girl? , and don't ever hang up on me again!!! Dennis

Hi Dennis, I just finished tooling up all my saws, it's frozen now so I get to fall some good stems tomorrow.
As artillery, I have an 088KD, 999PP, 066KD,385KD, 346KD. They are all outfitted with some not so dull barbed wire. I will take some pictures tomorrow of a 13 ft. circumferance Maple that I hope will make vermeer.
Sorry about the call, my battery droped dead mid sentence, but I thought you had hung up on me when I called you a woodtick.
