Now why the buck pics. I've been flingin arrows for the last month the itch is bad enough...geez guys.
You fella's from Illinios already have me jealous of the big critters ya have runnin around.

I just started pulling the Mathews back myself. Aug and sept are tough months to make it thru. I got to get going on redoing a couple of plots soon. I've always got a extra stand or two and am always looking for someone to bowhunt with. I mostly go it alone and the wife doesn't care for that.

Sean,

Now I know why that washer seemed familiar. It look like one of 2 washers for the lower mount on a Mac 105/125. So, it may belong to Mark and there probably are 2. We'll see if he chimes in.

Chris B.

Now that you mention it they do look familiar, I didn't think anything fell off during the GTG but I will have to look over the three SP's tonight and see if any are missing parts.

Thanks for the heads up...

Mark

I thought headlyj was Josh. If it's Joel, I apologize. I must have read your name tag wrong.

no it's Josh - you got it right

Talked to my brother tonight and I think he might have got a small itch...He spent his lunch hour designing a CSM...Wanted to know what size bar I had for my 084...LOL...Now if I can just get him interested in two stroke engines...

your brother was hilarious - you could see those wheels just-a-turnin when we were talking about improvements to the stock Alaskan design

When I talked to him he was talking about roller guides and all kinds of things...Will see what it turns into...

Nice Buck!! Looks like an oldie. Awesome mass and brow tines.

 

[Arrowhead]

That was an awesome saw to run...

Now I also have to congratulate Sean on picking such a great day for the GTG. I didn't have to be in the office until this afternoon so was out stacking wood this morning until about 1:00. Holy crap, thank goodness we didn't have it today!

Your not kidding, I was spraying some fertilizer on the garden today. Within 5 minutes I was drenched. 90% humidity... NO breeze.

Thank you Wendell for all the great video you took... that takes a lot of time. Thanks to everybody for all the pics... lots of pics makes any GTG thread that much better.

Does anybody recognize this?...Chris found it in the chips on the north side of the big log...Thought there might have been two of them...

Hey Sean, I found the saw that was missing those parts - SP125. If you found both of them I'll take them. There may have been a screw in the mix as well. Check your PM for details.

Thanks,

Mark

Mark,

He may have to sift thru 50lbs of chips!! Seriously, my 2100 exhaust was blowing away the sawdust and uncovered them. I managed to fish out the one you see but couldn't find the other fast enough. Never saw any screw. Maybe a strong magnet will pull it up.

Did my Homelite bail out your Mac? Just asking...

Chris B.

 

[heimannm]

Ouch!

The truth really hurts again...

What saws impressed you the most?

I know we all took our turns running other each others saws and would like each of you to list 3 saws that left a good impression on you. I know its hard but only 3 that surprised you.

Ed's Wildthing don't count as I know it left a impression on everyone.

My 3 which were hard to pick were

Ed's Pioneer P-62 because it just felt so good, looked good and ran like a banshee.

Chris's Homelite 750 because it was so much lighter then it looked and ran so strong it just waded through the wood effortlessly.

I'm going to include my own saw in this as I had not run it since I got it but my Echo CS-900EVL really surprised me. It just ran so smooth and pulled that 32" bar so easy it surprised me a bunch. Not the fastest, not slow but you could really lean on it and it kept pulling like a freight train.
