I would second that request to take someone's 3120 for a spin. I am pretty sure I have never run one, at least not that I can recall.

I don't know if this whole GTG thing allows ignorant rednecks engaging in buffoonery, but on the chance it does could someone PM me the directions. I'll be rolling thru on my way out west and I am betting there will be some top shelf entertainment for CAD sufferers. Neither my saws nor myself are very good lookin' but we still manage to get the wood on the ground. I'd be willing to bring some grillin' meats to throw down for all the hungry folk as well if that is OK.
 
You asked for it. Here's my saws loaded for my first GTG, March of 09 at Grandpatractors:

The little 170 Stihl got stolen, the 290 and the little Echo have been rehomed to my brothers, the 271 Oly sits down in the shed waiting on a full resto one day (it was Dad's saw, lots of memories in that one), and the 7300 was brand spanking new that day.
 
Three tanks? :msp_scared: Was your chain dull?
It might have been possible but doug has got pretty dang good at sharpening chain!
Is any one going to have a 3120 xp at the gtg? CAD. I want to try one first.

Really Doug... Really:msp_confused::msp_confused:
Well you better get a 42in bar with some 404!!!! LOL!!! Would give you another big saw so the 395 can go for a port job!:D
 
Yes three tanks. 46" id oak. It was very hard dead oak. Started with new 36" chain. I pulled 20 18" wide rounds out of that 30 ft trunk plus the stump that was 60" at bottom. Lots of wood chips on the ground.

Also the saw was new stock then. So it was running very rich. I can bring stump to gtg if anyone wants to try some cuts. It makes a great work table at the wood piles now.

I was keepin the field level with .325...... But if you insist!:D

I only have three sizes of chain and I like to keep it that way. 3/8 low pro, 3/8 50 and 3/8 63.

I prefer 3/8 half skip, Stihl RSLHK for a 42" on newer high rev 90+cc saws. On a 2100 404 maybe the better choice.

Bring it if you want. You can run one of my 394's with a 42" in it so you can see how life is on the dark side. :msp_laugh:
