Mastermind Meets The MS661 C-M

[MasterMech]

Dang it........emails stopped coming again.

I'm not gonna mention it to Claudio though. I hate to see my posts deleted.

Randy,

I'm no expert but on a XenForo board, if you do not respond to an alert for a thread (other than one for likes) you will not receive another alert for the thread until you either respond to the most recent alert sent or post in that thread.

Hope it helps, hate to see you frustrated by software.

It does.

Did something else happen? <blink blink>

I am completely lost in this thread. The 661 has since been recalled by Stihl... Randy quit and then returned as an AS sponsor... the holidays have come and gone... and now the poor 661 thread is buried in mindless off topic thread fluff about sponsors, proper thread etiquette, site support, site criticism, vB vs XF forum tools, English training (do not use falling dawgs?), other site plugs, criticisms and references, the mentally disabled putting the hate on Randy's saw mods, etc. etc.



Its like typing to keep up with the Kardashians. And yes, I take full responsibility for some of the tangents myself... but... maybe it is time to bail out and lock this thread? No offense to Randy... or the site mods... or other sponsors... or the poor 661 being modified or its owner.

It's been happening to me as well. All of a sudden it dawns on you that you haven't seen any updates from a thread you're subscribed to. You check the thread and bingo, another 4 pages have been added and you didn't even know.

And these issues are enough to make me really hate this new software.....

I agree the thread is off on a different tangent but Randy was going to link to another 661 build thread a while back.
The no falling spikes in England had me very confused. They are important on small or large trees and on small or large saws.

 

[Mastermind]

When I get a new top end for the 661, I'll start a new thread including the first videos and pics.....

 

[Mastermind]

We'll call it Take 2.

 

[singinwoodwackr]

We'll call it, Take 2.

is that in reference to a 'new' saw thread or the # of pills for headaches every 4hrs?

 

[Mastermind]

I've lost track of things here.....and the headaches are lessening.

 

[RedneckChainsawRepair]

Well look what the dog dragged back in. Hey Randy

I dont subscribe to threads anywhere. I choose to go back and catch up when I feel like it at my pace. Just read where I left off. They all do that automatically.

 

[Mastermind]

Well Kevin, I do business on the site and the ad in my sig is my way of advertizing. If the thread is moving, and I don't post.....my sig ad is lost.

Making that understood has been like pulling teeth.....

[bryanr2]

They have been listening to SawTroll, who as I recall, removes his saw spikes as a nuisance. Me, I lever the crap out of my saw dawgs in cuts. The UK falling method is like this thread: confusing, contradictory, and people seem to thrive on the controversy and mud slinging. The politics of chainsaws.

Aussie Aussie Aussie!

 

[komatsuvarna]

that's what im thinking!

I loved mine like no other saw I've had, My used and abused back wouldn't let me use it much though......

 

[Mastermind]

Give me time fellers......I'm not giving up so easy.

Hooray Stihl !!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[bryanr2]

I still havent made a single cut with the 395? I brought home a slew of logs on Saturday so soon I hope. Too dang busy.
