My local (Saint Paul) ECHO dealer is advertising 20% off all ECHO power equipment in stock on April 1. Called to make sure that it was not an April Fool's joke. Does not apply to accessories. Folks might want to check with their local dealers if interested in anything.

Say, I'm wondering if anyone is interested in making some slabs for a neighbor of mine. He's got a couple of oak logs 48" diameter (allegedly) by 10' long that he wants slabbed up. I'm located about an hour East of the twin cities. PM me if you or someone you know is interested. I told him he'd be looking at $4-500 as a ballpark.

I am still alive. I have not been on here in a long time. Saturday, July 22 at about 4 pm we will be having our 5th year of Chainsaw Racing at the Chisago County Fair. It is always a good time and everyone is invited to come and play. We have classes for stock, woods ported, and new this year will be an additional unlimited class. Might try a few different things to keep everyone on their toes. If you can make it great, if you can let me know, even better. Thanks

Interested but my calendar has July 22 on Saturday...

 

[andydodgegeek]

Whoops, you are correct it is Saturday July 22.

Last year was an absolute blast. Hoping to attend again this year.

I mentioned this to Sarah as well. If you could do a 35 cc and under class for rear handle saws that would be cool sort of like the mighty mite races but open to all brands.

I like the three tier system. You could call unlimited class the Matt and Adam grudge match lol.

Sheet. Top handles should be able to run in that class too. Sounds like a couple more echo 355t will be running again and my old 360t. Plus I got my new 22.3 cc stihl to try for fart n giggles. Count me in I'm going

Just got in a semi load of brand new cottonwood pallets at work. The warehouse sure smells nice now...

I thought that it would be more fair to have the top handles in their own class?

Yeah that too buttttt if the old echo lays the smack down on a couple new echos and nick stockels worked over 200t then might let it get spanked by a rear handle saw

Do you have the new husky battery saw?
I heard lots of great reviews on the husky top handle, after the battery gets charged and cycled a few times they go longer than any gas top handle saw

Man oh man Phil that was a cool demo you gto to try. Do you get to keep the saw after putting it to the test and and thorough evaluation? What's the battery and charger cost for it?

Also is it a variable speed or on and off?
How much for saw kit? Could make for a cool 120 longboard project

 

[Philbert]

What's the battery and charger cost for it?

MSRP is $299, with 2.0 Ah battery and rapid charger. It is available on a few sites, and should be available at TSC and HD soon.

I will bring it to some GTGs for folks to try out.
