Does it taste like everclear?
No, just gutted a ranch.We just have more for you to exercise your saws on if you ever get that remodel done. What are you building? A mansion?

Remodeling an entire house is a big project. Not something I would want to take on. At ease, carry on, smoke em if you got em. I continue to hope for it all to go well.

You been in the birdseed again Bob?
So many birds here this summer there are hardly any seeds left. This tread has been very quiet.
Old guy!!! I think I remember you saying you do all square filing now?? I did my first chain and am wondering if you have any advice?
Actually, Bob, I don't do any square fileing, I bought a simington grinder and it showed me how bad my square fileing was.
I also have 3 round grinders so I file very little anymore.
If you've done one chain you have more questions than answers.
Just try to get the corner of the file on the corner of the full chisel tooth, both outer corner and inner corner, inner corner not as important as the outer and try not to cut into the side strap. You'r gonna file away a lot of chain before it becomes easyer, and you will need more files too.
There is a lot of threads on the forums with good pics so do a search.
You still running old yellow iron?

We coaxed mweba into coming to Danbury and cut at Denny's yesterday. Maybe it's time to get the old band back together!!!!!
Old and yellow, yes and I'm not really sure how many I have! I'm kind of a sucker for things people gave up on getting them to run and these saws are just simple machines. Good to hear you are still playing with saws!
Yeah, still running saws. I just sold a couple but I still somewhere between 35 & 40 left.
I go through about 2 gallons of bar oil a year.

If you want to liquidate some more saws Jon, give me a shout.
What do you guys think about a GTG at Denny's on Dec 5th and/or 6th? Would be nice to try to get reconnected again!
Weather permitting of course....................

That might be possible...
I'm up fer that.
My stepson needed a saw so he got a 353 & a 365, it's hard to part with good saws, very hard!
I have bunch of older & odd stuff I would sell, nothing you would want tho.
Ok, might sell the 550 & 562, good strong saws but I have all these 346s, ported 350s, 357 and ported 359s that put a bigger smile on ma face.
Ain't nobody gittin my 572 tho, love that saw.
If this goes any further we should start a new thread.
Plans are in the works for a GTG at Denny's on December 5-6. Cutting and normal GTG bench racing on Saturday and for those that want to stick around a full blown cut for Interfaith on Sunday. We have between 40 to 45 cord left to process in the oldest log pile-I think we can git er dun if Mother Nature cooperates!
