Rush City is about 10 miles west of Grantsburg and about 5 miles south. You thinking about coming over?

Whoops I was thinking Chisago the town for some reason.

I just got in from the shop and my arms are soar. I put my old 77 Husky back together and got it running good, cleaned up about 10 saws, did a little tuning on 3-4, and I hand filed 16 (all 20-28" bars). That's enough for 1 afternoon. I still have about 5 more to sharpen tomorrow. I felt like I was running a saw shop out there.:msp_smile:

Mark and I just took the Briggs off the wood splitter and put on a nice N.O.S Honda GX 340. Sooooooo much smoother, quieter, and more fuel efficient too. Just did some splitting this morning and it worked great.

Gotta love those Honda engines, seem to be better than the others in so many ways.

Here is a picture of the race cants for next weekend, I will be bringing them loaded on my old 47 Dodge.

What time does the festivities begin next Saturday and what time should a person plan on getting wherever to help out. Looks like I can make it just need to know times.

 

[andydodgegeek]

Races start at 4 but it would be nice if people showed up by 3 or earlier so they can register and give a helping hand if needed.

 

[Stihl Livin]

I'm planning on just coming to help out with whatever is needed. I'm not into the racing yet. If I need to come earlier let me know or if I need to help haul stuff in let me know and ill bring the truck

I would like to, not sure if we will be done sidedressing corn by then. I hope so but not sure yet, I will no more by the middle of next week. Is there any campgrouds around there to stay at, might make a three day weekend out of it.

Primitive type camping? Tent? Camper? Do you need water/electric? Lots of camping around. What kind you want?

Bring them saws! Any running saws will help us, if you dont wanna run them, I will or someone else will. I just feel more saws = better show.
