:newbie:
Hello all. My first post on the site and just wanted to let you all know how great a resource this board is. I am sure you all know that but I am thankful non the less. I am a collector. I really like the old vintage stuff and I am always on the look out for them. The bigger and uglier the better . I have not yet convinced my wife I NEED 30+ saws, some of you folks know what I am talking about, but it's alright. I like em none the less and have I place I can store em at work and hide those jewels from her. It really keeps the stress level down round here. Anyway, thanks for reading and thanks for all the help I am sure I'll need in the time to come. Here are a few of my favorites in the brood. I am no where near loyal to 1 brand as you will see.
McCulloch ProMac 55, Mac110, 10-10, 4 Mini Macs from different years (cute lil guys)
Got a couple newer model Poulans and a 5500- This was my Grandpa's and he cut up the muffler and worked the saw over the day he brought it home new. Cuts like a madman.
Homelite 240, 330, 350, 360, XL12, Super XL, C5, and a c7.
And my FAVORITE is my old Strunk Speed Demon Machete. This thing is a real brute and to hear one of these old saws chuckin chips is great.
All of these run great, thanks in part to you folks, and I take them out to chunk up some wood on a regular basis. Got alot of project saws still to get goin though lol. Also take note that I don't own any Stihl or Husky saws. Not because I dont like em but because I cant afford them. Not one of my saws cost over $20. This is a great hobbie for me so far.
I need some more saws.
