More GTG pictures

Brad (blsnelling) showing what happens when you bring an unreliable new saw rather than time proven models.

Some of Dean's (Igpoe) and Steve's (67Mustang) saws. They run as nice as they look.

Modified Mark working on a cant.

Kevin (Jeremiah Johnson) trying his hand at some speed cutting.

Steve (67Mustang) taking his turn, with Andre' (Andyshine77) and Kevin (Jeremiah Johnson) in the background.

Last set of GTG pictures

Here is Nik (FATGUY) looking lost without a saw.

More saws.

A 4000 waiting for reassembly.

A first, Dean (Igpoe) running a one man saw.

Andre' (Andyshine77) doing the work while Brad (bsnelling) works on an unreliable off brand saw.

I will try to load some videos later in the day.

These pics of Brad working on off brand saws could drive up prices on the used Poulan market.

Mike (rms61moparman) won the best hat award.

So that's what an AShat looks like...

That's so goin on the wall of my shop, BTW...

Looks like Mike was enjoying the food at least.

You Poulan guys sure are a lot older than I remember :msp_sneaky: :msp_lol:.

BTW, Brad's user name is blsnelling, not bsnelling (don't ask why & how I learned this ).

Fixed, thanks for the tip.

Poulan 5200 at work

Here is Andre" (Andyshine77) at the controls of a 5200, not sure who the owner of this particular saw is (there were several there).

Poulan 52 2 man saw

Here is another of Dean's (Igpoe) 2 man saws, with Steve (67Mustang) at the controls, Dean manning the helper handle and oiler. Not sure which would make you hurt more, pulling a cross cut saw all day or lugging either end of this beast around.

I can't open this video to see what it is, but will update the text when I post the next one. I upload and then cut grass and check back in when the bagger is full.

[EDIT] I can now see this is Dean (Igpoe) with a sand cast Poulan.

That 655 looks impressive.

Great GTG. Meeting new friends, and reconnecting with old ones.

Mark and I found this in one of our goodie bags. Speak up if you're missing ear protection. (No pun intended.)

Goodie bag (not that I need anything else). I think that was the set left last year that Gregg had been holding on to. Looks like you will be the keeper until next year.

Homelite 995G

I realize this is not a Poulan, but thought you guys might like to see the chips this saw pulls. Brad is at the controls.

In that case, I'll drop them off at Mark's.

Poulan 655

Here is Nik (FATGUY) running a 655. The chain on this saw would dig in and catch as you can see.

First off, I want to thank everyone that came and made the Poulan GTG a great day! And some came a long way. All your kind words are much appreciated. But its the people that make a GTG.
I had a ball, to say the least. There was a little of everything there that would please any saw owner. Lot of history sitting in small area yesterday. I'll post a few pics. I know others will have some also. Have a few vids, may load them later.
This pic doesn't do Steve's sign justice.

Gregg,
