If you can send me some information on your truck and trailer in a PM I'd be happy to give it a little attention down my way. We got word some time back that there were some equipment thieves running from OK through Fayetteville and then our county down to Little Rock.

Just got back home let me get caught up here and I'll PM this evening.
 
Fish on!

My oldest on our first fishing trip of the year!

That makes for some great memories all the way around. Great picture!
 
I wandered to a nearby auction. Anybody know what model the Mac is? The loop of 1/2" chipper doesn't look like it's ever been filed.

The Mac appears to be a gear drive. If you look on the bottom of the saw, there will be a "T" shape made by the casting close to the middle. Off one side of the "T" the model number should be stamped. Usually covered with a lot of crud but I've always been able to locate it on those saws.

Very nice haul! That JD is a beauty.

I have been swamped this weekend. I had a side wiring job & have put in 16 hours days yesterday & today. This next weekend I will be back up in Iowa at the Waukee Charity Cut. Then I will be focusing on home projects for most of the summer.

Kenneth, any luck finding you log grabbers?
Yes I guess they got put in my wifes car /
 
We might be able to fix you up, it would a Silver Series though.
I have one similar to this, it is 15 years old, runs great. However, it need a carb; I cannot get it to stop draining the tank when not running. I even put a cheap petcock on the fuel line. So, I store it at an angle, and I don't keep much fuel in it. At some point I'll put a carb on it. I tuned the rpm to 3300 or whatever the lawn boy forum said was optimum. I hope to keep it going for another twenty years. My yard is very tiny, so it won't wear out from overuse. I like it because it is lightweight.

Thanks for the info! This is the bottom. Probably right in front of me, but I can't see a number.

Steve check in the carb box and and see if there is a silver tag with the model number, it will read 6xxxxx and on the Mac chart it will tell you the saw model.

No tag. :-( Either the starter ratio is wimpy or it has some very good compression. Won't hardly pull over without the compression released.

Spent the day doing Mothers Day stuff. Any other day it's called the honey due list. Painting the newly installed privacy fence. Looking forward to travelling to Iowa this Friday.
