Very sticky here today. And, found a wet spot in the basement. Judging from the downspouts, the soil against the house (28 years old) has settled another two inches. Yikes!
The postman dropped off the J-Red piston w/ring in the box this morning and the brown truck left the Echo CS3000 carcass on the porch. Will be a busy week to tinker.
Still using Blondie's 'puter so no pictures will be forth coming. I need to update my C'list adds also.

Thanks for looking!
I've been so busy with work here since the 4th I hadn't really thought about it. We had that murder in Bear Creek and that has had me pretty well buried with stuff. This morning was my first breather since all that started. I'm due a couple of days off so maybe I'll start digging through a couple of the local shops to see what they have later this week.
This is where I've been the last few days:

Marc sounds like you have been busy. Hope you find the parts you need.

Hmm, deputy in Alpena. You know Rob Hulsey?
The good news is; my 'puter turns on and I can post from it.
The bad news is; the two USB ports on the front are toast and two of the four in back are suspect.
We had another cloudburst about an hour ago. Not helping my wet spot in the basement.

A mule sighting???
We are getting hammered right now. I went out to try to cover the plywood deck for my shed, and it was too late. Oh well.
I spent some hours digging in the mud around roots and such. The pic does not begin to show how muddy I got. The shorts were a light khaki color to begin with.
Got the 760 back together. I noticed the lugs for a brake handle/hand guard, so it could definitely be converted to a chainsaw. But it's a good concrete saw, if I got a good diamond blade for it. Lot of new parts on it, it was used to cut railroad track, and that is tough on the outside, if not so bad on the inside. New everything but the crankcase.

Morning all, hope everyone survived the storms last night all right. All I had was some rain and thunder boomers that rattled the windows. A guy was blowed off of his motercycle south of St. Joseph, Mo. last night.
I need to go town for a couple of parts, so I can finish off a 066 for a customer. I also have a lawn boy to finish, that was supposed to be done last friday. On my third cup and starting to perk up, later Jim.

I have a feeling here would a great gnashing of teeth & wailing if the supply of coffee were to cut off.

Well, sort of. Rob and I grew up together, he's a cousin somewhere down the line. His house is within .308 range of my house. He's the one who took my boy deer hunting last fall and set him up on the two deer he killed. We stay pretty close. He was at my house a couple of weeks ago shooting skeet and eating burgers at a cookout. He even keeps an eye out for the occasional saw I might want. Rob is about as good as they come, IMHO.

Morning all. Time for coffee and lots of it. 
Morning everybody. I haven't checked in much because I have been busy lately. We have friends (family of 5) staying with us, 4th of July, graduation/birthday parties, etc. I think I need to join the coffee drinking club. Take care and have a good day.
Hope he is OK. THose winds can be tricky. My bike does ok in the wind, but it weighs over 800 lbs., which helps a lot.
Drinking coffee, tellin mama to get my stepdaughter up off the couch. Dang lazy grown kids drive me nuts.
Fellas, here are a couple of pics from the best day of my life. Kenneth was there, as was bcorradi, who never posts anymore. Note the white letters on the top cover. THey are from the first gtg for which this thread was started. Limestone, Arkansas, hosted by Jason, can't recall his AS handle though. R-Value was there, and Stephen, and a bunch of other folks. Some of the nicest, most honest and straightforward people you'd ever want to meet.
So, this is a very fine use for a big creamsicle saw. Drop started on the second pull in front of 100 or so people, as Kenneth the Stihl lover can verify. I made all the cuts with Nancy's hand on the top handle, and came within an inch of the bottom of the cake on the front side that I could see, and within 1/2" on the back side. 30" bar, and I did not damage the table! Canola oil and all that, it was awesome. I'll bring the was to the next gtg, and if you guys want, I'll flush the oil again and we can use it to cut up a hog for a pig roast if we want to do that. yee haw
Have a great day, everybody!
Hope you guys get to meet Nancy and Emerson someday soon. She works every weekend, so it may take a bit of finagling.
