You can see why the big wedge was used.

Uhhh Hmmmmm Lets see,,,, Improper back cut technique,, brought back cut in too low... cut through trigger/hinge before installing wedge,,,, and failed to size up tree and install $4.00 wedge at appropriate time!!!! LOL!!!!!

Just funning Teiva,,,,

Hey RR2! Good to hear from you! Teiva hasn't seen the last couple pages of this thread. They are on dial up. I will show them to him when there here next! he had a GREAT TIME and should be able to make the next one.
Did Dean send you your saw?.......Bob

Okay been thinking about the last week in sept. But if we have a indian summer it will be to dry at my place. I know alot of you hunt. So what weekend in Oct is good for everyone.

i know i am simply another pretty face who attends and applauds all the sawing, the month of October is my birthday and what a great part of the celebration then to attend a GTG!!! Any weekend is fine with me... i'm just a background person; i'll show up anytime...

i think everyone got good rankings in "Plays well with others..." if someone didn't, i just didn't notice... it would be great to have everyone there again, plus anyone who regrets missing it!!!

At this point the only thing going on in Oct is the wife's birthday and that's on the 6th. so LET'S DO IT!!!
By the way :greenchainsaw: Nice looking saw on top of that stump!

Hey Bob, why is that saw so good looking? :hmm3grin2orange: :hmm3grin2orange:

[bookerdog]

Well its looking like the third sat and sun of Oct. Im not for sure yet. Will keep you informed on here and then when Im sure will put a new thread up.

 

[Farley9n]

Hi "Chairdozer"! I'm thinking that beautiful husky was one of my rental fleets just "slightly" over sized 61's! A nice runner just "barely" able to pull that 24" full comp.
By the way, i'm starting to set aside some small piles of beer and have located the twin chair for a late night replay of your camp fire escape act!
Really looking forward to seeing the same great cast of characters plus some new ones!................Bob (one of the fine 4)

Chairdozer??? lol
And I thought the fire had gone out.
I've been thinking about how I'm going to cram all my saws in my lil car. Never get caught with one saw! Did I just offer that advice?

absolutely,,, a very Nice young man,,, Your daughter did well Farley,,,,,

I was just picking on him,,,,, He did a great job on keeping me supplied in cold beer when I was cooking,,, and he did all the set up work on the condiments/trimmings for the burgers/grilled chicken sandwiches,,,,,,, we made a pretty good team!!!!!

 

[Farley9n]

Thanks! Nice words!

Teiva "T" Really had a great time. He was over here the other day and read through the thread from pages 28 to 50 ( over a beer). They have dial up at home and i'm not sure what the situation is at his USFS office so when here they use this computer. Maybe something like Jman he will try to get back at you guys for the nice things said about him.
Neither of us really knew what we were in for at the GTG, never having been to one and not knowing any of the people before hand. Even now both of us are still talking about it and are guilty of swinging conversations with friends back over & over & over our adventure. Hell, I still have sore grin crinkles.....Bob




PS. RR2 .....I have a short video of colin using your 084 where he starts the cut and it rolls the log a bit towards him. We are headed to Ca. for a wedding in the am but will be back next Wed. I will try to post it and some of my other pictures and videos then. If I can figure out how

What saw model is that?

Is the top cover from another model?

Looks like a mid era 61 or 66 from the top cover, but.......

LOL...How did he ever find time to help you? Every time I looked he had a different saw in his hand and was laying wood on the ground. That kid put more hours on the saws than anyone there...and grinned the whole time.

October, folks who come from far far away might be able to see the volcano at a closer viewpoint. The Trout Lake road might (but I've heard rumors of bad things) be open. October will be after the main huckleberry pickings. October will be good. I have vowed to shop for a motorcycle if gas prices keep going up. I think I could figure out how to carry a saw on one and coast over the road to Cougar. We gotta get Trinity to run a bigger saw!:greenchainsaw:

i am glad i am not the only one going back over this thread... in a kind of "walk down memory lane!" things at work have kind of imploded on me, and one of my grand escapes is to stroll through this thread... at least i know i'm not alone

Take mashed potatoes, add a pint of sour cream, a bottle of chives, 3 oz of bacon bits and mix well. I'll contribute a few batches to the next GTG if we can prevail on Mrs Bookerdog for the use of her microwave.

They are like twice baked potatoes without the baked. They must not be to bad, when my out-law gets off the airplane she asks when they are on the menu then inquires about the health of her daughter.

Greg (Dozer) plenty of room in my rig for a few saws.
