All right, a few people wanted to see photos back when I was asking for all the help with the big Jonsey. Here are some for your viewing pleasure.

The sharp end:

Suburban wood after an afternoon's overkill. Complete with curly fries:

 

[Toneman]

How do you get curly fries? Is is some new way to file your chain?

Nice looking saw John,

Yes, that is one cool saw. It reminds me of a Sherman tank, and just like a tank I am sure it will cut thru anything with little pressure. Have fun!!!

John, what a sweetheart!! i have my girl going...but not perfect yet....working on the bigger carb with full mods...just dont have much time right now for my stuff...hopefully soon...

Some years back Chainsaw Age magazine built a Hot Saw out of one of those,...... great articals, and guess who has all those articals ................ Ken Dunn.

Great looking saw John, but did you have to cut down one of your neighbors ornamentals to get that woodpile? Russ

 

[HUSKYMAN]

Your using a 100cc saw to cut wood that my XL2 could handle. Now youre loggin

Admit it John. After one sweep with that sweet Jonsey you are finished with Homelites. Remember Swedish women are prettier

Hey! That's a 110cc saw. My Poulan XX could handle the wood but that's not nearly as fun. They were taking down some maples down the street (making a bigger yard for someone...grr) so I figured I'd drag a couple home.

Not through with the Homelites, but my SXL-925 will be getting less use now that it's the lesser of two extremes.

 

[Dennis]

Hey...my 111 doesnt have a chainbrake....

 

[Dragoon]

Very nice carvers guys! They look like they could father quite a few stumps. Nice to see some big 'ol boys still getting out to play.

I'm not surprised Dennis, neither does mine. The later ones shipped with this flimsy plastic hangaurd screwed to the top housing. Mine's about #15,700, so it's as late as they got.

Speaking of differences, is that top cover of yours one piece? How the heck to you get at the air filter? I guess they thought that users would have patience and a long screwdriver.
