Oak? if I supply the wood it will probably be pine I barely have enough oak to make cookies out of

I'll supply the oak. I think I might have one we can get an 18" cant out of.

Focus on one or two... Cause I have ADHD, and can't absorb too many saws at once...
I gotta focus on things...
Just sayin...

Thats all I can handle too. one at a time or things start getting interesting.:msp_confused:

Pine would make for the fastest cuts... I can get ya something else, but it would be a poor set of results... Ya know? Who got 2 knots as opposed to 4??? :msp_thumbdn:
 
I figured I'd highlight the changes.

You read it right. Plumbcrazyjr & I will be hosting a Stihl 029-310 buildoff on April 14. We will be integrating this build off with the next MO, AR, OK, KS GTG.

Here is a list of rules. The rules are subject to change if need be.

Saws- Any Stihl 029, 029 super, MS290, MS310, MS390

They will be run in separate classes. Maybe a shootout between the winners of each class.

Must have working chain brake, choke, all factory covers

Can have different carb as long as factory choke & covers still work.

We will be runnin them on 91 non ethenol, mixed with Stihl ultra.

20" bar & 3/8 full chisel chain. We supply the bars.

Chain will be Oregon LGX.

We are plannin on usein oak to do the cuts. Not sure right now if it'll be square or round.

3 cuts per saw, with at least two stopwatches per cut. Then the average of those times will be the official time.

One guy will run all the saws.

I'm gonna try to come up with some prizes fer the top three. Not sure what we're gonna come up with.
Eric & I will have saws in the lineup, but not able to win any prizes.

I hope this will be fun fer all that enter. It should be interesting to see how these saws turn out. :cheers:
 
Ugh... Thanks for reminding me about that one last project, still setting on the bench... Guess I better get to work on it... I like to think of my saw as the "baseline" time...:bang:

Yea I'm still in with a bace line saw as well. :laugh: Where did this 3/8 #### come from my Super has a 325 drum on it? I'll order a new drum for it. :rock:

hold off on the ordering maybe we can just barrow a drum off of some other saw just to run in the race it don't take that long to switch them out.

Edit: The drum off your 036 will fit
