I believe we should call you Dr. Heimann. Your shop is so neat and clean it could double as a medical clinic And, of course your MAC knowledge should equate to a PhD.

"Danm it Jim! I'm a Doctor not a chainsaw mechanic!"
Like most small midwestern towns we have a "festival" of sorts, this weekend is our "Watermelon Days". I wanted to be more a part this year so I outfitted my new wood hauler (2106 F150) with a platform and put a few saws on display for the parade.
I thought I'd be clever and get some magnetic signs made but not clever enough to consider Ford went to all aluminum bodies in 2105...we found a solution to that issue and they will still work on my 2010 for the longer trips.
I also coordinated with my local tree works friend and put a nice large ash stem in the space outside my back door for some additional saw display.
I'll get some better photos some day when I have it fully loaded and the lighting is more favorable.

Mark everything in your place looks so perfect. Where you an engineer? Place looks great!
Back to the future?
Lurked through this entire thread. Simply amazing! I honestly thought that my uncle and I had amassed a lot of yellow saws. but your collection is amazing! I want to see it one day!!
Any of these in the museum? Not sure if this came from a recent estate sale I visited last week but seems likely as it was just posted locally. Maybe the guy selling is on here but seems super pricey.

I picked up a 99 two weeks ago, needs a good going over but it will serve my purposes.

The c's list ad was removed, I'm assuming it sold and if so I guess it wasn't super pricey.
Thank you for considering me. Perhaps one day you can come visit and see just what I have on display.

If I'm ever out that far west I plan to.
If you could take some additional photos I will add them to the archives. I think shipping would be cost prohibitive.

I thought I should update with some photos of the additional shelving, even have a few more saws cleaned up and moved in.

Chris Theirof AKA The Duke came for a visit this week and to put together a video tour of the museum. I didn't take many photos during Chris' visit, and only found one where we both had our eyes open...(mostly).
Chris brought gifts.
I have moved them into the display.
Just prior to Chris's visit I was sorting through clutches and drums, getting them put away in the new building where they belong (just the stuff on top of the benches, not the totes...).

It never ceases to amaze me, all the knickknacks, parts and paraphernalia... I can't even keep track of my parts for about 15 saws. I'd spend hours wandering around trying find things that I KNEW i had, haha.
Due to the large number of items on hand, I am listing most everything in a spread sheet with a location. Unfortunately some the the locations are rather general, like a four tier shelving using with all the PM6 parts, but at least I know where to start the search.
I have also learned along the way that some of the part numbers attached to items are not correct so I have some items with two or three part numbers, and in other cases two or three very different items with the same part number.

The art club from the local school has been painting windows preparing for the big Christmas tree lighting ceremony on the 1st.
