I'm a fan of the 048 also. I love the look of that saw. I wish brad would post those pics too. Of course he had one in mint condition. :msp_drool:

Another one I love the look of but not the power is the 032. Too heavy for the power IMO. Still a good saw though. 034s are killer saws.

it's a gtg favorite for sure.

with all the saws you have listed in your sig.,you've pretty much got a gtg going on at your place on a daily basis.......

Hey Brad, those are some fine looking examples of the 08/s-10 saws. You sure have them all spiffied up! Now, where is your 041?

I have a cherry 041 Super, and would you believe, I don't have any pics of it!

Here's a 041FB my FIL bought new. It now belongs to my BIL, and these were taken after I cleaned it up for him.

Here's a 041 Super I restored and sold a couple years ago.

I could have used a GTG crew today I cleaned up the mess from 11 nasty Locust trees I cut down yesterday. All the tops are burnt, all the wood piled up, and the yard raked.

We just got a grapple bucket for the skidsteer Monday. Sucker is a one man wrecking crew. I have moved at least 20-25 dumptruck loads of brush, tree root balls, and tore down barn in the last three days. Man I love that thing.

Well, got off topic. Sorry.

Brad! The 048 plzzz. :msp_cool: :hmm3grin2orange:

This 090G has been all apart for cleaning, but is also all original. It came from the Kentucky Department of Forestry. It's wearing the original bar and 1/2" chain that had never been sharpened when I got it.
