Hey John, this guy finished second also. like tony (the tiger) says, john, my 357, is greeaat! I am just really pleased. It quit raining down here long enough last Saturday afternoon, i went out and cut down 3 small (24") oaks. just evortless? kind of had to make the saw behave, (like some cherry, I,ve put it in) by not overreving it. this saw will eat as fast as you'll let it. i love it, i don't know what else i can say right now. will post some pics eventually, . you know, i've been thinking, (yikes, run for it boys). With spring coming on, ((cherries and bradford pears are blooming (14 degrees here two weekends ago)) the catfish will start their spring spawn pretty soon. that means, catching some catfish, and that means, of course, cleaning some catfish... with dennis revealing a whole new way to clean big game (buffalo) something i haven't thought of since i killet my first whitetail in '75...if i practice my plunge cutting... and get a carving bar for my 357... and some kind of way to suspend them catfish, we'll, I'll think about that more later. I'm thinking a new forum may be in order, maybe "chaining your game", or maybe, filleting w/a 7 rim sprocket 70dl windsor", just thinking out loud, what do you think john?
