C4F Unless you are running in the womens class at Luther and Fife, i dont think you have to worry about competing with me, anyway, when we had the S Ohio GTG you and derek were the two who beat me, so I dont thinkn you'll have to worry bout me catching up to ya yet!:popcorn:

CSC, I am just glad TTR found a good home for that 880.;) Especially now that he has moved on to even faster saws.
I wish I was running in the womens division. :hmm3grin2orange: saying i finished 5th with 5 people running in womens sounds better then saying i finished 25th with 25 people running in mens. :(
Its all in fun CSC with me and my gas saws (lose or lose again i dont care), if I could operate a saw like TTR and WJ,BC etc would be nice though. :)
Tell TTR I have a 24 on ice missing a few now, if you all want to throw axes today.

He's up in a tree at the end of the driveway right this second so i'll have to go and talk to him. :givebeer: Hopefully we can come throw some axes!! I'd Love to kinda get the hang of it before luther, I'm sure I'd go up there and make a COMPLETE fool of myself. TTR said these guys are good:dizzy:


I am 160Lbs and 5'6" . . .what ever that does for the 880. . . ? I know its on eHEAVY S.O.B. Thats for sure. I dont use that saw daily either, Juat ask C4F, its specifically a racein saw ;)
 
put up some really recent ones. . of course I havent looked to see how recent the other ones are but the last pic of me was put up about 20 minutes after we took the picture:greenchainsaw:

LMAO, you say you drove TTR up the :censored: tree today eh! :popcorn:

CSC, Maybe if my 5 foot wife see's you trying to throw axe, maybe she will give it a try too. My son (just turned 11) 5' 3" 129lbs throws a 2.5lbs single axe since last year (even smaller then. But he is better with tomahawks.
 
P.S. , Tell TTR to give me a call if you all head over ok. I am finishing a trans overhaul on a tiller and got a little grease covered today, again (2 days in a row).:(
 
Ok, I toldja after work we would put a picture on here to impress ya! Here it is. Me throwin some chips with the 880 Pipe saw.:rockn:

Good shot. Focused, yet letting the saw do the work. And the cookies are pretty even, with the current one nice and thin like I think should be the goal. There's a lot of guys out there that have been cutting a long time that don't show this control.:)

I'd say you are a natural.

"chainsaw"

Last time I posted videos from chainsaw chicks it created quite a stir. Prime examples of "what not to do."

Well, I tried to watch the Vid, didnt work so well for me. Our computer ia almost an antique, and with dial up (we live in BFE and cant get that high speed stuff without payin an arm and a leg) it takes even longer, but from what I can see, it looks like the last video, the woman is in her bikini top and sawin . . ? :chainsaw:
 
pretty senseless,,,,,and good examples of what NOT to do!!!

All sorts of sticky things can get you when sawing in the field,,, cutting cookies is a bit safer,,, as is more of a controlled environment

PPE is really good but all the PPE in the world wont help if your standing and sawing in the wrong place like the girl standing down hill of that big downed spar,,,,,is lucky that sprung weight did not come back on her,,,,,Im sorry but you just cant fix stupid!!!!! :monkey: :monkey: :monkey:

Depends on the task @ Hand I'd venture to say!!!!!! of course if you are a sawin ya better wear something!!!!!!! (Just funning ladies BTW) :monkey: :monkey:

Now that is an awesome find those saws are about 500.00 US new,,,,, who does your saw work Bermie?????? do you make any of your own repairs?????? :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

I missed a few replies in here, this thread is speeding!

A new 200t here is $1200 so I KNOW I found a treasure!
I do my own saw work, I can work my way through most repairs that I need to do to keep my saws running and performing, I've got four and do tree work every week so I can't afford the time or $$ to send them to the shop. Keep on top of the preventative maintenance and nothing horrible happens!

Public Holiday today, time to enjoy the sun, going fishing, bye!!!

Uh-Oh! NOW I am hooked!

Ok, everyone, I got a new thing started. Along with runnin them fast saws. . .I just learned how do do Axe throwing. OMG I am in L:heart: VE. I threw more than my boyfriend yesterday and our frien 'Cut4Fun' Only thing I didnt realize is how much harder it is than what it looks. I also didnt realize how many muscles you use to throw the dang thing. My entire body is sore. . .we threw for about 3 hours. I already have the boyfriend out making me a trget now!!

I went to a Stihl Timbersports and was being taught to throw the axe by one of the competitors and I ended up breaking the handle on one of the throws. He wasnt that upset but I could see he wasnt happy. It was fun though.
 
I throw hatchets a lot but I've never thrown an axe since all of my axes are work axes. I was thinkin about getting a throwing axe though and I just might now that I hear it's fun :hmm3grin2orange:

I havent done that yet. . .knock on wood!!! I am in love with this axe throwin thing, even if im not that good. . .YET!!!

CSC, I am missing a practice axe for 1st timers to throw and a Tui throwing axe, any ideas where they might have went;)? At least my Keach throwing axe is still safe here from the hours of onslaught throwing you two are probably putting on them poor axes:D.
It was fun and we will have to get TTR to have that GTG soon.
But I dont think we should throw for $10 for best of 3 throws over and over anymore, my son was laughing to the bank today.:(
Sorry, Forgot to offer you the tomhawks to throw, Duh on me, next time though. But you seen how my boy threw the one next to us.
P.S. THE MOUNTAINS ARE STILL BLUE ON MY BOTTLES :laugh:

C4F we got the target up and we threw a lot last night. We didnt tear up them axes at all, the ground here is super soft, no rocks or clay or anything. Me and TTR weren't playin for $10. How we played was we did 3 throws, and who ever lost had to take a shot. I lost twice. I was finished after that. Then we just went back to praticing. we got a pretty good 'technique' down and TTR was throwing consistant 4 and 5 pointers :jawdrop: That worrys me a bit, cause I was the one showing him what I was doing to get better. . . :lifter: Guess I'll need to lift some weights a lil more so i am not so sore!!

P.S. That mountain joke was NOT funny!!!
