Hey Mark do ya feel bad that we made Brent get up and go outside to take a pic of a saw in the middle of the night?
I don't
Me either. I didn't see any chainsaw debris or cut logs. Think he got the non-functional display model?

It's the safety model with the non running motor.

Can't wait to see what the third chain saw will be when he somehow "mis-places" the other two.

Heh.
Well, Why you were busy researching additional chain saw purchases, I made myself a Mini Sawbuck.
Didn't want to take my new saw out for a test spin and dig the blade all up in the rocks and stuff! I've actually got a chunk of tree I need to cut up into fire wood sized chunks...

Congrats on the new saw. I started with one of the purple and green Poulans Steve mentioned earlier. It did OK for me for a couple of seasons, and probably would still be cutting, but it needs a thorough tune-up. I needed a bigger saw anyway, so I got a Stihl with 18" and 24" bars, and haven't had the need or urge to get the Wild Thing running again.
Ain't a fresh chain sweet? Did you get a sharpening jig and file when you got the new saw?
...Worked a lot better than the old dull blade on the Ward's chainsaw

I've got the file and jig, so should be set. Probably need to make sure it's the right size...
The old wards was pretty dead when I got it, but I did a complete tear down on it and clean up a few years ago and it actually runs pretty good.
If I really used a chainsaw more, I'd probably pop for a Stihl, but for me it's one of those 'every now and then' type tools...
We'll see, I've been wrong before, but I'm not afraid to upgrade if I need to!

Sure all you need to do is mis-place both of the others..

Sharon, I thought you were going to implement the "two things must go, for every one new thing" rule with Brent. How is that going?

Congratulations on the new saw... you know it's built by Husqvarna?
so is the Craftsman. (That's according to the Sears salesman who sold me my CS)
