    Charles it'd be great if you could attend. It'd be about 86 miles and 103 minutes for you according to Mapquest.


    142 miles/162 minutes for Bob. One way of course....

    Tune the H side so that it burbles (four strokes) at WOT unloaded and just cleans up when under load. When you lift cutting pressure, the saw should revert to four stroking.

    With Calistoga and St Helena so close...........there'd be plenty for family members who aren't into chainsaws to do during the day. Spas, restaurants, wineries, etc...

Having said that I feel that safety starts with the proper mindset and is followed closely, very closely, by the proper skillset. I think there is a tendency to offset poor skills by buying more safety gear."

    Bruce and I have emailed back and forth about it a few times. We also talked about it that one day about a month ago when we did some cutting (a few weeks after you and I went up).
