    A quote from 2dogs

    "I firmly believe in the philosophy that safety is the number one priority in the woods. 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."

    Man I have like 5 old saws giving to me over the years. Mostly by old timer customers.

    One guy gave me a handsaw that climbers used before they had chainsaw that could be carried around in a tree. With an old pruner. Very cool!

    I like how you set up them pics. Can you hook a fella up, with how you do that?
    I'm a lot better tree trimmer than a computer guy. Thanks Ray

    Power Bee 820

    I have a link to a guy who still sells new Power bee 820xxx motors.
    I had a couple old Rokon Trailbreakers (2 wheel drive motorcycle) that used that motor. If I remember correctly the odd numbers went CCW and the even numbers went CW.
    The site is called EJ's Creations, he has got parts like big tilly carbs, he is geared to the old school go cart guys mostly.
    I have a couple old Fairbanks Morse starters and cups somewheres in the shed, I also might have a couple tillys if you need one.
    I have been looking for a power bee / Chrysler/ westbend 820 saw for years and have never seen one, only heard that they exist. Thanks for the pictures.
    the old power bee likes a 20:1 or 16:1 mix...keep the bugs away and ruins your hearing
