You Got It! Maybe this is the year both 372's get it on!

I will put it on the calendar again, maybe this time I can make it work out.

I was ready to go two years back...



I have a few more/different saws now, and a bigger truck.

Mack truck??

Not quite that big, although it might be required if I wanted to bring all of them.

I can fit 12-15 in the F-150 pretty conveniently though.

Farley9n had a great setup in the back of his Ford,, I dont have any pics,,, but he sure did have a lot in there,,
It looked like a chainsaw roundup!!!

I have a couple of "shelves" that greatly increases the chainsaw carrying capabilities, one comes out with legs to attach to make a workbench.

I do have mostly McCulloch saws, after all.

Mark, you would be a VERY welcome addition! Still a long ways off but hopes are high! Would really like to see that Race Build Mac, I have lost track of it's story......Bob

 

[wood4heat]

Subscribed, maybe this will be the year I make it to another one!

 

[heimannm]

The 1-76 does not get out very often, but it would be a good addition to most any GTG.



Don't worry boys, those are gas cans and not red saws in the background.

[Farley9n]

Hey wood4 ! Be nice to see you again.....It's been some time......Bob

 

[wood4heat]

Thanks Bob! I think it was two years ago I planned on coming but the date lined up with a required Hazmat course.

 

[Eccentric]

Mark I'm hoping you make it out west this year!

T & I went just a bit up river to view some logs for this year. They are at a full time logger (3 generations) and calf ropers place. He also has some of his Grandfather's old Macs.

Sweet! Looks like some serious logs to chew on there. Big old McCullochs are very cool too. I see a 33 or 39 variant wearing a drill head (with bits), what looks to be an 840/890 gear drive, an interesting unidentified direct drive 700 series next to it, an 82cc SP-80/81 on the far right of the bench, and what looks to be a 7-55 or 99 2-man saw.

I'll save some room in the truck and bring some wampum in case any of those old Macs need a new home. On the other hand......maybe he'll want to get his Grandpa's saws running and enjoy them with us at the GTG.

Is it too early to say I'm eyeballing these two??

 

[Farley9n]

Here are a couple more pictures! He has the equipment to load these so we won't be going up into the woods as much as in the past. (lots less fun but still real enjoyable!)......Bob

 

[Eccentric]

Ha! I knew that was an SP-80 or SP-81.
