Posted a short video to my thread about the 262 coming back from Randy (Mastermind Worksaws) thought I'd share here.

I've confirmed the saw has the HDA-87 carb some folks were asking about.
Hopefully I can be back and free that first Saturday in November so I can bring the saw for you guys to make some chips with.

Back to the desk job -- weekend is up.

Mels & Paragon Builder - I hope to roll up and meet you guys. Mels you graciously offer to
buck up that monster pin oak last winter with me, we were all itching to run our saws after
that brutal 3 months of snow...ugh. For the record the guys at the golf course bucked it and front loader
was used to move them as they were huge!

I got a few saws to bring and hopefully the member who ported them. He also is a skilled climber
and could offer plenty of knowledge, been at it 20 years. We became friends via AS!
Gonna keep my fingers crossed it all works out.

Until then...

Boozer

Is this gtg on? I may venture north . let me know

 

[MustangMike]

It is on as far as I know, I'm planning to be there!

 

[Paragon Builder]

Still on! Be great to have you Chris.

 

[skippysphins]

Still on! Be great to have you Chris.

Do I need to bring anything buddy

 

[Paragon Builder]

Yes. Your 262!
Thanks for asking.
If you want to bring some food we are doing potluck. Otherwise just looking to have a fun, educational day and meet some more of the faces on the forum!

 

[skippysphins]

If I do come the 262 will be loaded . any other Saws of mine anybody else want to try let me know OK

 

[Paragon Builder]

Whatcha got?

 

[skippysphins]

Ported 044, 385 , 288 waiting on one from Tenn ,562 ,346,064, off the top of my head

 

[Derf]

Bring the 562xp. I keep hearing how smooth it is, and I gotta try it out. Especially in that 20"-24" wood that I'm using the 372xp for. Would also be good to see how 20+ years of R&D improve on Husky's 60cc 262.

 

[MustangMike]

I'd like to see them all, but the 044, 064 and 562 (in addition to the 262) are of most interest, but bring em all if you can.

 

[skippysphins]

It's sucks when your hoteling and have to carry it all

It's sucks when your hoteling and have to carry it all

Most important to me is everyone have a good time. So no need to burden yourself. I would be just as happy if you showed up empty handed if it's easier. I'm just happy you are considering making the trip!

 

[skippysphins]

I will bring saws

 

[Paragon Builder]

I will bring saws

I know you will. I'm just saying keep it balanced.

 

[skippysphins]

It's cool if I didn't bring any my better half would ask why go to a chain saw thing with no saws

 

[skippysphins]

Lol

That's a good wife you have there Chris!
