New toys

Picked these up from a relative's estate yesterday. The Homelite runs, but needs some tweeking. The Stihl has spark but won't run-hopefuly I can get it running for the gtg.

Truck is going in for some repairs tomorrow, so much for the fun fund.

No gtg for me.

I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully we can hook up around here one of these days.

Anyone traveling through Wisconsin Rapids to GTG?

Is anyone traveling through Wisconsin Rapids on the way to the GTG & returning the same route? I have something that has to get up to the GTG. PM me please.

GTG newbie question

For those of us traveling from a distance, do we all bring our own gas and oil or is there some community gas we can chip in for?

Certainly not a big deal, I've got some fresh 91 octane, no ethanol, 50:1 Amsoil Saber ready to go but just curious how that is handled.

 

[grandpatractor]

I got the OK to post this.

We will giving away a brand new 5100 with heated handles at the GTG.
For a $20 donation, your name will entered in a drawing for a chance to win the saw. Proceeds will be given to Interfaith Caregivers along with the load of wood that we will be cutting. So if you are interested you will want to bring a 20 dollar bill along. Wetgunpowder is supplying the saw!!!
Here is a pic of the saw.

 

[Steve NW WI]

Wendell, I'll have plenty if you need it. I just mixed up a fresh batch tonigh. Truth is, if you bring more than a saw or two, and they're full when you leave, they'll probably not need gas during the day.

GT - headed your way bright and early tomorrow. Lets hope the wet stuff stays away.

Guys usually bring their own gas and oil. But if you are traveling or forget:jawdrop:, I have some 110 octane with sabre.

 

[wendell]

Thanks, Steve. Like I said, not a big deal to me but I'm probably bringing my wife's car and she will probably appreciate it if i don't return it smelling of 2 stroke.

They were just waiting for the other FORD to fall, and it did.

My F250 needed work. Done.

The kids and I were on our way to pay for and pick up the F250, and the F350 clutch made a horrific sound, then the truck coasted into a friendly farmers driveway.

The F250 was delivered today, it works.
The F350 remains F.O.R.D., and will get towed home on saturday.


Why do I get the feeling that the raffle saw had an optional home?


Spare gas? Yeah, stop at your local race fuel source and fill up boys, the fumes at JD's are nothing short of HIGH octane juice.

 

[HEAVY FUEL]

I'll bring a port-a-potty so we don't have to track any dirt into the house.



Now if I can Just remember what I did with that 5 gallon pail...:monkey:

Fords will be fords Mike!

Do not be afraid, if I win the raffle saw, I might just make ya a heck of a deal on a 6 month old unheated 5100...or maybe I need two?

Anyone coming up from Hwy 8 or points south, Wayne's Cafe/truck stop has 110 octane unleaded at the pump. Wayne's is just west of the Jct of Hwy 8 and Hwy 35 North, on the N side of the road across from SuperAmerica. If you're coming from East Dakota, it's maybe 4 miles east of the Hwy 87 turn off.

If you're coming from East Dakota

If you guys keep this up, you know it is going to stick...... You have no idea how long it is going to take me to "re-learn" my address....
