River Rat , did they limit you to 650.00 insurance on your saw at the post office? My wife was told that she could only insure the saw for that amount because it was being shipped to Canada. I think she told me it cost 62.51 to ship the 460.

No saws yet guys. I will let you guys know when they arrive.
 
Nope. mines been shipped. I got it off later than I anticipated but the 460 is on it's way.
The before video was made. I used a 24" seasoned ash that was as hard as wood pecker lips for the log.
I was actually surprised how hard the log is, even with a 460 is took longer to cut through it than I ever thought it would.
I'm gonna wait and post the before and after vids together in one post when it gets back.
Simon has the liberty to do whatever the heck he wants to on the 460, he is welcome to lean toward the performance side at the sacrifice of longevity if he wants to. All I care is the saw will last a couple of years of some serious firewood cutting, then it will be time to buy a new one anyway.

No offense, Simon may be the best sandpaper spinning engine builder in the world. I just thought that doing so in open forum was always frowned upon. I know he can get his own forum subcategory...But There are other engine modders who most likely are more qualified saying less. I guess that the GtG will decide that for the most part.

Really, This whole thread is spam. Isn't it?

Just your posts as far as I can tell.

Not for sponsors.

But There are other engine modders who most likely are more qualified saying less.

And so you thought you'd add "less qualified, saying more" to the mix?

I guess that the GtG will decide that for the most part.

Does this mean you are builder x?

Just curious..but why did you feel the need to go this way?
 
No, not participating in the build off. But will be very interested in seeing how much the winner posts to the site compared to the loser.
 
Well, I'll more than likely be the loser and I don't plan to change a dang thing.......

Don't count yourself out. If you have a strong fast work saw, you may likely out cut the several of the guys who will be "trying" to win.
 
keep in mind that after everyone gets there hands on these saws they will get the chance to vote on there most favorite choice.
 
Vote? Your going to video and clock the saws right? Fastest saw that doesn't grenade in each class would be a winner. What would the votes determine?

there is only one class,and its a work saw class. hence the saw being used all day by the guests at the gtg. it will be timed and will be video'd first thing in the morning and that will determine the 5 cut winner. then the saws will be ran by the guests and they can vote for their favorite. so you will have the actual fastest timed saw winner and the saw that most people would like to own winner. they may be the same saw,they may not be the same saw. i keep telling people dont send a race saw to a work saw event becouse it might not make it through the day. builder beware,you better have confidence in your skills to build an all day long work saw.
