Ya, I know. Just kidding around. MS390's are way cooler though.

I love the 390/039.

I've got a sweet one that Jimmy from Nebraska did. I run a 16" bar on it and it's my main "goto saw" when out in the woods - the power to weight is kick ass. Sounds kinda goofy I'll bet but I love that little saw....

I have know Scott and his family for years, and know them to be helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. I am learning there are many on here who have similar traits and abilities. I think it would be great to meet more of you, hear some saws and have a campfire and some adult beverage.

Thats what it's all about, meetimg new people, putting some faces and personalities with names, learning a few things or just shootin the breeze. Yes, Scott can come off rather blunt, you should meet his Dad! :) But one of the first times at a gtg a young kid came in with a piped poulan and a battery charged turbo. we all looked at it and when the kid went out side we kinda snickered at his idea. Scott spoke right up and said, "ya, you guys go ahead and laugh, but if he sticks with it that kid's gonna build a hell of a saw someday and that more than I can say for some of you". Someone said you mean you think it will work? Scott say's, hell no, but at least he's trying and learnin.

Thats awesome. Scott would make an excellent mentor. Anyone would be most lucky to have him as a mentor!:matrix:

scott has taught me everything i know about chainsaws and how to use them, i use the things he taught me everyday now that i work in the industry and i cant tell you how valuable some of the things he taught me are, so yes i would say he is my mentor, im not saying im no expert because i certainly aint but he has helped me ever since i became interested in all of this.

Shoot man, it would be an absolute blast to have a GTG at Scott's. It would certainly be a great time for all that came. I would certainly make the drive up there. Its all about the fun man. Thats all. Can you imagine the wood that we could cut up there? :love1:
 
sorry been out of the loop here a couple days with the holidays and "honey dos" .
No problem building a 390xp for a build off, but I dont own one and I have no use for one so i'm not going to buy one. I have a 2188 now working on it but this guy uses this saw to make a living and he dosnt want to push it to competition standards, But if someone has a 390 they want done to this level I'm IN..
I'm always interested in chain races , Ive competed against some of the very best filer's know did well some times other times not so well. Old saying, "no matter how good we think we are there is always some one better".
scott if you wanta build fast stuff all ya gotta do is build one and send it to a real race you'll find out real quick how ya stand...

There is a guy here in my town that claims he built some of the world record chains. Has anyone ever heard of a race chain builder with the last name George?
 
How long does it take to row across Lake Michigan? With a good tailwind of course.

Race saws, turtles, chain race I don't care. I'd like to be around other saw junkies for a day!
If the other saw junkies are bringing BIG HUSKY'S :msp_w00t: fast or slow, I might just row my a$$ across Lake MI. :msp_blink:
