Chain Saws From the Past

[painter david]

Hi, I'm Painter David! I'm looking for unique 2 man chain saws and antique, vintage chain saws to add to my collection. I display chain saws at local events near Richmond, Virginia. If you have accessories for Kiekhaefer (Mercury) chainsaws please let me know. I'm looking for the fuel cans that go in the crate the saws were shipped in, signs, oil cans, extra chains, whatever.

I don't have any old saws but would be very interestedto see your setup at the next show you do. If you could email me the next time you have a display I'd appreciate it.
I went to an auction about 10 years ago or so at a small repair shop and they had a ton of 2 man chainsaws there and other stuff, I was broke at the time though

Antique power shows are a great place to get leads on old saws. I like to demonstrate at them also. The sound of an old saw with virtually no muffler really draws a crowd. People really like to see these old beasts doing work. Some of the people who go to these shows have an old saw or 2 in a shed and want to sell or give it to someone besides a scrap dealer.
