Just thought I would post pictures of a running Bowbar. More I run'em the more I like'em. Notice the chips do not enter the saw.
 
Amazing! Someone actually CUTTING with a bow bar rather than starting the saw and showing it running!!! I'd like to find one someday.
 
Heres a few sawing videos,

Stihl 028 super, I got for $10.00. I put the bow bar on it.
 
After watching those videos i want one now. I know they were just cutting pine and it's easy to cut. I liked the fact that you don't have to bend over as much. I will be lookin for one for my 036 around here, may even take one for the 250 too. It's hard on the back leaning way down to cut smaller logs.

As you can tell this is really a PM700 with different stickers, I have yet to see another like it.

I can only aspire to reach a small portion of your Greatness...:)


Mr. Bow Saw, the Exalted Potentate of all that is Bow!


P.S.

thanks!

he does have an amazing collection, He just might have more bow saws than anyone. They all look new or close to it too.

I might have a few more then some others do.:biggrinbounce2::blob6:
 
I've been looking for a concise history and explanation of the bow saw- thanks SO much. :yourock:
