we can squeeze that about anywhere...
Yes I will assume that food will be in plentiful supply. I was going to try and find one of those really big flat iron LP grills so we could speed up the eggs, bacon, pancakes... etc. I'll try to find the time to put a corned beef in the oven again.
A few guys usually bring the deep fryers for Friday night dinner and we make deer meat, potatos, onions, etc. Breakfast and Lunch will depend on what people bring and what meat goes in the smoker... I might just put a bunch of chicken in the smoker on thursday and friday so the wife can make pulled chicken (bbq or not).
How about we do this... Start a list of people coming and what you're planning to bring for potluck breakfast/lunch. I'll figure out the meat for lunch.
We have a sponsor for a "Dirty Wood Cutting" competiton!
$50 and a new Oregon LGX chain for the fastest saw through a heavily mud clad log
$50 for best in show
So bring your dirty wood cutting chain and saw!

What size log and type with dirt? Hope no rocks or sand.
Any rules?

The sponsor and I are figuring out rules for the race champ ($50 purse and a new oregon chain). Fastest chain through a dirty log could be race chain that is dull in 1 cut, so that doesn't really work to get the results. I was thinking more along the lines of the fastest chain through clean wood after 3-5 cuts in the dirty wood. More to come on this a little later.
I think the other $50 for "best in show" is a wild card determined by the audience. So get your santa suit out early, or think of something crazy to please the crowd!!!
How about driving a nail into the end of cant. First cut through the nail second cut in clean wood best total time wins. Worst case scenario.
I like it!
use what you want but i already know the solution to this problem.
Shaun will love this idea since he hits nails and bullets with his chains anyhow...
I can see it now. All those Huskys be on the bench broken cause they cut a nail and now need to be worked on. Hope Nate has a big work bench!! LOL
best time or deepest second cut in 30 sec
run chain for 2 seconds against a clay brick then cut?
They huskys will at least do the work and not be sitting in the truck crying like little cream sickles...I can see it now. All those Huskys be on the bench broken cause they cut a nail and now need to be worked on. Hope Nate has a big work bench!! LOL
They aren't crying, they are tearing up from laughing that those Huskys are trying to do work!They huskys will at least do the work and not be sitting in the truck crying like little cream sickles...

Seriously, maybe we can use an aluminum gutter nail, to provide a challenge without being too brutal?

I will try that one.
Someone (the winner) will have to post this in the you suck thread after the weekend is over...
The build begins... The bearings were ok and spun alright but figured I better do it right. OEM crank and new 6203 skf bearings.
