It's meant in fun... not deragotory... :)

Ever get that weird look from some people when they ask you... "So what do you do in your spare time?"

...and you answer, "I collect chainsaws."

"You collect what?"

"Chainsaws..."

"uhh... ...Why?"

"'Cuz they're cool."

"Really? That's kinda weird..."

"Nah... everybody has their geekiness... this just happens to be mine."

:laugh:

I'm sure most of you have had a conversation somewhat like that... :)

lol ... actually I have had a few of those conversations. I just got a call tonight from a guy with three 801s and he asked why I wanted them. He was about the first to say that it was a good thing (my saving these saws from oblivion). :D

I have had that talk with countless amounts of people. Mostly because Im only 19. I love to take them from junk to runners. Then have people offer me good money for somethan I have hardly nothin in.
Guess I am proud to say, I am a saw geek. Keeps me out of trouble, well most of the time.

Whatelse would I do.:confused: I mean heck I get on this computer and have the whole world at my fingertips and all I do is get on here, ebay or craigslist! Heck I don't care about to much of anything for pleasure but saws.
At least when I found this site I new what to call my problem, CAD and I am not alone by any means.:clap:
Believe me Gary, I've seen some confused face's when I've talked to people about saws being my hobby.
:cheers:

hmm v8 chainsaw. I dont have one of those yet. But was thinking about a 360 2 stroke yamaha motor sittin in the shop.

I too find myself on here. ALOT...

Do I need therapy for this? I say no. The wood I cut is givin to people who use wood to heat, and cannot do for them selves any more. Sell a load occasionally. The giving part, justifies it for me. Keeps them warm.

My wife makes fun of me for the saws. Meanwhile, she gets a business card from every tree guy that walks into the jewelry store.....

Geeks or not, I'd really enjoy having a beer or two with most of the folks on here.

Just run up the road about 100 miles. The beer is always cold here. The cheap stuff is on the right and premium is on the left

I've never collected a saw in my life. Every saw I've ever owned served a legitimate, practical purpose, and was soon discarded when no longer needed.
