All of them? I would love to have a pair. I have a brand new pair I was given at a GTG that are too small for me. I'll have to dig those out and give them away.

A limited few people in this thread just don't get it. This is the "Giving" thread, not the "Taking" thread, and they know who they are.
I'm sure some will see this post as sour grapes, but whatever. People are entitled to their own opinions, and mine is that a very few are camping here (+120 posts), and have claimed (+10 items).
Their has been some incredible acts of generosity as well, but unfortunately a few have taken way more than is warranted.
Sorry to post in a negative tone. I have had enough.

i just want everyone to be very clear here. my first post in this thread was regarding skippy and his greed sitting at his computer claiming most stuff in the thread. some might notice that alot of people liked that post except skippy but skippy was the one to send me a PM nearly minutes after. i'm assuming because he knew it was about him and felt guilty. i wanted a 576 cylinder but like everything skippy had already claimed it minutes after it was posted. i decided i wanted nothing to do with this thread and told skippy that but he proceeded to harrass me with PM after PM. i finally just got sick of it and saw he was still taking alot of stuff from the thread. i said "**** it, he's gonna take so i'm gonna take from him then call him out on it" so here i am. another thing is when i finally decided to take that cylinder i told him it was for a saw that i don't even own yet. it was in the negotiation stages. after that he went and tried to play it off as he only got one cylinder and it wasn't the one i needed. i knew he was full of it and just wanted to keep it so made up a white lie saying young told me he sent him the cylinder i need. he then snapped a pic of 2 cylinders saying they were exactly the same hiding the angle that identifies the 576 cylinder. so now it seems he sent it. i guess i'll see soon here. i continue to see him claim claim claim claim and it drives me nutz. nobody has a chance to claim anything and skippy probably doesn't even need 1/4 of the **** he claims. then mikes chain vice pops up and he wants to stay up all night to claim that too. like WTF. this is the christmas thread not the greedy skippy thread. my first post was directly related to skippy but there has since been a few other join as well but they are no where near as bad and usually fade away after a few pages. call me the grinch but i'm calling it like a see it. skippy came here to make it public that he got me to accept the cylinder to make himself look good so i'm making his BS public. i would cut him off now and not let him claim another thing. oh and skippy, after my first post i didn't just get a PM from you. i got a PM from alot of people and all of them were mentioning you and your greed. there has since been a behind the scenes discussion about you. anyways. i'm just here saying this in hopes skippy gets what he deserves (which is nothing) and to say merry christmas to all including skippy

Nope, no worries. You are very generous, and your giving is appreciated.

And I still have the nos tillitson carb for the remington available.still looking for the other nos tilleys.
Some guys on this site have been extraordinarily generous. Some guys (like builders?) end up with lots of spare parts to share. Personally, I never really saw this as a faith-based giving thread in the the spirit of the holiday season; I saw it as a atheist, socialist plot to redistribute the wealth of saw parts. I hear that a lot of them are now heading to Cuba to finally rebuild those 1957 era chainsaws.
Bottom line is that anyone offering an item does not have to give it to the first person that 'claims' it in a post. Ask for PM's, and use your own criteria; has not received something yet; has more than 'X' posts; has also offered something; scratched your back at a GTG a few years back; whatever. Does not have to be the same for everybody or every item.
It's fun to get stuff. The knowledge I have received from this site far exceeds the value of the items I have received.
BTW - Happy Winter Solstice to all you Pagans out there! I can say for certain that your days will be brighter from now on (or at least for the next 6 months).

Still have these available to anyone that can use them
It's time to give these to someone that can use them. These are brand new, never worn. Is mentioned above, I was given them at a GTG, hoping they would fit. They are size 34x32. Shipping is on me this time, anywhere in the lower 48. Merry Christmas guys! I'll drop these in the mail tomorrow, USPS Priority Mail. With any luck, you'll have them before Christmas.
Everyone is scared to claim them now, lol Either that, or you're all too FAT!!!
