Talked with the V8 sawgal Natalie and she says to expect a good turnout of Modified saws.

Several V8's and maybe up to 4 and possibly Rotax Rob and the Predator.

She also mentioned,

The Mada rotary 12b hotsaw
Haley V twin hotsaw
Binford V8
The Ford V6 saw
Tims, "it's all good in the wood" Toyota 22R Hotsaw.

You can find some of these saws in action on my and other youtube accounts. mrbigsaw's channel - YouTube

Hope anybody near the Seattle Tacoma Everett area can come out and have some fun with us.

Will be posting up a Vid every day this week to bump this and get the word out.

Last year Some guy showed up that was on a TV show called Axmen that I had never seen before.
Sat and chatted with him for almost and hour and he told me about how
the show was made and that he and James get along great off the screen.

Seemed like a nice fella.

This Guy was 69 years old last year when he did this chop. Gordon Hull.

He did bring a 250 bikesaw but we couldnt keep it running for a cut. Hope he makes it again this time.

Load of logs came in today.

They are laying them out for the event as I type and also confirmed we will have the springboard exabition again too.

Acording to Big Bills Partner Dave there might be as many as 5 V8 saws besides the Toyota, Harley, V6 and Rotary saws.



Y.S.B.T.

you should be there.

This is Dave helping Natalie on the V8.

Had a good turnout today at the show. 2 V8 saws, the Ford V6, Tims Toyota and the Mazda rotary all made runs.



Had some guys come down from Demming and one kid ran up the pole in 18 seconds.
Probaly take me 10 minutes to make it 10 foot. :msp_biggrin:

Got a couple good vids but overloaded my camera chip and lost a few good ones.


One more day left on Sunday if anyone can make it out.


Took some closeups of the Bumble Bee rotary saw. Rated about 150 HP and a real crowd pleaser.
