So, are we good on food or should I throw something together to add to the spread?
Water is a must have! Water pleases the beer gods and keeps the demons of hangovers and silliness away.
I have some square ground ground loops for my 461, both skip link and full comp that I've been meaning to try out. I'll bring them as well.
@farmer steve — do you have an old trash bin or something both narrow and tall that I can put the keg into and fill with ice to keep cold?
Everyone: bring your growlers to take home some of this one-off AS-GTG Norwegian Blonde Ale.

@Multifaceted. I'm sure I have something for the beer. How tall is the keg?

About 24" tall and 9" in diameter.
I just looked around and have an old metal wash tub and also some plastic tubs that should work for that size.

I'd like to try some nice chopping axes.Fellas, the beer is brewed and fermenting. It's a small beer (4.0% ABV) so it'll be done in a few days. It'll be in a 5 gallon keg, which is roughly 2 cases worth of beer.
As for the fun stuff I'm bringing all of my running saws, 462, 271, CS-400 and my old man's little Mac 110
I'm gonna bring some axes too if anyone is a glutton for punishment. Axes for chopping, not splitting
I can't remember, did I offer to bring some food? What's the spread looking like so far?

Then some chopping you shall do! I'll probably bring my 4.5 Arvika, which is still not quite a good chopper, has need extensive modification... but they've got a reputation, so some may want a gander. Aside from that, I'll probably bring the following:
- 3.5 lb Kelly Perfect Jersey, 31" straight shaft handle
- 2.5 lb Kelly Red Warrior Double-Bit Cruiser, 28" handle
- 1.0 kg (2.2 lb) Swedish Hults Bruk 'Wira' pattern, 28" curved handle
- 2.0 kg (4.4 lb) Spanish, Basque Country Bruiser, 25" slip-fit handle
- 1.5 kg (3.25 lb) Finnish Billnäs Collared Axe, 30" curved handle
- 2.5 lb Swedish Wetterlings Hudson Bay Pattern, 26" curved handle
- 1.8 lb Siberian, Russian - Toprsib Bobr Hunters Axe with Hardened Poll, 27" handle
I know this is mostly a Chainsaw meetup, I will be bringing my saws - I swear it!

Sounds delicious
Steve, looks like I'll miss it again. My daughter is treating us to a family weekend. My wife said I could drive up in my truck and spend a couple hours at your place. I have to see how far apart we are. I think the weekend is around Deep Creek Lake. I really wanted to stick the new Poulan with 31" bar and half" chain in some wood. It will be a last minute decision

I just filled my 70 cc slot, a Makita 7301. It’ll go to Carl in the spring, it’s never seen wood.
Don't know why you guys keep buyin those little 70CC saws? I think there should be a 5 CI min!
