    I also cut first few cords with a bow saw then graduated to a Mac15. It was easier to cut with the bow saw.Now have a 10 acre wood lot and a serious case of CAD.

    i would like to get my hands on a good 395, that needs a new piston and cylinder, to try that big bore cylinder. Never see them here. Nearest one is in Campbell River. I've gone that far looking for a saw before but too busy now. I also have to take a ferry that costs $20 to go saw shopping and...

    i took the ferry and drove up to Qualicum Beach last year to buy a 288. The saw turned out to be a 281 but in good shape for $125. I like the way it runs with the Tillotson carb.

    Had my day of cutting Thursday. Managed to cut and split a cord of wood from the fir that came down in a wind storm last fall. Nice 25 F day made the mud down by the creek just navigable with the F350 (didn't even have to use 4wd). Made quick work of it with the 372 (that thing is a screamer)...

    2101 still running great. There is a thread somewhere in the Bailey's forum about 2100 cylinders. They could get them made but there is a minimum production run of 1000. They say there is not enough demand. I would buy a few if they were as cheap as other cylinders they offer. I have their big...

    The man who built the saw had those korks in it and saw preserved. I've kept the korks but prefer to run that saw as much as possible. Always come away with a grin.

    A big fir has volunteered for the wood pile after a wind storm so the 394 and 372 will be getting a work out next week.My favorite time to cut wood if we get a cold day.
