Can we get one of those laser logo modded mufflers that were on here a while back? Who did those anyway? I can't find it now?
 
Just got through reading this whole thread. Great bunch of guys here. Pat sounds like a real stand up kind of man.

Somebody PM where I can shoot some dough, please.

I'll be following this now for sure.


Mr. HE:cool:
 
If chaps do become a decision [and I am letting you folks decide], I am gonna guess Pat's size [cut me some slack, I'm a guy!] and he's maybe 5' 9", normal leg/trunk ratio, and I'm gonna say 160 lb.

My sister left today to drive our mother from Texas to Michigan for family business [mom's]. They won't be back home til Sept. 8.

Pat is flying up there to meet them August 25, home Sept. 2.

This is only to advise he won't be home during those times and his wife won't be home to get photos, etc. til after the 8th Sept. My sister is on notice that photos [plenty of them] will be required payment for this saw. She is all for that.

I had a very brief flash of an idea to fly down there [Denver to Dallas] to take the photos myself. Very brief. I am partners with some guys in an old plane...but this seems to me like an unlikely thing I could do though the idea is still in the back of my mind. My wife leaves in early Sept. to go take care of HER mother 2000 miles away and someone [me] needs to be home to be with our six adopted golden retrievers.

I only post this info' since everyone is so excited and eager. My sister does not need to be home for this, but there might not be anyone to shoot photos. I may get Pat to get a couple of his fire dep't buddies to do it, however, if this all comes together before Sept. 8.

Steve

PS, just called him and "innocently" asked him what bar/chain he's got on the 250, and it's 18" .325. Just for information....

Sounds like he's the same size as me. We could take a vote on the preferred length.

Shipping it to the fire station before he leaves on the 25th might not be a bad idea.
PRESSURE on Brad !!! LOL
 
man, it took me 30 minutes to read this whole thread, and I'm a quick reader! Brad, please PM me so I can donate. If you have enough for all BIL Pat needs, I'll send you some for your hard work. Great stuff guys.

Maybe one of our members could assist in the delivery and photo or video just a thought, the saw will likely be done before the 8th but Brad will fill us in on that.Mckee tree lives in Dallas I would bet he would do it!

Now that's a great idea if it wouldn't put someone out too bad.
Ship the saw to an AS member to hand deliver.....AWESOME IDEA!!
Somebody rep that man for me, I got 'em for something or another last week.
:wave:
 
Plaque

As far as recognition goes, I don't really care what you do, I doubt that anyone who donated did it for recognition, but I will leave the decision to Brad and Cab's, and those who got it going, if they're good enough to get this together they're good enough to decide the plaque. JR
