Wait a minute,,,, boys,,,, I totally missed tha boat on this one!!!,,, Will & wendell,,,, R U guys both cross dressers???? or what????

Now that's a scary thought.

Nope, just a saying I learned when I lived in Texas.



Wait a minute, isn't that where you live?

I was one of the Simon sceptics early but he's certainly proved himself by now. He's also got a similar warped sense of humour to me which is more along the English lines that some people may not understand

OK MCW well I wonder how that happened????? Hmmmmm He's English decent,,,, You probably are a bit yourself and at least half of my ancestors are from England,,,

Us yanks were just the first to tell em to go _ _ _k off,,,, then you blokes from down under figured it out,,, then tha canucks did!!!!! hmmmm do we have a common thread here????

Uhhh let me see,,,,, God save the Queen!!!!!

I'll repeat we are extremely pleased with our Simonized MS 460, now that it has had several tanks of fuel ran through it, it seems like it is even stronger than when we shot the "after" video. I've had my cousin who makes his sole living off of logging and has for 31 years run it, and he was amazed, he runs stock 660's and 440's 90% of the time, he was shocked that it would give his 660 a sound whooping. He wanted to keep it after running it, tried his best to trade me out of the saw. I'm stihl waiting on sneaking up on a buddies stock 372 husky. I can wait to see the look on his face, he doesn't run a saw much at all, but thinks he has the baddest saw in the country, which is true in these parts when a "big" saw for most people is a Stihl 390 or 460 Rancher. It has totally changed his view on modded saws. I imagine his next new saw will be sent out before it ever sees fuel in it for a port job.
I've had a chance to run a couple of walkerized saw, they ran good, but at least on our particular saw what set it apart is throttle response, our 460 is every bit as snappy as a 346 as far as immediate throttle response, it is immediate, prolly the best saw I own as far as throttle response.
River Rat is 100% correct if you send Simon or any or builder as far as this goes, give them the courtesy of sending them a immaculately clean saw to work with. Mine was as clean as it prolly ever will be when I sent it. It just cost these guys valuable time when you send a filthy saw. I can't speak for all builders, but Simon's work is meticulous and extremely detailed, it is much easier for them to accomplish the task at hand with a clean saw.
K5Alive, send him a PM, he can do nasty if that's what you want.lol

Hey, now don't judge a book by its cover.

Im pretty sure he will port it for you, his phone # is in his sig,,, give him a shout,,,,

I can tell you this,,,,,,He will require that you really clean it well,,, no crusty oily caked sawed fines allowed,,, I pulled all of my covers on my 365/372 and hit it with purple cleaner twice rinsed it with the water hose and then compressed air,,,, and got it very clean before he would work on it!!!!! For real!!!

Ya, it does kinda suck pulling a saw down to work on it when its caked in crap. But I've done it many many many times, did I say MANY?

Repairing dirty saws is fine in a repair shop environment and is the norm, did that for years day in and day out. My shop is a machining and assembly facility though. You will find no dust, grease, dirt, etc. The lathe makes a bit of a mess but it, as well as the shop, is vacuumed and cleaned everyday.

Heh heh. Yeah I probably should have said English lines generally and not been misunderstood as maybe English bloodlines. I think Simon would watch Monty Python, Dad's Army, or Fawlty Towers and pee his pants, just like me. Some others including my fiancee (although of English bloodlines) just don't seem to get that sense of humour I'm Irish, Scottish, and English completely. In fact a relative back in the late 1800's was even a bushranger (Captain Thunderbolt - Fred Ward) and no I'm not making that up.
I know people with not one bit of english blood in them yet still have an english sense of humour and know full bloods who can't even understand Monty Python - I hope that makes sense

I was dating a girl and we were getting pretty serious so I invited her over to watch "Holy Grail". She didn't laugh once and I almost broke up with her. Fortunately, I stuck with her and she began to see the humor and now we've been married 16 years tomorrow.

Happy Anniversary!

Breaking up with a girl over Monty Python IS English humor!

I love Engrish comedy, even Red Green (in Canada eh) is very English humor.

My wife is English, and had been in the states about four years when we met. She was open to trying trying a wide variety of foods :msp_thumbup: (you need to understand typical British 'cuisine' :taped: to appreciate that trait), and I liked dry British humour, especially Monty Python's absurdist humour. We've been married 24+ years. I'm a native Texan, but my wife now has a Texas accent much heavier than mine.
