That's awesome, Terry! Thanks for keeping tabs on the funds. It was my pleasure to participate in this endeavour. I can tell you this, making this saw a runner did NOT come easy. You can ask Andre, but the first time out with this saw, it ran like a stock saw! It was a total disappointment. I don't know how many times I went back in it. I learned a LOT during this build. I desparately didn't want to deliver a disappointing saw to something like this. It did end up cutting the fastest time of the day. I left it tuned rich for the run that counted, thinking that would benefit me in that long of a cut, but it did not. I then went back, leaned it out, and really pushed it. This thing really has the torque. I cut two seconds off the cut time, besting the winning cut by a second. That one didn't count as far as the competition went, but it pleased me to know I was delivering a winning saw to everyone that contributed to this worthy cause. Monday I'll be cleaning it up one last final time, and then shipping it to it's new home. Joatman, thanks for entrusting me to build this saw for you. I appreciate the vote of confidence. I was honored to do so.

I Donated the Chaps and the Factory Dual port cover,,, They are 36" pant length Can you wear 36" length chaps???? If you would prefer 34's or 32-30's let me know and I will get them sent to you,,, other wise if they will be fine Terry will send them on like they are just let us know pretty quick,,,,
I'm glad the saw brought in what it did, 3 grand's not bad at all. Sure wasn't a runner first go around, a few changes here and there can make a big difference.:smile2:

I'm sure some others would have benefited from some further tuning tweaks etc with one running particularly rich and another getting snagged by the dawgs.
The winning times are just that.
