And......? Got something to tell us?
No NO! not me guys!!!
I run my saws! That there is for the higher class folks! To high end of a saw for me I reckon! If I did get it I would put 40:1, some bar oil it and ruin it! LOL!!!
BUT STAY TUNED! I have pillaged a NICE saw, and combined it with the almighty 090G to bring you the first TEDDY SCOUT HYBRID!!!!
Just wait it is one for the AS hall of fame!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i joined ebay about 12 years ago
tonight was the first time i heard about this "snipe" stuff
i feel like a total moron, to say the least.
Makes a fellow wonder what in the world this might be worth. All original, including the bar and chain that had never been sharpened until a couple weeks ago. No, I couldn't do that. But it sure makes you curious.

I hear ya!!!!! Trust me I hear ya!
But keep in mind, NEW That is a totally different beast, with parties that seem to go a bit deeper in there pockets!!!!
Absolutely. If that saw gets used, it's value will drop by 1/3-1/2 almost immediately. That's what's crazy about it.

I have tears in myeyes! Dude you're king! I guess I will just have to start saving cash and hunting.
I do have a lead on a couple big stihls:
My friend's dad runs a little sawmill, has a 460 and a few other saws. Says his dad has two monster stihls that dont run. Says they're old and very big and wide and heavy! He said his dad would give me one if I could jjust get the other to run, choice is mine on the one I want. He said he would dig them out of the barn for me soon. I will post a thread when I get them. I' m only hoping they're 090 076 etc. Praying they are!!!

The 090G I just bought a few weeks ago from the KY Department of Forestry. It had sat for decades and the chain had never even been sharpened. The 076 Super I build from scratch starting with a set of NOS cases.

So I bet it's hard to get some of the parts. I've never even held an 090 or 076 but I'm amazed by them. I can't imagine a 13hp saw! I know my 660 feels like a beast. I bet it's almost impossible to bog one up.

If you are a young PUNK like me and haven't learned patience! Some of these are a pain to find, and when you do find them, you are fighting for them tooth and nail! LOL! (keep in mind I am not a fighter and my teeth are full of cavities!)
In hind sight, take a good look at what you want and the availability of what is really available! Or plan on find another saw as a parts saw!

LoL, just turned 30 but still young at heart.
I have developed some patience over the years, mostly from hunting, but I do get exited at the thought of getting a new saw, rifle, or bow. Problem is, all of these habits are really expensive, and the money flow is'nt cuttin it. So I guess the best thing you can do is just put money back, keep an eye out, and be ready to throw the money down when the time comes.
Now if I could just learn how to save money!

where did you get that hp figure? i have never seen one for either of those saws, or most old saws for that matter.
I could never buy a saw like that and not run it; it's not my DNA to "save" a saw. Everything must have fuel and must work.
There used to be an 090 on the tree service I worked for back in the mid-1980s: we only broke it out when taking down and bucking huge trunks from multi-leader maples and oaks. It was a real beast; the only saw to go to when these huge logs needed to be cut. Just had a massive amount of torque.
