What a nice day we had for a GTG, like was said, thanks to our great host's and the others who were involved in making another spring Iowa GTG a great one.
It was nice to see old friends again and meet new ones. There is never enough time in the day to meet everyone and it seems there were some in attendance I would have liked to talk to more but never new who they were. To those folks, I'm sorry.
To Marks comments about that miracle Carter carb on the Remington, it is a miracle how it can take a nice saw like that and make run like crap then make it not run at all!!
Good to see old friends and make new ones. We even cut some wood now and then.

AWOL putting Modified Mark's 91 sand cast Poulan 91 in a log, that saw was surprisingly strong and smooth.

One of several highly technical discussions during the day, I think the theme of this one was "...we have the German surrounded, now what...?"

Any idea where my cooler ended up?Next time I'll have to bring 8-10 bags of cheese curds instead of 4. But the creamery in Ellsworth does ship if your interested: http://www.ellsworthcheese.com/

That Remington bow is a beauty. Maybe that Carter carb kept it preserved. Looks like you guys had a great time.

one preserved my s770 so well I sold it to a guy just wantin to look at it.
I believe your probably spot on Tim. It is a excellent condition old saw and pretty rare being a gear drive factory bow version. I put the Tilly back on it yesterday and it runs great. It just bugs me that it's not original that way.

Are you selling the 019t?Philbert spoke up for the Husky 61, and heimannm is interested in the 3400. Did get the 3400 to start but now it needs a new starter rope too. Still have the 019t.

Just sent you a pmYes. It's just sitting around and I haven't done much with it since I got it a few years ago. It has the bad single adjustment carb that is shot, it does run but poorly. Getting rid of it as "parts or fix". Does have a 14" bar/chain and the plastic is in good shape. I'm not looking to get a lot for it so no reasonable offer refused or pay the shipping and it's yours. I'll get some more pictures of it later today.
LOTS of different scenery in Iowa!!!!!!!!!It was my understanding there was nothing but corn fields in Iowa, so did not expect that scenery. Nice GTG setup, looked real nice and a lot of saws.
I must find a way to attend at least one GTG with you fine folks one day.
No, they also have soy, wheat, hay, . . . .It was my understanding there was nothing but corn fields in Iowa . .
