30,000

[blsnelling]

It's been 5 years and one month since I joined. I owned one saw, a 039 that I bought new. It was a great saw and I was proud of it. I didn't know any better I have no idea how many saws I've owned and worked on. I remember trying to tune a saw in the beginning. I didn't have a clue. I remember doing my first port job, on a MS260, and just being blown away. I was hooked! It's been a ride, to say the least. There have been good times, and not so good times, lol. All in all, I've made a lot of friends, some that will last a lifetime! And, some of the saws I've collected along the way will probably be with me for a lifetime as well. Merry Christmas everyone, and thanks for the friendships we share.

Here are some of my most prized saws.

It all started with a Google search looking for info trying to fix the oiler on a 041 FB.

30,000 posts is just stupid crazy. That's a lot of wisdom gained and wisdom shared. I think my 028 has a crush on you. Maybe one day I'll send it to you so you can play with it and make its dreams come true...

Cheers!

Hi Brad
It is a good feeling to see that some one is preserving some of the old pearls that I grew up draging through the woods. A very well done collection, realy nice to look back on. Merry Christmas and thanks for sharing.
