It was New Years eve in two thousand eleven,
When lightning struck in cheese head’s heaven,

Scott rose up and he started a thread,
Yes, the lightning struck AS when he said,

I challenge you Will and Eric Copsey too,
And any other builder who has a clue,

Bring up your best three ninety ex pee,
Do you have the skills it takes to beat me?

Woods port please, and gas from the pump,
Sharpen that chain any way that you want,

As usual, ole Jason was the first poster in,
Boldly proclaiming the best chain will win.

Jacob and Frank were both quick to agree,
Chain helps more than the three ninety ex pee,

Eric was praised for his chain building skill,
These exaltation's made Scott very ill,

Twenty-three viewers on a New Year’s Eve,
Old year spreading chaos before it would leave,

It didn’t take long for the groups to collide,
Woods port or race saw, you must decide,

Sixty five posts were in by the years end,
Everyone digging in, preparing to defend,

The old year certainly birthed the debate,
But in the New Year it would accelerate,

Three or five cube, will the same chain work?
Are they built in a place where witches lurk?

Yes, one hundred posts before the break of dawn,
John Lambert whispers, “Should’ve been sawin’”

I'm not a sponsor here so I hope I'm not speaking out of turn here but isn't TRUE!!! That two chain builds sent you chains for the chain races you competed in? One from Michigan and one from California?

Later Troy!

So....


We down with 12x12's...?? 40" hardwood with bark isn't gonna work - I doubt these builders have the time to build a 48" chain. :laugh:


Consistent 12x12's seems to make the most sense to me. If the wood isn't (around the size of a) 12x12 and if it's not "clean", I don't see much point in having a 390xp racesaw built for an unfair comparison....


If it's actual race saws doing the racing, there needs to be very few variables and the tedious selection of the wood size and quality is a must!! :cheers:

so here is what i'm thinking.
woods mod, must have stock piston, can have popup, stock carb, can be bored, working choke, air filter, muffler can be ported all you want, must have spark screens. all covers must be in place.
no head saws. 28"b/c.
2 races, stock chain, and race chain, choose 1 or both,
round wood and cants, red oak and white pine.
28”d&c for the build off saws in big oak using stock chain.
10x10 white pine for the chain race. 60d-.050 common saw


what else?


i want to keep this fun for all that attend so it's not just a race gtg, everyone is welcome. bring a dish to pass if you can.


looking at march

Tree Monkey, you might be able to work a saw, but you sure as #### cant work a camera. Look for the little flower/tulip button and push it before taking close photos....other wise it just ends up like this thread: a blury pile of crap

You gonna supply fuel mix at what ratio??? and stock chains for a fee that is reasonable to cover your cost??? (*note* all supplied stock chains from the same roll would be nice)

Looks good to me I'm saving my coins,,,, just nail down a date so I can plan to see my cousins while Im there,,, and hang out with JD & Wendell and hoist a few cold barley pops!!!!!!!!
