Gap Filler

[Erick]

Well as some of you know I've had this gap in my line-up for some time now that really needed filling. When the 460 ran out of snort I had to go straight to the big dog and at 30+ lbs the 460 had to really be out of snort.

Now we all know only one saw in the world can fill that spot.

Drum roll please...... (like you don't know whats comming)

[Erick]

Oh yeah I think that worked out nicely.

In honor of the new arrival I thought a family portrait was in order.

As you can see it's in good company.

Sorry guys just having some fun with my new toy.

I'll try to get some action shots for you guys later but right now the only thing I have to cut at home is some 6" Hickory for the smoker.

I was gonna try it out on a 36"+ Oak the neighbor down the road had uprooted in the storm but wouldn't you know it was gone when I went by there today to talk to him about it.

 

[Erick]

Oooops sorry for the big pics the camera must have been in the wrong file size. :blush:

Nahhh, you just need to hit the gym a little more often.

I don't think I'd use a smaller saw even if I had one, however that gap is nothing an MS200 wouldn't fill if I ever decided to.

Congrats. You sir, have a beautiful family.

Thank you Sir, I'm kinda partial to'em.

That's a good one! :hmm3grin2orange:

Nothing like a new saw, especially a big Stihl. The 660 has to be the best looking saw on the market.

 

[mattinky]

You have a beautiful family!

 

[blsnelling]

So how long will it stay stock Erick?

 

[Dadatwins]

Nice looking group, but some dirt ,sawdust, oil, and a few scratches from use on them might be nice also. Those things were made to work, not look pretty. Good luck with the new addition.

Maybe until the warranty runs out ...... should be about three months.

Are you going to be at EricJeepers GTG? Your new saw would set a nice baseline for what a 660 should run like and give me an idea of the gains on my ported BB.

Trust me there's plenty of scratch's and battle scars on'em. I like to keep my equipment clean and well maintained but I do use it like it was meant to be used. I just finished a ground up restoration on the 084 (except the recoil... still waiting on parts) so it looks new, and obviously the 660 is new. I tend to keep newer bars on my saws and thats why they look so pretty in the pics. I fix and sell some saws now and then and when I get a saw without a bar (usually the way I get them) I buy a new one to have something to sell with the saw. I always put the new bar on my personal saws and sell my used bar with the used saw, works great and keeps'em looking pretty.

You know I'll be there.

It may not be fully broken in yet and I'll wait to mod the muffler so we can run a baseline test against a bone stock saw.
