Last minute but thought I would throw this out. This saw will be up for purchase and is brand new $850ish 28" bar. So if you have a few minutes to run to the bank (cash is king) unless you have a like very nice 101B to trade, before coming to the GTG to pick it up. If it doesn't sell I am putting it to the wood:hmm3grin2orange: and after that I think it will stay:D

I'll be leaving in just a few minutes for the first leg of the journey!

Wow you have a long drive ahead of you 1130 miles roundtrip:eek2::eek2: Enjoy your not so scenic drive through Illinois. There is a new Bass Pro in Peoria right on I-74 so you may want to stop and check that out.

Dammit, I've been looking forward to this for months, now I'm sick. I woke up this morning with plugged sinus, a cough that hurts like hell...WTF, why this weekend? Out of respect for all of you, I'm going to stay away so I don't become the Iowa GTG Sicko and infect all of you. Vicks and vaporizer here I come. I'm really going to be bummed tomorrow (my saw is even upset)...I'll pray for a break in the sky for you guys. Have fun, be safe.

Spent all of eight hours with Wendell in the shop today. Some seals in the 285cd and near complete tear down of the 5-49 Mac two man( that was a learning experience) to get both running. Well the two man pops on prime any way:) Lots of food and BS....twas a good day.

Proof steve works on his saws.

Would everyone please rep mweba for his tremendous help today. I need to get him one of those pads to stand on for his shop. All day on concrete and my feet and knees are letting me know they are not happy.

Amazing lightning show and a bit of a gully washer at the Traer Hilton at the moment. Hopefully it will pass through tonight.

If anybody has a spare carb diaphragm for a 5-49, I sure would appreciate it!

I finally got the nerve to check the weather and it looks like the rain should be moving out by 8-9AM tomorrow. I'll probably come by about then.
