Poor guy. And here we were trying to do him a favor. Instead we've doomed him to a life of CAD. Oh who am I trying to fool? I've never had a hobby I enjoyed so much.
I started thinking along the same line. Like, well, it's cheaper than dirtbikes, until I see you getting into 090-land ! LOL

Anyone that's into Stihl saws would love to have a 090. I've watched them for a couple years now. I don't think you can go wrong buying one in the condition I did for the price I did. Of course Greg did me a favor selling it to me like he did. It will be here tomorrow!

Lol you sold that 07s I thought you would keep it forever lmao. I remember when I could have bought a garage full of old mall saws for what one small pro saw costs now.:cry:

I didn't sell this one!!!!!!!!!! No way!

Well, I don't really know how to explain it.
If someone was in real need, and a plea was posted here, I would have kicked in a few bucks and probably went on to something else.
This is different.
I guess it's more like rooting for the home team ? I dunno.

This has been a blast!! I have so enjoyed the progress of this from a sort of sad story, and everyone Pizzed off at the brother, through the whole process of the build and chaps etc. and then awaiting delivery.

In fact it's been so much fun we should do it again. I Propose that we all chip in and have Brad do the wonders he does on that 090, and then send it to ME. I already have chaps that will save 70 bucks or so. What do ya think??

Not so much huh. LOL. JR

Now, now. My good naturedness will quickly come to an end should you try to take my 090 away from me:) Besides, there's not much I can do to improve this old girl. She's already that nice!

I think maybe BIL had too many beers while reading all 56 pages and went to sleep. I'm there too. G'night all.
