NW Indiana GTG

[Brushwacker]

I am still aiming on being there, was thinking of inviting a friend ( think he meddles on this site once in a while). Looking to bring some powerade and ice tea or similar and packing some saws for sale or trade or to look at. Nothing exceptional ... Need a bit of tlc Couple Mac 250's and 1-51 , An old Wright, probably some Stihl stuff depending on how I feel. I have an fairly well used Husqvarna back pack blower that needs an gas tank, if some one may be interested I'd drag it with. Probably bring some old work saws for whatever. May be some one wants to pick on them or remember old times.
Will probably be late as I spaced it out and need to get things ready after work tomorrow and Sat. AM.
Hows the skeeters gonna be over there!

I hope you have better weather than we have over here on the Iowa/Illinois border. I have to stay on the border this weekend with the 4H show at 8AM, Dog Show at 4Pm, and ball tournament hopefully later. I knew damm well when Mark called and told me the date I would have a conflict. Hell after the morning the Iowa Communists might have me in jail.

 

[Modifiedmark]

Last I heard I don't think they were going to make it. I think Mike is going to pick up your saw on the way up.

Well thats too bad..

I won't be sorry to see that saw again though, I heard its pretty tough now.

John, you know the answer to that already!

Hopefully the Hillbilly skeeter fogger Chris threw together takes care of a bunch of them though...

Guess I should update list. Wasn't sure but finished up the 066 flattop AND got a co-pilot so we should be there for a while anyway. Bringing some stuff to sell/trade mainly some Stihl bars and parts as well as a couple of saws both Stihl and old Mac's-just FYI.

stories are getting good.

 

[Guido Salvage]

Packed up and ready to go, traveling light and saws are only 1 layer deep. Believe it or not, I have more Homelites than Poulans. See everyone mid morning.

 

[Andyshine77]

Mark as you probably know, I'm not going to make the gtg. Brad has your saw, let me know how it runs. Y'all have a great gtg now..

 

[heimannm]

Getting ready this afternoon.

Mark

 

[blsnelling]

16 saws locked, loaded, and ready to roll. I best be getting me to bed. I'm pulling out at 5:15. Should be there by 10:00.

 

[heimannm]

An event like this requires a lot of thought and planning...not sure this is the right crew...

Roger (3000FPS from Wyoming), Chris (CBFarmall one of our hosts), and Tim (Fossil - all the way from Brampton, ON)



Mike (Mopar Mike) and Mark (Modified Mark)



Hey look, I'm there too...



Mark
