Hey cobey good to see some more members popping up in SEK! Where you located? I'm just about 15 miles north of Arma, just south of Fort Scott. I've been driving through Pittsburg everyday to get to a carving job I've been working on at Briarbrook Country club in Joplin. We're almost finished with it finally! Here's a couple of pics!

Im really in franklin KS, btw nice work on the statue!!

Ok so back to saw's and stuff. Anyone get any new one's or project saw's ? The only 2 AT saw's I haven't run yet are the 545/550 will anyone be bringing any?

Got a Husky 555 that's just over a week old. Got about 4 tankfuls of fuel through it so far. Sorry, no 545 or 550's in my arsenal.

I have a old 6401 with a new piston and cylinder of the bigbore family. Does that count. and a efco 962 that needed a little love.

I'd run them

In my opinion probably one of the most under rated saws on the market. Sweet saws so smooth and surprisingly strong. One of the best bang for your buck saws Husqvarna has.

Goodbye old friend...

:too_sad:

After countless re-fills and sprocket saving episodes, my longest lived greaser fell to it's demise at 9:47 PM last night...

I can't get over the fact that you're a greaser. I thought only people in the Firewood Forum still did that.

I got 3 Forrester bars..
You grease them, or whine later...
And I used it to mark links when sharpening...

I still do both and I only have one forrester bar. Thats just me. That little hole in the bar is like a grease zirk. its there to be greased once in a while.

Couple more saw's on my wanna try list are but not limited to : Stihl 201, I want one more stab at the 261, 441, Husqvarna 357 to say I have and I have a guilty pleasure for Dolmar/Makita stuff.

I've got a pretty hot 550 that I might let you put your hands on, no molesting though!

Yeah I grease too. Been doing it for over 30 years. Still got the original bar on my original saw. Used it this evening. Even if, as some say, it doesn't help it dang sure don't hurt. Plus old habits are pretty well ingrained by now. If I disturb my preparatory routine ill forget something else; like bar oil or mix or adjust the chain or starting. Just sayin

Yup... And any guy that mills will tell ya most of the bar oil is slung outward off the chain and never makes it to the "oilomatic" sprocket...
Just grease the damn thing....

16 by my count. But I like where you're going with this :biggrin: maybe in good spirit we should start a chainsaw Hanukkah. The first day of Hedgefest , the bearded wizard chainsaw dealer Amish guy gave to me......1 gallon of bar oil and some parts to a 350.

PSH!! I don't know if that saw has even seen soft wood yet?

If you have a saw that you can"t push............... WHY OWN IT!!!!!!!
