I organize the antique and vintage saw demonstration at Baraboo Wisconsin. It is held at the Badger Steam and Gas Engine Show. We've been having this demonstration since 1999. There are 5 classes.
Antique 2-man, Antique geardrive, vintage 5cu and under, vintage 5cu and up, vintage hotsaw. We use 1979 as the limit for vintage, so if the saw began production in 1979, but was actually produced in 1981, it still qualifies. The antiques are a little vague. The 2 man saws have been saws such as Mac 7-55, Mall 7, Disston. Geardrives have been everything from Mac 33 to Stihl 090G. There will be 10X10 cottonwood for the vintage classes. The geardrives will cut a round log about 15". The 2-man saws will be cutting something between 20" and 29" This event is held at the Badger Steam and Gas Engine Show near Baraboo WI on Saturday August 21 at 12:00 noon. See the website for maps and info on the Steam show.

Contact me for info on the saw demonstration.
If you bring a saw to run or display, you get in free through the exhibitor gate.
There is a 200+ saw display Friday through Sunday. We can make demonstration cuts whenever we want. There is plenty of wood to cut.
The feature brands at this years show are International Harvestor, Fuller and Johnson, and Custom tractors. This is a large show with 12,000+ visitors through the gate and a big swap meet.
I have many videos of the event on youtube, username macandmall.
