Dang Stump,

You kinda stole my thunder!

I've been looking for a cheap 039/390 to do that to!!!
I think it would surprise a few people.

Sorry Mike, just figured it's time to show some of my work. Let people know what I can do. Aint much but I have fun with it.

I'm still trying to find you a shelled 460 as well, my cousin thinks he has one, he had to go out of town for the weekend to a wedding. I guess I'm just going to have to load up and go over and see what he has for sure. He was positive he had two or three 044/440's and two thrashed 660's and one thrashed 066. I just got to convince him he needs to part with some of his junk.

The work on the 290 looks great. I've got to get that 133 over to you, so we can show that young whipper snapping 7900 who it's daddy is.

i am looking for a 66 you say hes gone but you have keys . just teasing but i do have a 460 that would be extra if i could find a 660

Hey Stump, that pop-up looks mighty good!!! :msp_thumbsup:

 

[blsnelling]

Way to go Stumpy. I like the fact that your stepping outside the box and doing something different. There's no doubt that what you're doing to this saw will make a HUGE difference.

Thanks fer the complement. I like to things out of the norm sometimes. This is the first clamshell Stihl I've been into. They aint too bad, plenty of meat to work with.
