More two man saws in action, first up Steve King, not which one was the winner though

Mark,

I believe the KB (second picture of Steve King) was the winner overall. That was pretty impressive considering the saw was wearing scratcher chain.

Steve's KB was impressive considering it has scratcher chain. He researched all the angles, and did a great job sharpening it as the results show. I was very happy to see how close many of the saws were in each class. It shows that the guys are really getting the most out of these old saws for the times to be so close. Spent the morning over at the show grounds cleaning up our area, then the afternoon draining gas and putting away saws. Made a batch of canned salsa tonight. Back to work tomorrow.

I set up an account on Photobucket and loaded all my pictures from Saturday at Baraboo. Hopefully this link works. Should have photos from 2010 on there soon too. Pictures by NOCUREFORCAD - Photobucket

Minimac:
Mark "heimannm" has a nasty little mini that would outcut Peter's and "Kingsleys", almost 2 cuts to one!

And then we switched ends...

I just went through nogoingback's albums, wow that is a lot of pics to download. You sure do a great job of getting the shots at just the right moment. Lots of cookies falling to the ground. And then nice clos-ups for downcuts, and zoom out to show the roost on the upcuts. Thanks for posting them all for us.

Kris did a nice job with the photos, a lot of interesting shots there that do indeed capture some of the action.

For next year - Acres lists the 300 as 80cc but the McCulloch service manual confirms it is 87cc, in fact the 300 could be turned in to a 650 with the addition of a gear box.

My 650 has both "300" and "650" stamped on the block. The 1965 Workshop Manual Suplement states that the 300 is 5.3ci/87 cc.

I knew I saw 5.3cui somewhere for the 300.

Hi all,

I know this is an old thread, but this gtg looks to be active. I was planning on going to steam engine show in Chilton Aug 12,13 but will probably go to this instead, even though it's quite a bit farther. Anyone else plan on going? Pretty excited to see some vintage saw stuff.

Yes there will be quite a few folks there. It looks like Scott has not been on the sire since March but I am sure he will stop in and start a new thread. The dates will be August 18-20
