Hey eccentric, here is the video you asked for. I think Mark might be a little red faced after seeing the end of this one. That 77 is a heavy beast!

Thanks a BUNCH for posting that up Scott. I've been wanting to see/hear that McCulloch 77 running right and doing some work for over a YEAR now. I was NOT disappointed.

That thing dumps some HUGE chips. Mark's "gracefull dismount" shows just how hard he was leaning on it towards the end. I know exactly how heavy it is. It's even heavier when it's packed up in a big box. The grey haired 5'-4" 100Lbs USPS counter guy just about ruptured himself lifting the box off of the scale. He saw the weight on the scale, and I warned him.............................but he still almost lost it...:yoyo:

 

[Nogoingback]

More.

 

[heimannm]

My turn to post a few

Saws by Bruce

Part of Scott's line up

Including the Mc91 powered hot saw (or is it a 92)

My group on display

The Wright GS5020A, didn't see any shots of this one in action but I can tell you it is loud.

I am not too embarrased by the dismount caught on video, looked to me the same way the guys do it with the V8 saws and the 77 only weighs a little bit less....

One more group tonight then I have to call it quits, it has been long days and short nights since Thursday and it's starting to catch up with me.

Here is Nogoingback delivering a couple of saws for me to bring home, Kris your two wheel cart was inadvertantly left behind and Scott (McC) had it with his stuff in case you go looking for it.

Kingsley on the left, Wendell on the right, and Scott's dad in back getting things ready.

Pete (Scott's son) with a modified Oly 264, he made a few cuts with the saw, probably still smiling.

No matter how hard I try, I always seem to catch Wendell at the wrong angle, thank goodnes for blue jeans and suspenders...

Marty (Kingsley) showing how it's done with the 166, a better chain would help, something to work on for next year.

Somehow I think you are trying to embarrass me.

Mark

Yes, that chain was nasty. Would've hated to see how it would've done if I hadn't spent 20 minutes trying to at least get it serviceable.

New bar and chain will be on order tomorrow.

 

[Nogoingback]

Lots more pictures to go but I'm going to take a break. Any way to attach more than five pictures at a time? This is taking for ever and I have a lot more to go.

I also have around 400+ pictures from the chainsaw demonstration at Baraboo stored in my profile page. I numbered the albums in the order they should be viewed and the pictures in each album were saved in reverse order so start on the last page with the last pic and go backwards. No idea why every thing was saved ass backwards and I hope this makes sense.

 

[wendell]

I think 5 is the max but I think it would be a lot faster to load them to Photobucket and then just copy the IMG codes to your post.

Will this work? [/QUOTE]

Having a bad hair day I guess. Thanks for taking care of the cart, just got in my car and started to get in line to leave and remembered I didn't grab it.

I'll give that a try. Thanks.

 

[Steve NW WI]

Yup, if you just insert the images from Photobucket, you can also get 8 pics per post instead of 5

I'm finding a fair amount of humor in the difference in the mass of the individuals on the helper handle in these pictures. :msp_wink:

I was always told the limiting factor on that end was IQ.:msp_tongue:

 

[heimannm]

I'll add one more set this morning...James brought mostly McCulloch saws this year

More two man saws

Roger had some real eye candy including a 111S (you can see him running it in the competition shots) and a beautiful XF

More of Roger's stuff

More later...

Mark

 

[Kingsley]

Wow!

What a great time up in Baraboo!!!

Thanks to everyone for posting pictures, they look great. Can't wait to see more.

Wendell,

You are twice the helper anyone up there could ask for, no really, you are. Thank you for your help.
Next year for the 5 cu and up you can take the 30 lbs bucking spikes off the 166 so you don't look like a goof like me. That chain needs to go on the scrap pile after your new B/C come. Thanks for letting me run the 166.

Gotta run, thank you for the fun day folks. I'll be anxious to see the new pictures.

Marty

 

[wendell]

Dang, now I'm all misty eyed.
