the only two guns with suppressors.....

The .223 went first followed by the .22 discovery. I think Marty said the .223 was shooting 40 grains but not sure. The .22 disco was shooting 28 grains. Pretty darn quiet.

I couldnt tell it might be me I thought my sweatshirt was more orange then that. Thank you JD and everyone for making it a fun day.

Some of the saw early in the day, seems to be a lot of yellow in one corner.

Another view of the saws, later in the day.

Here is a view of some of the guys in attendance.

Goodies for the door prizes, thanks again to Boyd and to Baileys.

Ryan (Redline) touching up the inside of a chain, next time we get together you can show us how to flip the chain inside out like that....

A few more to follow.

A little out of order here, inside JD's shop early in the day, that's Woodchuck, Jon, Ryan and his buddy in the back, JD, and Thor.

Here is the spot they promised to me if I needed to work on a saw, fortunately they all worked this day and I didn't have to make any emergency repairs. Later in the day Dan (Manyhobbies) was giving some demos on the chain grinder.

Here are some of the guys cutting and splitting some firewood, they loaded the truck in near record time.

In the truck, Boyd is giving instructions on the differences between a Moose and a Squirrel, sorry but I didn't get any pictures of the squirrel demo.

JD said the driveway was drying up nicely earlier in the week, glad I wasn't around to see it when it was muddy. I think that is Bob touching up a chain.

Just got home and got all the important stuff unloaded for now.I got a bad itch to build a 066 with a two piece head hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm like i need more projects to do:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange: Also did anybody get video of me running to 026???

 

[isaaccarlson]

It was great to spend time with some of the great guys on this forum.

I really enjoyed it and plan on attending the next one. Thank you to all who made it possible.

Grizzly Adams with a Husky and a little Mac

Metals working on a 1-43?

And the McCulloch in the cut

Sorry I didn't learn more about Scott, but he had some pretty fast saws build from misc. bits and pieces. He also knew how to run a saw as you can see in some of the videos posted earlier, here he is giving Ryan's modded saw a go.

And here is a photo of Ryan with his sweet 026, interesting sound from that little bitty stinger.

it came loose and got scraped up by the chain. Then his chain came off....finished the cut though.

Last group. Woodchuck and the fastest Wildthing in all of Wisconsin.

Wendell putting the SP125 into the big log, I think he was smiling when he got done.

Another shot of the lovely ladies that patiently kept time when we were running competetions. I think the sound of the McCulloch saws must have scared them so bad they couldn't press the button until way, way after the cut was completed.

My brothers both made it today as well, Ray, Ed, and JD posing for the camera.

And here are the older Heimann boys all together in one place talkinging saws, eating meat, playing in the mud, and all the while breathing two stroke exhaust and fresh air, all in all a great day.

Thanks again to JD, Jon, Boyd, Baileys, and everyone else that helped make this another great success.

That's all folks.

That was the red version,,,,,, I think it is a 2194?

 

[wendell]

Yeah, Mark, I was definitely smiling. I gotta get me one of those. Thanks again for letting me run it.

Tried to rep you for your WGP moose impersonation comment but it says I have to wait. That gave me a big laugh!

Actually that was a J-Red 2095

If that was the saw with the long bar in the shop all day, the clutch cover said 2094.
