Me too
I'm in! I've been waiting for this to show up so I could get it on my calendar! I had a great time last year and might convince a few more people to come along as well but I'll have them post their own note to get counted.
Thanks a lot for hosting again!

All day cut!!!
No....ESP ones that aren't running!
We could have a vintage saw time cut! The saw that gets done before the GTG is over wins! LOL What did the snail say when he sat on the back of a turtle? Answer on the bottom....scroll down
Bring what ever you want! Vintage, unusal......
We could have a clinics.....on.....say carb cleaning, chain sharpening (round, square)
Did you guys notice that JD put the notice of the GTG in his SIG? I thought that was a good idea so I did it too!

Please have your attorney fax my lawyer the pre-GTG warnings, disclaimers, and hold-harmless agreements in a prudent fashion so as to ascertain the liability involved in attending such an event.
(Otherwise, I will come if I can. Always been educational and entertaining. Thank you for hosting these.)

Is the GTG in Grantsburg? Just trying to figure out where I can stay on Friday night.

One could stay in Turtle Lake, there's the casino and some motel/hotel in town. Roughly less than an hour to the GTG. I don't gamble but about twenty bucks a year, but there's good and cheap food at the casino, lots of people to watch.
I'm half way in the middle from Barron to Turtle Lake on US HWY 8 if someone wanted to kill a little time, run the chain grinder, test cut some logs, etc. the afternoon/evening before the GTG
I've got some chainsaw bars from my saws and friends saws if anyone is interested, all Husky/Johnny mount 3/8 .058 bars, 18" 20" and 24", and some new and used chains to go allong with them. We're just trying to get all of our saws on the same 3/8 .050 chain so we only need to keep one chain on hand.
Looking foreward to the GTG or just getting out to cut again in preperation for the GTG. Just ordered some parts today so maybe I can get some junk running well enough to make a few chips.

We can just handcuff you to the trailer so you don't hurt yourself.

Yes- 6 miles south of Grantsburg or 23 miles north of St. Croix Falls, WI
We can get a "special" trailer for you.

What is a GTG?Is that where yah who's like me from across the river come over and show you how to run a chainsaw?
I just remembered to look at my schedule, seems I will be in Germany on 18 March so I will make every effort to be in Grantsburg, WI on 13 March. Should be some other krauts there to help prep me for the coming week...
Now, just how many big yellow saws can I pack in the back end of my little Ford Ranger, and leave room for the work bench? JD, you will have a torch available again in case I need to make more starter repairs?
Warning to Belgian, better lock up your saws the weekend of 20/21 march or a few more might find their way to Dike.

Mark, you can leave the bench home and bring more saws, I'll bring ya up a bench if JD doesn't have an extra for ya - love watching those old things, and you trying to get them to perform when they don't want to.
I NEED to get down to the neighbors and get that 5-49 two man out and see if it can be made to run. Maybe this weekend I can get down there.
