Any potential project saws Matt?

I've built and ported several stihls but never been into a husky.

I have that 1959 Homelite Wiz that is gear drive Fred. I'm not sure what is keeping it from running -- maybe we can see if we can get it to fire just for grins.
I'm donating it as a prize for the raffle for Tree Monkey's friend who needs a knee rebuilt and has no insurance.

 

[Mattyo]

I have a whole pile of 372 stuff coming from ebay just in time for the gtg... i'm sure I have enough to give a project a start...bring cash

I'm bringing two if that helps. Not your average saws though.

 

[malk315]

I have one of my brother's work friend's 365 Special that has no compression I may bring. I plan on rebuilding it so I can learn more on a saw that doesn't hold sentiment w/ anyone... it's a beater that will be a great project to learn. Matty if you have parts that could help with that project I'd be happy to make some purchases from you my friend!

@MustangMike the 044 red lever beauty should be in my possession Thursday night!

Matty, will you bring the bird that's always chirping in the background of your vids please....that way I'll know it's you...no name tag needed !!!

Seriously, is someone bringing name tags ? If not a sharpee and a few dozen are in order, and I will supply.

 

[Mattyo]

Polly's wings are not clipped, so she can fly....and she would fly for sure. So unfortunately I cannot bring her. She likely would freak out and have a birdie heart attack if she saw the dogs at Dan's place.

for those that haven't been, the dogs that have been there in the past do come perilously close to the saws at times... so do be careful.

Dan may have some residual name tags.... @paragonbuilder Angelo has offered to bring name tags... does he need to?

 

[Mattyo]

I didn't know you were selling Stihl parts!

A running 372 is $500 or thereabouts, and a cylinder is $150 ... whats funny is in years past I don't think anyone has brought much in the way of cash, even though there may have been sellers.

A better way to put it, is.... there have not been many buyers in years past. So, rather than be brand specific, i'm trying encourage people that are thinking about buying to bring a little extra $$ in case they need parts.

Angelo,

Let's swap name tags all through the day. Will mess some people up.

 

[drf256]

Not sure if I mentioned it or not, but with the help of a good friend, my saw stickers will make its debut at the GTG.

There will probably be at least 10 of my saws there, so whoever wants a sticker for theirs will be getting one.

 

[RI Chevy]

Cool! Can we have a sneak preview?
