PAST CT Spring GTG May 6th 2017

I'm still chuckling at your comment at the end of cant racing as we were walking away.
"My saws suck!" Lol
I think many of us gained perspective with some of the very strong saws there.

Indeed !
My 394 did develop a leak, (clutch side seal), my 661 has some ground to make up, and considering how much stronger Scotts hybrid and 661 were, I've got more work to do ! I just have to find some time to mess around with them.

Glad you found it.

So, since I was not there to "see it all", how did the Mike Lee 660 compare to the TM Hybrid and the ported 394s???

I ran the Mike Lee 660 at the NY GTG and was very impressed!

Wasn't mine that they ran at Dan's Mike. I think you ran mine at the NY gtg.

OK ... Yes I did.

When I saw the caption "Redbull runs Mike Lee 066" I just assumed it was your saw!

Kevin I don't remember which 394 you were running here...

Looks like the first one you have with Jason's older port style on it. I can tell cause of the tach on it. That was one knarly log, it got bigger the more cuts we made in it and it's hard to be consistent in large wood I noticed. Any one try Al's 262's ? He ported one differently than other and was interesting to see the difference first hand. Both ran like raped apes lol.

Wow, wish I would have been able to stay for the rest of the event, sounds like I missed a lot!

I did not take any pics while I was there, as it was drizzling most of the morning and I thought others had it covered, but I want to thank Mason & his Dad Darryl for this great little gift, which still has the saw teeth marks in it.

Thanks guys, that was really nice of you!

No problem Mike ! It was cool checking out the blower on your mustang!

Thanks for mentioning this a couple weeks ago Keith. It was a lot of fun! I wish more guys jumped in to try it, lots of guys just watched. It is hard to do. I think only Scott and maybe Julian had done it before.
All of us had more screw ups than good runs... lol

I've only done it once as well, it's fun but not near as easy as it looks. Matt is a master at it

Is that a 562 hes running?

 

[paragonbuilder]

Julian seemed to have a knack for dropping completely through the log and being able to find his cut on the upswing...

Seemed like either we started too high trying to keep a small hinge on top, or the transition would hang us up.

Also I found a 25' cherry log that was fairly consistent to use, but it was very hard, so it made it more difficult.

I wish I had some video of my superb failures...
Lol
Maybe someone else took some.
Here are the three cuts prior to the two in Bill's winning cut video to show how hard it is
