Check is in the mail to Michigan. Should be there tomorrow. Looking forward to receiving this saw from Joe.
I like the support you guys gave it, but in my case, I fear I was a pushover. You see, I worked on one of these five years ago that was suffering from owner abuse. I read between the lines. It was very good engineering that simply needed an owner's respect.
I pledge to give this saw a good home. Oh, and Joe, the chain brake and sprocket cover can be removed to reduce the size of the box needed to pack the saw since no bar is included. I've found that a nice option. One of the Stihl saws I shipped awhile back to a buyer was crushed in the carton and the chain brake handle was snapped off. It's amazing what carriers do to cartons.
