Heading north.
Out of Indy.

More importantly, what are you driving, and whose is it?

Good morning! I'd always wanted to display some chainsaws at the Steam-O-Rama show at Halltown.i finally did it this year. The 5 on the front edge of the trailer were made in South West Missouri. Mono(Springfield), Cave Carburetor Exchange ( Springfield), Mitchell (Monett), Barker (Springfield), Blackburn (Joplin).View attachment 469574View attachment 469572View attachment 469573View attachment 469571

What is the purpose of the flat bar on top of the bar of the 2-man saws?

 

[JimBear]

Who, what, when, where & why.

@Hinerman wants to know.

Did you take up a part time job at the Oklahoma Free Press ??? Lol.

@Hinerman

How far is it to Piedmont from you ? 2 hours ?

New guy here, raised in OK, now in MO. Just found this forum, wound up buying another chainsaw after reading here, a Stihl 462.

I don't cut enough to need mods but I would like a lighter bar now for my other saw, a 391. Is it worth the 170 for Stihl or are there other good options? I need another 25 inch one but not having much luck figuring out what is what.

Thanks.

Welcome

Tsumara & Sugi-Hara make excellent lw bars. I haven’t bought one for a couple years so I don’t know what the prices are like.

@MG2186 sells Tsumara bars. You could send him a pm & he will get back to you.

 

[Sawdust Man]

Any of you guys interested in that?
It's going to be a few hours before they get to it.

Found Dufus (I named him/her) on the garage floor all balled up in old spider webs.

Dr. Carl is rehydrating the patient on the front porch.

Taking a long time to reboot his systems but feeding on his own.

It was a chain guard to protect the operator.

 

[Sawdust Man]

Any value?

My brother has gone into full on harvest mode, lost his mind.

No bins ready, no carts hooked, still have lots of mowing needing done. One truck still in the shop, still have 12,000 bu. of beans to screen & haul off.

Cut a truckload of beans yesterday, says there are about 300 acres ready & have 140 acres of corn testing 16%.

Dad is now spinning in circles.

The circus has begun…

Nephew came down for a couple days so we spent the morning on the lake. I need to sharpen my knives, cleaning too many fish lately. @Workshop Are we going to make this happen in a couple of weeks?

Respectable haul.

One of our catches today.
If we can make it run, we stole it.

Unwrap that rope & see if that flat piece slides up-down. Looks like some type of grabber.

Square tile chimney brush

Well now that would make sense, as it was on a shelf right next to a regular round chimney brush.
