I am the Resident Rookie.

*I stand up and walk to the front of the room. Stand behind the microphone.* "Ahem, Hi. My name is Matt. And I have C.A.D. also known as Chainsaw Aquisition Disorder............"

Just wanted to introduce myself. I'm new to this forum but have been into chainsaws and using them for side work/weekend work for about 10 years. I spent 12 years in the Auto Industry *Parts Counter Mostly* before getting my start in IT 4 years ago. As you can see from my sig, I own a few saws. The 361 is going to be sent out to Mastermind come this spring and maybe the 660 if I can get it looking presentable. Hope to enjoy talking with you all in the near future. Later.

Hello Matt. Glad to see you signed up my friend.

Get in there and dig around........lots of good stuff here.

 

[PaladinMan187]

Thanks Randy. I couldn't turn down your offer when you left me that email. I sincerely appreciate the invite. Some days I need all the help I can get.

Fredrick MD huh? I have good friends in Glenelg.

 

[PaladinMan187]

Glenelg isn't far from me at all. I've driven past it a few hundred times. Let me know the next time you're in the area and I'll come down that way to buy you a beer. I have friends in Pasadena that I need to see more often anyway. Kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

@PaladinMan187 ...Welcome aboard young man. The 026Pro in your sig that is 'broken or in pieces'...I'll send you a PM with my shipping address and I'll handle the ship cost...you can just send it my way.

 

[PaladinMan187]

Thank you for the warm welcome USMC615.

About the 026, its going up for sale to fund some other toys. I won't let it go for a steal but I'll be fair. If I remember correctly, it doesn't have a bar or chain, the brake band keeps jumping off and it needs some serious carb work. It just wasn't worth the time and I got mad at it. Meh. Might see if I can get the brake parts and see if I can get it to fire off. Damn you. Now I'm going to be thinking about getting it running this week.

I'd be glad to get together and chew the fat.......but I don't drink alcohol. I know.......that's sorta odd these days huh? lol

SWEET! You're the designated DRIVER!

LMAO......I get that a lot.

 

[PaladinMan187]

So do I. I rarely ever drink but its nice when I do. Either way, I wouldn't mind some of your time. Thanks for the help again and good talking to you.

 

[Mastermind]

I usually end up in Glenelg in July. Most years....on my birthday.
