My experiences have lead me to believe it's primarily comprised of hippies &/or alt. lifestyle types: don't you agree BDCS.
It's mostly people who want to make money on the spare square footage of their houses. The couple I am staying with owns a duplex and they are empty nesters now that their kids are off to college and such. So they are renting out the other side of their duplex. There is lots of $$ to be made in renting rooms if you have the right set up for it and live in the right areas that have tourist traffic. Honestly its a good way to get a reasonably priced room that doesn't have bed bugs. I was previously registered at a motel in saratoga springs and read it had bed bugs so air B&B is the next best thing. Lots of people do it to subsidize their retirement income and yes lots of them probably have a political leaning to the left, but definitely not all of them! You just have to approach the thought of this like any other legit business; these people have decided to turn their homes into bed and breakfasts and thats what you are paying for.

This is the 1800's Victorian I will be staying in not far from down town.

I was origionally going to camp in a tent for $15 a night near by but camping doesnt open for a couple more weeks...

If you want to throw the hippie logo on something you should look into www.couchsurfing.com. They let you crash on the couch for free!

Do guys really bring tables to unload spare saws?
total noob to this and would like to bring some stuff to foist off on the unsuspecting :)
all kinds of 009-015 goodness, 028 stuffz, blah blah blah

This is a good question Dave. I was sort of wondering the same thing. I've also got some stuff I'm also looking to get rid of. I'm looking for 3 series husky and Stihl project saws.

I think there is always a bit of trading/swapping/selling at these things... we just need a way to tell whats for sale/trade and what's not... I usually take a cheap blue tarp and anything for sale or trade that I have goes on the tarp!

Who is bringing Tanerite to blow up Dave's 009/010/011's??????

That's a good idea. I've got a couple old load blankets I'll bring with me. Anything I want to get rid of or trade away I'll put on the blanket.

I will have some super scrapers (carbide gasket scrapers) with me to sell.

I will also have a chain vise for a Canadian from Mike (homelite410). Come find me!!! I will be the one with the Makita 9010's (possibly in a makita tee-shirt too)!

That's chain vise is for me:). I'll find you, don't worry. You'll have to hook me up with a scraper or two.
Thanks for agreeing to bring the vise. I owe ya one

Is anyone else bringing repair stuff? Ie...more than a scrench?

I have my tool box that I'm bringing with my impacts and whatnot. Just trying to figure out what already is at the site and what isnt.

What time did this break up last year? Or was is going all evening?

I'm bringing a small flat head screw driver;)


@Mattyo Is there anything particular your thinking about?
I can bring a few things if needed, mytivac, case splitter, sparkplug gapping tool etc. I've got lots of room with me so bringing a few tools won't be an issue

Well...just saw the website for cutting edge. I doubt anything I bring wont be redundant! Seems like they might have most everything. So I'll just bring the stuff I need to service my stuff hehe.

Having a mitivac...and a case splitter would be nice. Dunno if we will need them...but saves me from bringing mine!

I'll toss a few tools in the truck with me. I'll make sure to bring my mytivac and case splitter. I'll also bring my brand new comp tester.
I've got to get a new Hosè for my 1.5 yr old Snap On Comp tester. [emoji35][emoji35]

Will be looking forward to trying that out Bob, they have been in development for a long time! I would not be surprised if that is the reason there is a temp halt on 441s, I'll bet they are tweaking them, like they did the 261 and 362.
The 441 is done Mike.
Bout fricken time too

Nathan, as I have stated before, I will take one of those scrapers. I generally have a black cap with a Mustang insignia on it.

And Farmboy Mike I hear you are giving me some stuff to transport also. Does it take much room, I'm debating which vehicle to bring?

I'm thinking 7 saws will fit easily in the Stang!

Great. I have like 5x 5/8" and 3x 1.25" scrapers to bring as spares. Don't be calling dibs b/c I won't remember. First come first serve.

I take payment in cash or Makita parts! [emoji6]

Anyone have a burning desire for some
Poulan 3400's? All parts saws some green and some Craftsman colors.

Just about got everything gathered to load tomorrow :)
IMG_2666.JPG IMG_2667.JPG

I am hoping to bring a lot less home with me :)
I think there are enough nice parts to build a nice 015 and a minty-ish 011AVT with chain brake, looking to unload a couple of near complete metal tank 028s, a nice 032 handle, a slew of bars I will never use, a larger HF ultrasonic, a probably some other stuff. I'm not gonna bring any junk saws, just not enough room, I will scrap all the 009-020 that aren't mostly complete.
I am hoping there is some big burly dude there that can start my Mooberized 084 for me that sumbeotch is just wicked nasty, I cant pull it over.
If you have asked me to bring something specific for you I will have on a bright Safety Orange CCC t-shirt, introduce your self please.
I got a chance to finally use my breaker and spinner to make a pair of 98DL chains for the Cannon bar, and a chain for the 084.

The stuff I have for you isn't very big. Just a few small parts. Carb, couple air filters etc. you can probably fit the stuff in your glove box. Thanks for helping out Mike.

The bar is installed with a cover on it in the picture, its a shorty for fast saw fun, I suppose I can grab a bigger bar and chain too, but I bet I wont run half the stuff I am taking anyway :)
I think I am dropping off 17 of the bars before I even get to Cleveland :)
