Yup, I'll say.  8) 8) 8)


My experience with ordering stuff around here from places is they never bother. I guess they figure your not serious when you come in looking for a part.  If they ain't got it in the isle, you ain't gettin it. Canadian Tire is the worst, the largest hardware store in Canada and it takes several weeks to get stuff. Kent Home isn't far behind, only they have 15 staff standing around talking and don't offer to help customers.  ::) Stewarts is the best for ordering stuff, I can have it within 3 days.

Kevin so you were the guy with the hat and jacket at the vermier display early Sunday afternoon.  :) You were busy talking so we walked up and down a few the rows came back and you were still talking. ;D So, we went into the ice arena side and of course when we got back you were gone. Couldn't find the trail of  Coke cans stuck in the logs either. But the millers were mostly cutting cedar so they might not of stuck too well.

All in good time Furb.  I drove to much this weekend and my arm is in bad shape. Posting one handed pretty much. A night of rest and I should be ready to go.

Pasbuild and Nailhead have lots of pictures to!  I'm not sure if we should post here or on another thread because our weekend was more about other things then the show, but the show was the excuse to get together.

Bob and Pat (OR CHET), feel free to start something I can jump in on if you want to get there first. ;)

Chet, ya gotta get  Isaw-utah signed up! ;D

We were surprised to discover an old friend at the expo as soon as we walked in. I had told Nailhead I didn't think he would get to see a swinger there and low and behold there was Hammy clear over from New Zealand.

There were a couple things that Pasbuild wanted to take home with us. Here s a photo of the first one that would not fit in my truck. It's just a tiny tiny TigerCat The second one I'm afraid I can't post, but Bob sure wanted to find a way to get it in the back of my truck. DIDNT YA BOB? :D

What about the Canadian Farm Saw ???
Burnt Gunpowder is the Smell Of Freedom

Jeff

I watched it for a bit. It had a very small blade on it, mebbe 36 inch. It seemed to struggle for power even though it had a pretty danG big tractor hooked to it. The lumber looked good. It had claims of 800 foot per hour but I gotta think that is cutting cants out of long timber. You can see here the blade was buried in the cut even on this small log.

Looks like a guy could have some fun woth this but seems like it would take some high dollar logs to make it pay.

They were 29K about five years ago and I think they might be up to 35K.

That tiny Tiger would be nice but I really don't have room in the driveway for it :( but one of them ATV log trailers would fit right nice.
