Title: chainsaw display
Post by: thecfarm on October 01, 2008, 10:19:21 AM
We went to Fryeburg Fair here in Maine and I finally took  pictures of the saw on display there.I was lucky to get pictures without someone standing in front of them.

There is always a few guys talking about the saws.There was many saws I never heard of there.There was about 50-60 saws here.

isawlog,I think the saws are donated to the Fair.There are few tags saying donated by...  I think when the Fair is not going the chain saws stay right where you see them now.The 2 guys you see in the picture was telling a women to take pictures of certain saws.They was having a great time.

--or Larry S also known as "chainsaw 57 " or Mike Acres collection .

Gee wiz I've got around 40-50 myself but that number is small in comparison to some . . I think Mike has 500 or so and Larry stopped  counting at 1500 .

When Larry goes on an outing he pulls an enclosed trailer full of saws .Fact is he has one of maybe three in the entire world 090 Stihls that has never been started ,never even had fuel in it . ;D

All that said ,nice picture of the saws .
