    I have been trying to work up this oak from Andy and finally had an hour to start on it. I got out the 056 that I fixed the ignition on and the 075 I've been sitting on for a few years. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    Very cool. I bet those legacy saws really bring some 'snot' to the job. You know what I mean, snot = torque, grunt, big cajones, heheh.

    Great! Love seeing old saws still doing the job - wish I could run the 056 and 075 - that would be fun! Good work! Cheers!
