    a year,,, haha,, give a few months, who you kidding? :)

    I loved that 362 also, heck I still do :) I'm getting another one, soon!! From what I understand Justin never even cut wood with it, I ran 14 tanks threw it, bucking up this winters firewood that is it.

    Nothing wrong with two of a good thing either, my wife is a identical twin :) I have doubles of the same model saws right now, no logical reason either :) if you have one good thing why not have two, right?

    That was his 261.

    Bring your 460 Rancher out here and I will let you run my ported 261, or any other saw you'd like to run. I normally have a few that are not in my sig (I need to update it now).

    That will give you some trigger time on another saw, and give me time to mod your muffler and retune the saw.

    Offer is open whenever. If you don't have my number still, PM me.

    The weekend of March 7th I have some testing planned? I don't know of the weather then? But that would be a good weekend to stop out. As another member will likely be here. So we can both put our heads together on what would be best for your saw..

    Sorry for the derail. As staff, I know better :D

    THAT statement right there just might land you in the FHC Hall of Fame! I'm going to sit back, drink a cup of coffee and just marvel at that statement for a while! WOW!!

    I would like to start a motion to induct "FarmHand78" into the FHCHOF, anyone second it?

    WHOOOOO-HOOOO.... new saw came today!! I bought this one off lasmacgod on AS... First off, great seller, packaging was awesome! Even threw in a few extra goodies, bar scabbard, extra Oregon VXL chain, and extra fuel and oil cap! Saw was everything he advertised it as.

    He had posted it for sale 3 days before I found it, it was an impulse buy for him at the beginning of the month, but after a three tanks of gas it wasn't living up to his expectations. His advertised price was well below retail, not really sure why no one jumped on this before I did? When I found the add he had actually "closed" it to give the saw a second chance, at the urging of others. I sent him a PM anyway saying to contact me if he decided to sell it. To my surprise he shot a PM back saying if I wanted it he would sell it. Woot-Woot I jumped on the offer! He also had a .325 rim sprocket kit, 16" bar and chain, but I passed on those parts. (maybe should have picked them up as well, was a good deal as well)

    And for what you really all want... a pic.. will get more when I get it with it's siblings at home. My old man is giving me grief about another saw purchase right at the moment, and telling me to get to work.:D

    Three tanks isn't enough that saw needs about 10 tanks through it to show its true colors. Mine has had a couple of gremlins but it has also had more than a couple hundred tanks through it in 9 months.

    FarmHand78 ,
    Upped my count by 2 in two weeks! Feeling a sniffle set in...
    image.jpg
    Had the 445 for 3 years, went vintage with the 266se(thx HoneyFuzz), and kicked it into high gear with the 576xp(thx crzybowhntr)! All orange here, even tho I come from an orange/white background:thumbs:!
    So I believe I have succumbed to the CAD bug, too!

    Before anyone says ANYTHING about that rug,
    That's in front of the dart board in da basement, for when my wife throws darts at the wires on the bristle board! Ok, occasionally.... I.... bounce... one... or 3 off, too:mad:!

    image.jpg
    Triple 20, 19, & 18.... Not bad for an opening throw at Cricket! No, that's not a zero (well, I guess it is) at 12 o'clock, the 2 broke off before we even went on our first date!
