    Hi this is PullinMyPoulan and I have CAD.For me It's been bad very bad lately so bad I can't share it all
    But today I had control victory is felling good .I went and looked at a saw for sale drove 2 hours checked it over and said NO.After a long drive to look at what was suppose to be a pristene saw according to pictures and discription only to be disappointed.The long ride home I believe might have cured me for I feel content in what I have not wanting or feeling the need for another saw.I believe we need a thread to help each other with are C.A.D through supporting one another to help control this epidemic.Maybe even a buddy system like addiction programs have.Iam serious if anyone has any thoughts on this or am I just :loco: :crazy:

    The First: is admitting the problem.
    Then when you realize you might have C.A.D. and its a problem come here before so we can hash it out.

    Don't look at me. I just made an impulse buy on a 661 and had the guy send it straight to Cottle Ln. I don't even burn wood...

    It should be home in a couple of weeks with a full port job. :eek:

    I'm sure you know this Pullin but I think you are in the wrong place if you are looking for a CAD rehab support group.
    Just sayin'................ :whistle:

    I bought an 044 on the way home last night, the price was far too good to pass up. Looked at a Mac 10-10 after that for $40, but it had a cracked rear handle so I did not even make an offer. When I got home I surfed the Interwebs and bought an XL-925. First saws I have bought in a couple of months.

    CAD? Sorry can't figure this one out. I know CAD as computer aided design.

    It's a hobby. I don't care if I end up with a hundred saws. It is what I enjoy and it keeps me busy using my hands and keeps my mind occupied. I have other hobbies too where I collect things and do not consider them as a disorder.
    So let the CAD continue.
