    I really respect you guys that run this place. A better crew would be hard to find. Thanks for being open about links to other saw sites.....that speaks to your character. :)

    I am not here to promote any other site. I'm actually checking in to be sure y'all heard about the raffle.

    As far as OPEforum goes......Bruce is also a great guy. I've been dealing with him for a few years......done work for him, and have had no bad experiences.

    I am the only forum moderator there at this time. I try to keep politics completely off the site. I feel that there are two subjects that can only serve to divide us......politics, and religion. They have no place on a chainsaw/firewood/logging forum in my humble opinion.

    There are a few people that I stopped at the door. I have logged a lot of time on these various forums, and I've seen the same guys start the same fights over and over. Those guys have either been warned that they are under a microscope, or turned away outright.

    Some people might think that since I mod saws for a living that I am not the best choice as moderator. To those people I say this........I am booked up with saw work till May. I don't advertise, and I have no plans to start. I could care less if another "builder" is there to look for work. There are many other guys there that mod saws.......and we all get along very well.

    Anyway.......

    Is it ok if I post a link to the raffle? It is for Mark Hoskie, who lost his shop in a fire.

    I don't think that is the case at all. AS has more members online right now than OPE has in it's entire membership. lol

    I don't deserve any special treatment. I'm just an grumpy old fart that plays with saw in a little shed.

    The internet has a way of creating some big fish........in small ponds.

    I went to the Hoskie farm last Spring and intended to this spring. But that fire has devastated Mark and his family.

    They are truly good poeple.

    Post the link here, or if it's already up? I apologize.

    Because this is a thread for another forum. This isn't the place to vent your name calling.

    If you want to rehash the same story over and over? Go to CRS for that, or AS, or OPE, or SH.

    I've dealt with him, as have numerous poeple on this site and it's been more than a pleasure. Quite a good chap.

    First off I'd like to apologize to the fine folks of this site .
    I didn't want to air dirty Landry here , I would have rather done it where this clown is acting like a little broken hearted school girl!!! But the local staff member for what ever reason elected to void my membership, maybe he doesn't like competition IDK can't recal ever have words with him on open forum.
    First off most people would have done 1 of 2 things if someone "really" did steel some thing of there's eather report it to the LAW or be a man and go knock on this " alleged" theifs door !!!!! Not acts like a girl and run all over the inter webs bohoing about it !!!
    Ok to bore you some more
    I never denied changing said head.
    After doing extensive testing and conversing with many other builders I found a different profiled head on a alky-nitro saw made impressive gains in many ways.
    made motor run a lot cooler , easer to cold start (witch is very important in a race motor), more ignition timing without detonation ect.
    As any GOOD builder will do, I had said saw I'm my shop ironing out a few small bugs, so at this time this guy was a supposed friend so ay MY cost I machined a new head and installed on said saw for FREE not expecting or wanting to be to be paid . ( everyone else that got this update paid !)
    He clames it was slower but it was not saw was ran in "same block" same B/C on the same day, as I recal there wasn't a measurable change in speed but like I had said earlier it benefited a lot in other ways. That's the truth and all I'm going to bore you with on that subject . Shipped saw back on my dime never even got a thank you !
    Real quick on the sign .
    He bought a sign in up state NY from jack walker.
    My self a a few guys had went over to a winter GTG.
    When we got ready to leave Jwalker had this sign with him and asked if I'd take it back with me to save trying to find a way to ship it and of course I said yes no problem ( kevin is unaware that I have it and will be bringing it back )
    So we ALL JOKEINLY desided I'd just hang it on my wall and it would be a surprise when he was at the shop again he'd see it. Well in the mean time he had gotten wind that I had it and wanted to come get it .
    It being in my construction season I was working nights at the time and told him I'd set it out by my wood burner and he could come get it st his leisure . I never ever got so much as a THANK YOU that the kinda guy he is.
    As far as the accusations about RS well that's all hearsay he was no way involved with any of it actually he was labeled by site owner and his brother as being behind the vishious HACK.

    The real funny thing is he thinks by running his CS he's hurting my saw Business lol not that I'm looking for any but I can tell when he's crying the phone doesn't stop ringing.
    sad thing is a guy like this thrives on the hate and discontent witch is why he was given the flick years ago ,all you have to do his look at his history . There is life beyond chainsaws and the Internet sad some don't have it.
    Have a wonderful day!
    You all be the judge !!

    I must say I have had dealings with many of you and honestly respect all of you and your willingness to help others out! Your brains are big and your HEARTS bigger... Heck I am a member on many of your sites even if I dont post much im reading all the good info you guys put up! I pale in comparison to you guys in generosity that I see all over the forums!

    We dont want to see a war break out here so I have to ask that this be taken elsewhere.... We have been good to other sites and even let you guys advertise in sigs, threads, sale adds and so on. FHC is defiantly a friendly place and we really try hard to not pick sides but let everyone in. We want you guys here!!!

    To be perfectly honest I would have dealings in a heartbeat with those I have already and those I havnt just based on reputation! Hell I have seen you guys do some of the kindest things to help others and even experienced it more than once!

    Not mixing words I really do respect all of you guys and understand there is background between all of you but the fighting its just not something we want here...

    Personally I welcome you guys advice friendship and experience thats why I am here to help others with what I know!

    Frankly I have been battling brain tumours ( all ill say on that ) and thats why I am not on much I havnt made that public till now but thats where I went for over a year with almost no posts and it is nice to be able to come back and be able to sit down and chat with everyone here and feel at home without all the BS from a few other places I could name... Thats why people love this site so much its open and friendly!


    Sorry even I rant at times!

    I wont bore you here with this stuff. But I already posted here what really happened, which answers all the above twisted lies by this thief.

    They were all removed yesterday. So I wont keep typing and wasting my time.

    God knows who is telling the truth.

    Have a good day folks.

    I sleep well knowing the truth. ;)
