    Yup. It's a Deere CS46 (I think I sent you a pic Dex). It's not real pretty but it was a runner. Needs a clutch and a few smaller items. Right now it's in a box in many, many, pieces. This whole business with my truck has me distracted and hasn't left me a lot of play money until I get the new ride outfitted properly. :D

    Easy to understand as it is a sweet truck! Looking forward to watching you put a green one back together again. Any performance mods planned for it?

    We'll see how much I like it. It's for me to play with, as the Stihls generally do the heavy lifting around here. But it's fun to play outside my comfort zone. Also a blast to watch a $50 Earthquake spank $300 025's/MS250's.......

    It's gotten to the point where I trip over saw in the basement that I had forgotten about.

    You definitely have a problem. You don't have enough saws; and, no ported ones.

    For a week or two maybe. My experience with most of the Ching Chang Chong Ding garbage is it falls apart quickly

    Ya...I have aquired the same problem, (thanks to all of you) I've bought 4 Stihl's in the last calendar year and have yet to cut up more than a few cords with any of them.
    I'm currently up to 7 saws (if you include the electric and cordless)

    I'm not sure what "some guys on as running" means, did you forget to type something?

    Some of the guys on Arboristsite.com have been running ported Earthquakes for a year.
