Thanks :handshake: I forgot how much fun this can be. Every blip of the throttle is just… satisfaction :D
The basket case 028 I got last month is finally together and runs well. What a difference in having the muffler on it versus yesterday with it...
You Makita/Dolmar boys are in a class of your own. [ATTACH]
After the 2 monsoons this week I've had my fill of wet muck to trudge through. The arctic blast is almost here though :thumbs:
She’s a beaut, Clark [ATTACH]
WOW that's impressive! If I saw that driving down the road in winter, I'd be hard pressed to recognize it right away as sassafras. Sassafras has...

I was checking out the ones that West Coast Saws sells and although they’re nice, I wasn’t too impressed with the machine work. I figured I could...
Thanks Craig :handshake: The worst part was just getting it all modeled out in the CAM software. To get the dimensions I set it up in the...
Did the test fit on my (dirty) extra sausage 029 super just now. Fits like a glove :thumbs: This is going to look sweet on the 028 when I get that...
I should make some larger heavier wheel weights for it too. I think I have some extra steel that’s been sitting around long enough.
