    Hey thanks !! Im liking this 61 as well !! A tad heavy...but doesnt feel too bad . Just nice smooth power . Its growing on be quickly :) As for the year....Im not too sure . Its a made in Slovenia...bare metal tag . Serial#5471357 .
    Ive searched the net trying to figure out these numbers . As close as I can get is that its a 1985...or 1995 . But I could be totally wrong with my guesses too !!!!

    Cottonwood always seems to get a bad rap but there are many places where that is what they have to burn and they get along just fine. It will burn hot and quick and yes, it does make good kindling wood too. Now as for the stink, yes, it is bad.

    I do remember one time I was working for a neighboring farmer and one day he wanted me to paint a couple of hay wagons. Okay. Bright red paint, didn't take long. However, I no sooner finished when the cotton began falling. A true mess!
