    I did the same thing. I started out using 3000 FPS and still have that on other sites but on some other forums like here I registered as Mag Craft. I was doing a lot of welding on chainsaw parts and so
    I thought Mag Craft would be a cool user name. As in Welding magnesium and shaping it back to look like the original part.

    And all this time I thought you liked '60's Homelite saws.

    Yup, Homelite C-5. I bought a C-51 that came up at the estate auction at the farm across the road in 1976. If I remember correctly, it cost $80 and last I knew my brother still had it. At the same auction I also bought a 1946 Studebaker dump truck, that set me back $110. Sold it 6 months later for $175 and thought I had done something.

    I had a c-52 many years ago, at the time it did most all of my big stuff, I didn't mind, my back was a little stronger then and it got the job done.....eventually......:)
