    Not drooling..... Yet!
    But, that is a great line up, Shawn Curry! I went from 1 to 3 saws at the end of this winter, so I too am on my way.
    You'll probably buy 2 more within 2 years- that's my bet!

    There is no cure for cad - it is even questionable weather death is, and it can be transmitted from generation to generation something about the gene pool.

    That's the normal way most fallers do. I do the same myself and if my dad is with me he has the 550xp.

    I'm cured.

    I'm selling saws.

    Yeah.......

    Well......I did buy a couple last week too.

    Maybe I'm not cured.

    Maybe I will never be normal again.

    Oh well.......I'm gonna enjoy the ride at least. :D

    I know I've seen them, had dreams about them, got close to pushing the send button... Fought the resistance to them so far... Man...you got some forsale still and sold some beautiful ones... But the great thing about your job, you get to play, fiddle, and fix them daily... :yes:...

    It was really cool for the first couple of years. Then it got too big......too many saws. I tried the use a scheduling system to make the saw traffic manageable, but I do so much trading and swapping that it's still crazy.

    Like any job.......after awhile it gets monotonous.

    My girlfriends mom had a big willow taken down last year. It was offered to me; told them I'd bring over my big chainsaw and cut it up but I didn't want it. Well they finally got a taker, and I repeated my offer, naturally assuming whoever it was didnt have a big chainsaw...

    Well apparently it was a plan hatched by the girlfriends... They set the boyfriends up on a "chainsaw play date" this afternoon. :rofl: :lol:

    I hear he has a "big chainsaw" too. We'll see... I'm gonna bring my MMWS 660 and 32" bar. :saw::saw::D

    You guys know if CAD is contagious? Think I should warn him? :rofl: :lol:

    No.....don't warn him. Let him make a few cuts with the 660........

    That way when you start coming to your senses.......you have someone you can sell a few saws to. lol

    Nope! Do offer him a clue about FHC- that should be all the seed needed to foster an introduction to CAD:whistle:
