    I had one that was my dad’s that now I wish I’d have kept but got mad and gave up on it and threw it in the iron pile at work some years back. That was before I really got into saws and became infected with a pretty bad case of CAD.

    got a pro Mac 10-10 and a 250 super now

    I did a resto mod on a first year Mini mac. Had a saw guy in PA powder coat it. Another guy in PA made the reproduction decal on the air filter cover from pictures and measurements I sent him. Hasn't been in wood since. Many new old stock parts. Rebuilt later 100 series 32cc 4 port engine vs the original 29cc 2 port.

    From this...

    Did Mike powder coat that for ya? Looks amazing! My first chainsaw was a Mini-Mac 110. I wish I held onto that little saw.

    Hea a great guy, always enjoy hanging out with him! Hell of a cook too!

    I'll be sending him some work soon. I just hate to send my stuff to him because he makes it too darn nice to use!

    He's definitely a good dude. So is John the decal guy from over that way. PA Dan is another one I look forward to BSing with at GTGs.

    Mike gave me a pair of Remington Mighty Mite saws at Kevins last fall because he's knows I'm into them. One was the first saw he ever rebuilt. Then he shelved it and never ran it. Wants to see one Ported so I've been hacking away at one. Luckily I have 8 cylinders to ruin.

    Agreed on them looking to nice after he's done. Thats why I haven't ran that Mini Mac yet.

    Sweet! Send me the results. I’m guessing Lawnboy 1:1 or at 500:1.

    Probably a straight gas test after running a certain mix. You wouldn't believe how long they can run.
