    Only 3 days left! Will anyone make a surprise late run? I'm glad it's been a fun thread. It is interesting to see how many different types of wood you come across throughout the year.

    I’d like to thank my sponsors Stihl, Pferd, Phil’s saw shop, King Lawn and Garden and Forsyth Mower Works. Special shout out to Kevin LeVanway for making go fast saws and the FHC community for inspiring me to reach for the stars.

    I’d like to reserve the FHC corporate Hondajet for 2 weeks in February for my all expenses paid trip to the Caymans.

    It’s the only saw I’ve run since the day I got it. Tuned it a bit, running good. But I need to knock the limiter caps off the carb screws, and then I need to do a muffler mod, and then a base gasket delete, and then a timing advance, and then….
