    I would love to visit your place and drink a few beers and have you tell me about all that stuff. Isn't cool all the stuff that some of us have, have had, etc.????? Man it would be nice for all of us to see and experience some of the stuff we have amongst all of us! :thumbs:

    Thanks! I think I can help. I personally have little interest in tractors, so I suggest keeping 50% of the tractor money and investing the other 50% into property & tools!!! That should be a pretty significant savings. You're welcome. :banana:

    NTS, mind if I use your pics to convince the wife that I'm really not that far over the edge yet? :hair::loco: :crazy:

    Absolutely. That picture has helped a few other guys explain to their wives that they aren't so bad after all!

    I had those darn things stashed everywhere in my little garage; rafters, shelves, under benches, etc. I actually took a day off of work to reorganize the shop, and although my wife knew I was obsessed with chainsaws and borderline hoarding them she really didn't grasp the extent. I took that pic and texted it to her when she was at work. She replied, "I wish you hadn't shown me that."

    There are a lot worse/more expensive habits.

    I think I have a nice one on the way. I picked it up on ebay. Labeled a 066 cylinder but 52mm bore. Comes with a piston also that looked good. We'll see in a few days. I do have 2 non decomp 066 cylinders here too.
