i was chuffed to bits and also the parts are going well

there is alot of interest in them from australia usa sweden

[mikerecike]

Any idea where you can get a copy sounds a rivetting read :thumbup:

 

Ordered my second hand copy from Amazon.11 quid in all from Uk.Could have got it cheaper from USA but keen to get into it.

They weren't that cheap though! The contra was £200 when it was introduced, considering a mini was £65, and a decent sized house could be bought for around £1-2k

 

Have you a date for that? i was thinking £192 in around 1976 and whilst house prices were rising fast (probably doubled from 76 to 79 when I bought at 29k)...

 

I never had one and where I worked the big saw was the dolmar CT but I only got to use the partners and poulans till I bought my first Husky chainsaw in 76 as I was climbing then and establishment before that

Which? House prices or contra prices? House prices are from my nan, people whose property I've surveyed, etc. the chainsaw price is from old dealer price lists from AS - Stihl contra info sharing thread.

Must sneak a peak at Dad's 45 year old, and could be nearer 50 year old (me now being 55) Remington saw.

An absolute pig to start when hot from recall.

Still sitting in the back of the feed bench, somewhere.

Decision made, I need an ol Mac! Had 92 saws collected once; now got 3! Should never have parted with the 10-10. Now to finding one! A timber bear would do! Or a PRO-MAC 850 super as per first page - classic.
