Very nice. I have often thought about doing all 5 branches myself, just never seem to get around to doing them. Show us the others when you get a chance.

rdatelle Posted October 31, 2020 Report Share Posted October 31, 2020 Nice job Denny. I'm also an Air Force Vet. Was thinking about doing that but never did. Can't do anything right now anyway. All my tools are on there way to Florida. They should be starting to build our new house next week. Can't wait to get back cutting. Probably not until March. I'll order my new saw around then from you. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
