Your pics can do this too. Like Jim showed. Just click insert image above left and inset your pic link
this thing  http://chainsawrepair.createaforum.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=4139.0;attach=7843;

Then it does this with thumbnails below all pics.

Not really sure how many I have , the only one I lack is the 2400 two man , we did a show a couple of weeks ago in Mississippi and talked to a pile of people and turned up nothing , and as interesting at it may seem I do not own the first 5200,5400,8500,
all I have is one 4900 bow saw and that's it , not counting 2 roached out 5200 I picked up at the junk yard when the line of orange trim saws came out I am lacking a couple , and on occasion I run across one that has new looking hardware , or a certain way the particular saw was built like he h-200 you see in the pics , it had a large embossed H on the fan wheel shroud plus some of the parts were sand casted together instead of bolted on this H model , I am currently trying to get it

How do you reply to a specific post instead of going all the way to the bottom ?

Here is the other one I have , take notice of the little helper handle on the end , and it is painted red , this saw has the 20" bow also plus compare the coil covers from this one and the pics at the top of the thread and see one has an "on "in a cut out at the bottom of the cover

Here is the one I traded This one has the 15" bow , they also made a strait bar A model too but I haven't found one yet , there are two in private hands , that I have viewed in pictures .
I have seen two A models with a float bowl carb , and you twisted the grip to turn the carb to fell a tree , so what I think they tried a lot of things up grade their first saw !!!

Very nice Dave.  Great pics and a nice collection of saw. 

Although I like the Poulan line of saws I never see any of the real old ones around here and I do not own any.

Once again thanks for sharing.
