« on: September 20, 2014, 10:59:45 pm »
we had a saw contest today at the local fall fair. About 15 competitors and a good crowd of spectators made for a fun day. The logs was 8x8 polar. The video quality is not great but i will post videos of my dolmar 143 and 266

They had this out back  of the parking lot in a old field everything else was inthe parking lot. But the fair never had rides or anything. Just craft stuff forsale and some games for the kids. This fair get smaller each year

New Brunswick Canada. This the second year they had this event last year the logs was strapped to a trailer this year they had a stand built.



They plan on having it every year hopefully it gets bigger and better. With more saws. They added an open class at the last minute so my dolmar could run and the Husky 390xp.  7.9 sec for the husky and 8.2 for the dolmar It was a fun day just wish i would of notice my camera was set to quality videos lol

Just dont ruin it like the one we all used to go to ( about 5 of us ). We ran ported saws and race chains. The locals got tired of it when we all were taking the top spots every year and finally quit putting it on.  Paid top 3, 25 15 5 I think and ribbons through 5.

Paid 5 a saw to run classes.  Hd like a 50cc under, 65cc under,  81cc under, 99cc under, 100cc over.

This was $5 a saw paid out 1st 2nd 3rd in all the classes. Then they had 3 jars with pieces of paper in them you reached in pulled out and read what your prize was. All the money raised went to  the volunteer fire dept which was burnt down by arson a couple months ago. lots of great prizes all donated by local bossinesses.  cases of mix oil, files,gift cards for saw shops, safety chaps with hard hat/ear muffs, shirts, hats. restaurant gift cards many great prizes.  I think almost everyone that entered won a prize. THey also had bow saw comp and everyone used the same saw. I found out how out of shape i was lol and axe throw.
