Cant remember if I posted this here before.  :-[

Wayne's Chainsaw Museum - The Ultimate STIHL Collection

Wayne Sutton not only works for STIHL, he's also the curator of a museum that houses one of the largest collections of STIHL chain saws and memorabilia. Wayne has collected chain saws since his college days and his museum contains some of the rarest saws, including the STIHL model BL chain saw which was built in 1950. Wayne offers private tours by appointment.

I was in Wayne's Saw Shop, Amboy, Washington in the summer of 1984. I bought some files and some other goodies from Wayne , which in turn he gave me a ball cap to help "bug" Sam Madsen where  I was to make my next stop.
Also met his mechanic "Wrench" who seemed proud of that handle. He was working on a 250cc hotsaw when I had a chat with him.

Wayne Sutton, Sam and Ralph Madsen sold miles of Stihl saw chain each year already by this time especially after the 1980 Mt. St. Helen's eruption. These 2  shops were the poster boys for NW Stihl in nearby Chehalis.

That's the last time I saw Wayne in 1984, hope to one day make another trip out there to visit his museum.
