David Brown in Local CL

[Gauge]

Found this very nice looking old DB saw. It's in the local CL thought some of you might want to take a look at it.

Gear driven? No tanks!

Awe shucks Butch I didn't know, it just looked purdy.

I had an 090G once...

 

[sotc]

I still want an 090g

Would you be cutting with it, Willie, or just to collect? I find mine fun to use now and then, and a beautiful saw, but given the weight and slow chain speed, fairly impractical by today's standard. I still like having it.

 

[Gauge]

Is the saw I posted in fact an 090g?

 

[BlackSmith]

Not if it's a David Brown.

 

[sotc]

I'd want one that runs but mostly a collector's piece. Like Gerry's saw

 

[Gauge]

Oh the 090 G stihl saw, man I'm an idiot LOL

 

[Merle Nelson]

Not an issue. We all visit that state.

Stihl is cornfused as well. The 090G is really 070 that's gear driven, both are 106cc while the 090 is 137cc.
