This summer I am hoping to tidy up and make a better place for all the saws. Left to Right- C-91, Super 2 (In Back), SXL-AO, Super 2, HT-17 Hedge Trimmer. Not pictured: ST-145 String Trimmer, XL1-1/2 Pump, SEZ-AO I know its not as impressive as some but I am pretty proud

You should be, that's as they say in jolly old England " a tidy bit of kit", those guys have a real interesting way of putting things.

Love the full wrap on the C-91. Very nice.

Yep, people pay more for those full wrap handles than the saws

That was one of the first things I noticed about the saw when buying it Wish I had a green grip rather than black so it's be more original

If you could find a green grip on another handle, I would think that a hot water soak might soften it enough to take it off and put it on the other handle. It would be a struggle and you would have to keep the grip and tube hot but it just might be possible.

Good looking collection. How well does the hedge trimmer work? I need one for Japanese honeysuckle.

I have two of those trimmers, and no hedge. I have a John Deere one too but I would not mention it on a Homelite forum. Still no hedge.

One of the smoothest quietest machines I've ever ran though Boxwood is easy to identify. The whole plant smells like cat piss.

That grip on the full wrap handle is one of my favorites. Anyone know their origins, who made them? Are they still available?

Just curious...

Just curious... Neither, this is cattle country, cows eat everything above 2 inches of ground level. I have 35 saws now because I wanted them.

Looking good. Love that little blue pump.
One word of caution, not being sure where you are, but around here and especially this time of year, all the rodents are looking for winter nesting. They love getting inside of machinery in outside sheds. My semi-outdoor cat has been lining them up lately.

I'm still damn jealous of that 707....mainly the bar. haha Hard to come by saws with the longer bars and chains still with the power head. Nice finds man....it all starts somewhere. I was at One and next thing I knew I'm at 30.
