Greg G (Kegsy JK), Yep, all good. I have added you. Let us know where you will meet us.

I am also adding a Visitor, Leigh Baker. Leigh is a member of the Jeep Club of NSW, and was responsible for getting that club accreditation as an Historic Club, and will be driving a Full Size Jeep.
I hope everyone had a good time and got home safe. I'll attach some pictures here, first it'll be the Renegade "before and after"...
And as a side note: as a club we should pair-up with Husqvarna, it would be a mutually beneficial relationship, lol.

Thanks for a great day Greg and Steve, and awesome to hang and laugh with the crew. Man we had a good time today, clearing trees, building roads, nice driving, putting up with gobstopper, marvelling at Dusan's flex.

After all that cutting I ordered a new blade for my Silky Bigboy (snapped one getting a bit too enthusiastic) and I couldn't help myself and also ordered a Silky 240mm Nata. It was all I could do NOT to order a Silky Katana 650. Google that last one for the best handsaw to replace a chain saw with ;)
Cheers
