Hi all, we had a swedish meetup again in the same place as last year and we snapped some pictures for you all and this is a good place to collect them, add more if you have stuff. The meetup is not all gasification but I believe they would be appreciated anyway.

Me and J-O left home for our 400km / 250 mile trip friday morning and since we both live in the moment and are somewhat forgetful we at least snapped these pics on one of the last refills before arrival

And these from the meetup second day, I think they speak for themselves but feel free to ask.

Thank you for coming to meet us, it was a pleasure 😊

By the way, I saw Göran’s truck for the first time in person this weekend and I totally agree with what the inspection guy wrote on his receipt, it is a really cool truck.

Good you started a topic of its own Johan. See if I can upload a few pics tomorrow. I tried tonight, but all of a sudden it seems I’m unable - same phone as before, but the uploads now stall at 62%.

I had that problem too, I resized them to jpeg and then it worked. I guess it is size related and the forum update does not allow it

Wow those are some great pictures, very cool to see the Euro friends meeting up and having fun.

That Husqvarna motorcycle is really something else. I’ve never seen a shifter go THROUGH the fuel tank.

And thank you Joep for the video!

Had a bit more time today so I could upload this one too, see if you can recognize someone familiar 😄  
Unfortunately I wasn’t quick enough with the phone when an old mcCulloch was used

First a beer now.

Hi Johan, i forgot to thank you for the nice video you shoot. Not often i can see myself sawing.  
And also thanks for you left out the failed start attempts 😄  
Now a question: can i link this video to a chainsaw forum if it’s ok with you? 😊

You are welcome, I actually have videos of the failed attempts too if you want them 😉  
Sure, use the video as you see fit. I’m also ok with sending you the video or if you want to download it and upload to your own channel as well. 😊
