Talking It's here!!!!! It's here!!!!! My 788 is here!!!!!

UPS man knocked on my front door at 5:30 pm and delivered my YELLOW SAW, and light kit and stand and free mini clamp set!!!!!

I am SO excited to get this saw, I'm about to explode. LOL

We (hubby, hubby's sis and spouse and I) spent all day shopping and playing (a little casino time at the slots in Laughlin), so the assembly will have to wait until tomorrow. It's all safely stored in the shop, waiting patiently for me to open the boxes.

I promised pics, here they are:

1. on the porch, 2. happy me, 3. bro-in-law with the tractor, 4. safe in the shop

AND, the pattens I ordered from Scroller were in the mailbox when we got home this afternoon! It's a GOOD day today!

ROTFLMAO, ya know, I probably WILL end up going out there and opening the box before the night is over. In fact, now that you have mentioned it....I AM going out there.

Thanks

Congratulations!!!! I know you will absolutely adore it as I do mine!! And I still remember the day that mine came in the mail it was a surprise birthday gift from my grandfather... my dad had known it was coming and so when it did he intercepted it and then on my birthday while I was laying out on the couch watching a movie my dad came in with a huge box that I wasn't paying attention to until he put it down on top of me... well needless to say I was over the moon, squealing to beat the band, and practically jumping up and down...

Now you'll have to be dragged in to cook, do chores, etc. First couple of weeks I had my new saw there wasn't much laundry, cleaning or anything else productive done except, of course, making sawdust by the barrel.

Have fun!
