Gave my niece and her husband this 028
A few year's ago.
It's his only saw apart from a damn 031

somebody probably my great nephew
Stole the sparkplug out of it.
Swapped it with a broken champion.
It had a bosch in it.

he tightened the cover but left the plug and boot loose.
Couldn't tell what he did at first.

he also stole the bar nuts
I put huskys on it.

no two teeth were same length
I got it running good after cleaning it
Ordering some chains for it now.

First time installing the hose on a handlebar. Could’ve done it without talking to @Glock37 while we were at Randy’s. Once you get the right pressure in the hose and keep feeding it, it goes on pretty easy. We won’t talk about the first 30 minutes I wrestled with it. Lol

What exactly is a purpose of a 'bow' on a saw? I've never seen one in person, only on here..

Last bow saw I had in the shop was a 2100. You wanna talk about Overkill. LOL He had me swap the bow over to his 272.

It was advertised as a "pinchless" bar. They were more common here in the south with the pulp wood harvesters. When a fallen tree(s) is under pressure the bar will go through the log and not get stuck in the cut. However, they are incredibly dangerous. I believe OSHA banned them. Way too many kickback injuries. From a production standpoint a skilled bow saw operator can out cut a traditional saw 2 to 1. pretty amazing to see someone skilled operate one of these death traps. I have a video of a friend operating one, but I need to edit it before I could post it.

Stihl machining...

huskyboy · Nov 19, 2019

Spike upgrading day on stihls. Lol

redlight066 · Nov 19, 2019

I posted in the saw video thread a clip of Adam running his bow saw. Crazy m’fer

huskyboy · Nov 19, 2019

This part seems to wear out/disintegrate pretty quickly on the newer stihls. Resulting in floppier AV when it falls out. Be nice if someone could make up one out of a stronger material instead of foam. Maybe rubber of some sort? It is a bit pricey for a little foam piece.
