What the title says. I dont care if its a basket case as long as its halfway descent and can be brought back to life.

Thanks Jon

He's a few days to late. I just got rid of the 288's that I had.


Although I am learning from the grapest chipper who has ever chiped saws to get em sent out.

Did someone say 288

The one on AS I'd stay away from for the price. Aftermarket top end and hacked up top cover for $500. Seems way high

I just got a shipment of 281 and 288 parts saws in from fleabay.

However I promised one to Brian in WI.

There is some 181 thin ring runners in my racks and one that is smoked....

Plus the 288/181 thin ring I built because Skippy ticked me off is done. I built it with a cylinder gasket to get it running before port work.

I can't quite decide what to do with it. Sell it, have it ported it as is, or stick a 2 piece 281 jug in it and have a little work done on the crank....

I agree seeing as I sold an OEM one that was in good shape for $410 recently

181 thin ring saws are supposed to make for a really solid racesaw......allegedly.

Oh? Do tell, Brother Bill.
