Uncle Lee,

Twenty three was just a W.A.G.(wild ass guess).

I've talked with quite a few on the phone, but I recall that I have only met five in person.

Jon knows me well. These 166's are probably my all time favorite saw.
This one i built using a damaged cylinder and had it bored 4mm over
and used a Stihl 084 piston which i modded to work. Saw runs well and
pulls like a freight train. Went from a 56mm bore to a 60mm and now
at 136cc's.

Very nice!

I still need to run a 661 some day. I will probably lean towards a 390 or 395 but I want to run all three before spending the money once...

All nice saw, I love my 395, but my 288 I run daily. And the thought of a 390 being the resurection of a 288 excited me. I want one. Revised edition I guess

I have a 390 I picked up a couple months ago..have started it a few times...but haven't put it
In any wood.

Wow I do want one. You going to cut with it soon or keep it parked awhile? I've heard nothing but good things about them. Looks like an amazing saw, if it's near what the 288 is, which I'm sure it is, it's most worthy then on way to work today, oak down across county road, 288 comes out again

 

[Frank bierce]

As much as I hate to admit it...work is slow where I'm at. Quit the company I have been with for the last 10 years last week. Going to have to travel for work. It is going to be parked for a little while. Most likely until mid spring or so.

Beautiful saw my friend, definitely one of today's best.

 

[Normzilla]

Muscle saws are eternal. Nothing like one. Think my first was well had a nice 056, along with a 2100 Homelite.

 

[Normzilla]

Brought home another 288xp tonight

 

[Frank bierce]

Here are a few...

 

[heimannm]

SP81 and PM800, lots of attitude for 5 In³





1-85, just makes 6 In³ but the gear drive pulls pretty hard



SP015, 106 cc or 6.5 In³



SP118 aka 166 is over 7 In³



Mark

 

[heimannm]

Super 797 @ 123 cc or 7.5 In³



SP125, 7.5 In³



Jonsered 930



Stihl 066, I sold this one...



Mark

 

[heimannm]

1-76 in big locust



1-72 in Norway Maple (took over where the o66 left off...)



I'm running my 7900 in the background, not sure which saw Josh has up front.



Later that day Josh got out his big saw



The PM850 is a pretty effective weapon as well
