Todays snag

[Matt Ellerbee]

I'm down to 9 or 10 corded saws now. People don't appreciate them, so they go cheap at garage sales (or into dumpsters!). Cost to ship it would probably exceed its value.

Hang onto it, put a sharp chain on it, and keep a good extension cord nearby. You may be surprised at how convenient it may be!

It would take longer to roll up the cord when done, than to crank my top handle. Lol!

I’ll prob keep it as man cave fodder. Will prob look good beside my 015.

The 28” is wide a nose, minty with 1 skip chain.
Three 25” bars are serviceable and 3 of the 25” chains are freshly sharpened.
The 20” is NOS but has rust and paint peeling.
16” .325 Stihl bar is junk.
1 16” .325 Oregon chain is brand new.
Longest is a 3/8 .050 36”.
All chains will be serviceable, most need sharpening.

Not a pretty pickup today, but I’ll take it..
$40
Started up with a little fuel down the carb...compression feels great. And a nice wrap handle to boot!!

How much does she weigh?

Not sure it's hanging on a chain in my shop now.

Picked up this Homelite 550 today for $50, seller told me his father had it rebuilt but it came back with such high compression he struggled to start it, so it got put aside for another saw.
I didn't really believe the story until I turned it over and *f-word, it's got killer compression.
Hope to play with it tomorrow in the daylight.

First attempt of just priming it and it wouldn't even try to start, took off that transformer spark plug thingy and noticed the contacts were very dirty and had a bug living inside, cleaned contacts and first pull she fired. Very happy.
Needs the fuel system cleaning and recoil spring is very sticky

1050 Really loud, really heavy, not that fast. But fun to make a cut or two with.
