What's on your bench?

I went to install a MaxFlow on my 440 and wound up discovering that the tank got pretty busted up after it took a tumble the other day. Now have 3 of the world's most expensive trash-can fillers!

What do you keep in this?



I can see a mini wedge. Presume you have scrench, spark plug, chains, bar mount nuts, e-clips and a few other spare parts?

Good idea!

Those Kats hold their value. Yours looks great, neighbors 3 boys and now 2 grandsons have made theirs a little rough. They destroyed a couple sno-scoots also.

Is it even worth fixing? Does not sound durable.

Troy Bilt 6.5 hp walk behind blower. Standard carb clean, oil change, new plug. And a beer of course.

My girls blew up the stock motor the second season..last winter I spent waaaay to much time transplanting a 212cc 4 stroke in the thing. Was quite a challenge keeping the hood stock, and a working headlight.
Its got a Kubota mini alternator with custom brackets and pulleys with a 12v battery and voltage regulator now. But it'll pull a sled behind it with 3 kids in deep snow now..

They're inexpensive that's why there's so popular around here
A Honda or whatever are double the price.
Bat country Honda clones are around 250-350.00
I've had one for 16 years only had to do a 10.00 carb last year
Hundreds of hours on it.
My family members have 5 of them
And there's 7 or 8 of them my neighbors have
Our power goes out often in winter
The valves were only 10.00 for new one's.
She gave 50.00 for the generator
It's worth 60.00 I'd think.

Got this engine running and setup how I want it so I can put it on my Wright stand on mower.

Chicom garbage?

Just like Stihl stuff!

Cleaned up a very ugly clutch cover and gave it some new paint.

 

[RI Chevy]

Looks great Ronie.

Thanks, it turned out better than I thought it would.

On my saws I like the gunning line to be black, and painting them black doesn't seem to last...or turn out looking crisp so I tried another process using Birchwood Casey aluminum black, its a acid that is used in gunsmithing. I sand the face edge of the raised gunning line till all the aluminum is shining, and lightly warm the clutch cover with a heat gun. Once its really warm to touch, I use a Q-tip dipped in the acid and one or two swipes on the warm exposed aluminum turns it BLACK..and I've found it very durable. I've never painted one that had such crisp edges..and I've tried many times. It also works like a champ on the STIHL lettering.

That's a good idea, I started to paint the letters but it looked crappy so I painted over what I had done.

This is the stuff..after your finished use water and wash the surface to nuturalize the acid then put a light coat of oil..
