I finally got a chance to look at the 261. It started for me cold with 5 pulls and once warm 1 pull. Seemed normal to me. I think my Dad is just getting older and not pulling it as fast a he used to. I spent some much meeded time on his chain and bar. kinda sad seeing how he is getting...

Some day I would love to have a late Stihl 090 av Also a Husky 372xp and a Stihl ms361 would be nice. Complete but needing rebuilt is fun also.

My dad bought a 261 c several years ago. He has been complaining it takes too many pulls to start it hot or cold. I brought it home tonight but have not worked on an m-tronic before. He did not know where his owners manuel was so how do you reset the 261. I want to do that and look for any...

This is one I took down for my dad in February. A 46 inch dead ash that I hit three nails making the back cut. Glad when it was down.

I've had the habbit of finding the next video when he starts preaching. I do like when he uses crosscut saws and axe's for logging. Videotaping your entire simple life is kind of an oxymoron. Some good shop and tool ideas. I have been removing polyurethane from tool handles. I do like it...

Have anyone of you watched the Wranglerstar video's on youtube. I stumble across them and have entertained. Seems like a smart enough guy.

complete 090

the $600.00 asking seems like it might be high. I am going to pass on it but if anyone is intrested let me know.

Like I said I'm not a husky wealth of info. How big is a 2101 is it?

Sorry I'm not as versed in Husqvarna as I should. One number was warn off the starter cover and going on memory I came up with 3120 out of the 120 That were left but The Broken metal chain brake did not match the pictures I googles. It is a 2101 which the numbers 210 were on the cover. So...

What is a used husqvarna 2101xp in pretty nice shape worth. I looked at it at a dealer today. Seemed like good compression, good bar about 30" and about 75% chain. The hand guard/chain break is broke off. Other than that it looks very good.

Is that an 075 or 076 stihl on the bottom shelf? If so what condition and price?

Yesterday I was traveling and I spotted a string trimmer being thrown out. I turned around and picked it up. Today I took it in the shop and played around with it. To run it need a quarter turn out on both the low and high jet. It is just a Craftsman but has a build date of 1/16. Used one summer...

I bought one last fall at an auction. Early one with red lever and metal badges. Needed new A/V mounts and a good cleaning. Have $50.00 for it. The first I used it was last Monday and very happy with it.

Here are some pictures I took today of the 026. I finally had time to clean it up.
