I have no need for another project, if the OP wants to unload it, fine. If not, I have an entire build series on my youtube channel he can watch to guide him through the build and I'll answer any and all questions along the way. Not sure where i've gone wrong here T Roller....
Alot of the parts you say we're junk were very usable just not perfect. Making it sound like this saw ain't worth building so you can get it for cheap is slick but obvious

"slick but obvious" ... so..... not so slick huh? ...more obvious than slick? .... so... just obvious then. gotcha.

So say that. If you have a problem with what I'm saying or doing call me out on it.

To the OP, I don't need another project. I really don't. Someone else here in this thread offered to build this for you for cost of parts + ship. That was a super generous offer. If you are unsure of your ability to build the saw then take that dude up on his offer.

To T Roller. Those cases are junk, likely that muff is junk, air filter cover junk etc. I'll stand by what I said because I meant it...NOT because I was angling. I couldn't care less whether I get some parts out of this or not. Believe me, or not. Up to you. If you don't believe me, just say so. But again, I've done enough of these things to know when its time to call parts junk and get new stuff. This project is totally worth that....and I'm pretty sure sayin so aint a bad thing.

Slick but obvious yes. Some can see it others are totally blind

no worries matt partly my fault because I was busy between this and other threads plus texting
I was doing the same and my battery was dying.
Just so you know it was all your fault, cause I was agreeing with what you said,all of it. You just got frustrated with me asking questions and it didn't help that you weren't listening to half of what I said. But I am super duper sorry that I got you flusterd!

And sorry that I tangled up the OPs thread trying to explain that I agree with you and trying to get you to PAY ATTENTION.
Sweet dreams....

Who Dall? Me? I don't think that there will ever be any thing close to being new with this saw, but could definitely be functional. And avoid scrapping it.
Don't you agree?
