880 toy

[T.Roller]

I didn't even run it or Randy's. Ran an 084 at a few gtg that Dave Neiger built.

Ran Randy's pip saw the first time I met him.....I still have a scar from it

Most likely I had ran that same saw at one time or another also .Fact if it's the one Kevin had I hit the kill switch going to the cant at the Ohio championships .Didn't cut a very good time on that one .Chit happens !

That DN084 may have been the one I had for a short time, sucker was a beast, felt like you were holding the handle bars of a KX250 when it was wound up tight. Jack said it could run on pipe or muffler, never tried the muffler. Way too much saw for me, lol.

The 880 looks fun, wish I were closer to give it a run.

It was. It's fun. I need to rig up a kill switch on this one.

If it's the same one I was talking about it ran with a muffler very well .Dave was a little crude about things but he certainly could make one run.

I saw him in action with a box full of wine and a die grinder .Never measured a thing got into the famous 999 Oleo Mac that Gypo had and cut about two seconds off the cut time.All that in less than half an hour while we were playing with two cubic inch saws with tuned pipes .----that was back in the day we all got along well ---What ever happened with that I'll never know .

Well when ppl say the 880 is a motorcycle with a chainsaw chain, now this is the true definition of it. That is going to lay a whooping on most any other 880 3120 out there

Yes it is. Many thanks to Adam for sending me this stuff to play with. As soon as I get set up for welding aluminum at home I'll have a lot more fun.

I hope we can get a lot more of these together. Need to try to promote the races that Steve Winstead puts on at the fair.

 

[Jwalker1911]

Need a compressor with air shift

 

[Stihl working Hard]

What a awesome project there Mike you have some really neat stuff going on with that saw thanks for sharing

 

[Stihl working Hard]

Working on carb plates now. Not sure what to run. HL 360 or 380 would be much easier linkage.

It's like a top fueler saw

Nothing more done besides linkage. Waiting on the pipe to get here. I hope to get on it next weekend.
