Built an OEM kick stand for a 346xp

[Backtroller]

I love the saw @t4driller built but I hate that it falls over constantly. It's ridiculous. I really didn't like any after market Spikes and wanted it to be low profile. I wanted something that looked like Husqvarna made it.

@TreeLife sent me two 562 spikes and my plan was to combine one with the 346. I cut both the 346 and 562 spikes and welded them together. The bottom of the 346 tank has a ridge and it needs three points to balance. The shadow in the center in the rear is the ridge of the tank Anyone have access to a water jet? They'd be easy to cut out. I did all of the hard work.

So best of all, it won't fall over now. It's stihl or dolmar stable. A little black paint and it's gtg.

Nice.

Excellent idea. Very inventive!

 

[TreeLife]

Nicely done Pat! Glad they got there safely

Pretty enough for a saw that gets used

That main reason to do this modification was not to use the spikes as they are intended. I wanted it to not roll over every time I set it on the ground.

Have to admit the rolling saw is 1 thing I dnt like about the hooskies, but dang they run good, looks like problem solved, great idea!

There were a few there. I think I did.
I gotta get me a piped Stihl.

Looks good pat. I like that they are small but effective. I'm not a fan of the large falling spikes.

I made a kickstand, too. Didn't really need outer spikes for grip but it helps protect the case, muffler and most of all is very stable now.

Hehe now you're cookin'.

Looking over some guys' saw collection is like having Stevie Wonder show you his car collection.
