That's cool. I remember my grampaw made a box similar to that for his old blue homelite. I don't remember it having a lid though.Here’s what came with the 075 when I got it. View attachment 326495View attachment 326496View attachment 326497View attachment 326498View attachment 326499
I actually gave that some thought. Then thought better.We've seen how well the saw cleaned up, now lets see how well the case cleaned up!
It’s gorgeous!One of my favorite tool boxes:

Cherry, about 5/16" thick and lots of box joinery and edge gluing. The top tray lifts out. Quite a project in my woodworking days.
Thing is, forum, I never made a tool box big enough to hold a chainsaw. I did make a few scabbards using hardwood, but I was told by most that they were too heavy, so I gave up making them. Box making was something I truly enjoyed. Here's a hip roof tool box made using 5/16" walnut.It’s gorgeous!
There were several threads on A.S.There was a thread (somewhere?) About a case for big saws like the 084 and such and alot of DYI cases but nothing aftermarket or oem.
Alot of people suggested that a cheap Coleman cooler would be a good candidate for a hard case but I never saw a complete project.
I tried some fire hose that a fellow enthusiast provided, but I was concerned that how wet it stayed might lead to rust.
