typical it needs jb and extra screws
a dull chain makes the husky lovers think its really cutting because of the high rpm

Ish..
Top half anyway.
Rest is Carpathien leather with genuien whale penis overlays and plush carpeting throughout.
For the record, I did seal the riser to the cradle with Dirko, so its practically all moregoodseum now.

For the record, that little POS 350 has been a "found" saw for me.
All fun.
A friend put it in my truck and told me to fix it for a friend of his a few years ago.
I did. Main problem was someone did away with the tank vent and sealed the line shut so it wouldnt leak fuel.
Said "friend" wouldnt answer calls or any attempt I made to contact him, so the saw then became mine.
I put a 353 flat top piston in it and did a few things.
Helped wake it up some, but then this coonass from Louisiana named @Slumberjack offered to send me a cylinder for it.
After that, it needed a new intake boot and carb to feed that hungry little beast.
I sent Pat a pristine 261 that had been straight gassed for his troubles machining and porting the cylinder.
It somehow turned into a 262XP in sheeps clothing.
The only money I spent on that saw was for the 353 Meteor piston kit, 357 carb, and some shipping.
Ive gotten at least 3x that back from it in pure enjoyment and the knowledge that there are good folks out there that will help out for no good reason, other than to see someone else enjoy what they know how to do.

lol after i got sick in 2016 i spent hours in building standing there sharpening with round file
i got so i dont use a helper
just a file on a handle and if need to do rakers i dont use a gauge doing them either
i usually just match the filed area on the raker

Wife wanted a new TV for the bedroom. Took old TV down . Tv from living room moved to bedroom. Drove to Costco for new living room TV. Friend helped bring it inside and hang it up. Corner of the screen was damaged. Returned to Costco but couldn't get another one today. This is my current view.

I still use an old Oregon "guageit" plate for the depth guages(cause I have them from my days of having a little shop), and I'll cut them on my old 511A. Just easier on a chain thats filed pretty evenly.
I get some pretty messed up chains. Seems most folks, myself included, file one side a little different angle than the other when they try to hand file.
Ive taught myself better over the years.
I cant use a file guide. Ive tried several, and they just dont cut as well as a good hand file.
My "paw paw" could file a chain by hand that would cut like a laser, and he did it all by hand with the saw propped on a round of firewood hed just cut.
I tried different stuff for years to get to what he did, then one day when I got a little older it finally dawned on me.
He didnt worry about math and science, he just knew what felt right and worked well.
Once I started doing that, I got to where I could actually sharpen a chain that cut well.
One thing I did pick up on was giving each tooth a little upwards hit or 3 to help with chip clearance.
Not sure if thats a thing, but it seems to work well for me.

Not my night. The crank is junk too. Has a .0025 groove from the inner race spinning on it. Whats strange is the bearing has no damage other than the inner race worn from spinning on the crank, plastic cage and balls are intact and spins fairly well still. The bearing didn't spin in the case either. Bearing is original oem. Case still has the fine factory machining grooves in the bearing pocket and the bearing was tight in the case like it should be. I've seen bearings lock up and then spin in the case or on the crank but never seen this before and see no reason why it should've happened. No signs of excess heat in that area. Kind of a bummer

i have one the chain vises for in the building i use and i go by when the file slides through smooth
if file is grabby then it isnt sharp and im not afraid to grab a new file when its not showing metal dust
