Just got my window all trimmed on the outside. Had this Van Mark aluminum brake for half my life. Money well spent. Time for lunch then time to tackle the inside trim. And for the record black coil stock is a mother to work with.View attachment 99380 View attachment 99381

Nice brake...I’ve broke 100 miles of coil metal in my younger days!

No. Going to be a very busy winter for me here

Well, I actually started with the 7900. But it didn't last long. It quit mid-cut. Guessing it's the coil. Finished up 2-1/2 sides with the 288. Runs good. The carb definately has the governor. H screw all the way in and stuff

Have you tried felling with a 288?
My friends 038 fried and he borrowed one of my 288s
He cut through the hinge on several tree's lol
He said the 288s were too damn fast.

Here's an idea for a room addition
Hope it's a diesel for a pleasing rumble as you sleep.

No need to worry about P-revs. Put a long bar on it and sink it in a big chunk of wood. If it holds high in the cut then it's doing it's job dot dot dot
