Yeah Mike, we'll just leave her like that for now.

Yes that grey cover looks sweet and pretty I gotta say I like the grey top cover on the 42 special better than the orange cover

I just scored these for $20, I think they are NOS and that looks like a 44 or 444 white top in there with a few other 44 bits. Is that the top that the 44 should have?

Early 44's did have a white top, then went to the gray tops like the 61 did.

Most of that stuff you got is NLA from Husky. Good score for $20.

The bottom pic ... That looks like a Stihl 048 av air box cover ?

That's what I was thinking too, or maybe an 042. There were two different covers for that series.

I really bought it for the 181//281 pullstart and I like the look of the 051 handle as well.

Good to know. I don't have any other 44 parts, they seem pretty rare here. Any idea what the orange top cover fits?

Curious what these weigh...any chance you can scale them? Any way you prefer is fine by me...full of fluids and ready to cut, or empty PHO.

I enjoy the compact saws of yesteryear. Seems the new machines, although strong performers, are getting portly For their displacement.

Jack weighed his 242 pho dry, pic from above thread.

Looks like 480CD; something in that family.

Im still leaning towards 048 as i think the 042 av has a knob on the cover and the 048 is without.
Unless... the sticker is covering a hole ?

....

....and the 50. I also believes the 40 that preceded the 44 as the "practica" saw in that saw family (not the later plastic cased one) had a white top cover.

Attached is a WS manual about those saws, issued at a late stage (1987). The models they left out of it was the earliest ones, the 140 and 240 ones. Another model that isn't mentioned is the 644, which I have been told was a late production version of the 44 for the Japanese market.

 

[Spike60]

The 40 and 44 may have been on the market together for a couple years, with the 44 continuing longer. My 44 white top has Rancher on it. (It will be in the video) There was also a 340 that I think was identical to the 240. So, there are 3 models in that family that share models numbers with later saws.

Art limbing with a 242. Out of above thread.

Spike your friends 30min plus video he did on the 242 etc. All from the thread too. Looking forward to your guys new video too.

Not to be rude here , but I think you deserve a big "you suck"! Very nice looking saw's. Are you a collector Bob?

 

[Tor R]

Those old small Huskies,
I thought the same as Niko:
140 -> 240
340 -> 40 Practica -> 44 Practica -> 444

Yes - 40, 240 and 340.

Practica vs. Rancher to some extent had to do with time (Practica came first) - but the market the saw was destined for was a factor for a while as well.
