The fact that people buy *s-word like that makes me want to put a bullet in my head

 

[Sawdust Man]

Bought this smashed saw from boss man Bruce last week, but ups dropped it off at my house today.
It really is a fine example of a smashed saw...lol

I bought two new TV sets today, replacing two that were about 20 years old apiece. Added together the new ones cost less than one of the old ones that set me back $2,300 around 13 years ago. Rather amazing the difference in price trends between TV sets and chainsaws. Gasp!

Picked this up yesterday at horror freight.....

Back when I was a kid you had to make yer own outta lots of pieces.

I bought mine at Walmart.
I looked off and on for a year at different hardware stores. I would ask for a propane thief. And they would reply we don't sell propane, so their are no thieves.

Put the filter and cover on and it will be as good as new

Picked up these 2nd hand wheels and tyres, big improvement over the standard steel wheels it had.

That's a bargain price, Philbert. Years ago I took a far more expensive one with me to the work site. Nowadays I just take backup sharp chains with me.

China 90* foredom attachment.
A Foredom clone should be here tomorrow.

I've got one of those. It's easy to get chatter going with it. It could be my cutters though. But so far that 90 is the only one that does it. The gears sound dry, might take it apart and add some grease. Mines the black version.

Thanks for the advice!, I had a junk cylinder I was going to test it out on first. But I'll tear it down and put some more/better grease in it.
Do you use the same style cutters I do? (The single flute in photo).

Single flute but strait. I'm sure the curved one are smoother. I'll grab a picture for you in the am.

I have a straight cylinder one and yeah the end of it will leave gouges that are, usually not worth it or damaging to float out.
Like I still have a few straight lines in my exhaust from it.

This is the level of finish mine give. (The small straight lines are from the straight cylinder I walked most of it out with the rounded ones)

Here's my 90* tool. Also a picture of the cutter I use. This cutter cuts nice and smooth intill it starts to full up with the aluminum. I just clean it out and keep going.

I got a little carried away and bought 60+ NOS bars in the past week...hopefully I will sell a few of them next year.

Mostly D176 mount but a few K095 and D009 as well.

I could use a nice looking Mac bar for my 850 if any of the D176's fit that bill.

 

[Partner]

I think I have D 176 in Homelite SXLAO

‘K095’ sounds like a COVID mask.

Or, an FM station that plays ‘the Oldies’.
