[Zackeepr1]

Picked this up from @Dfurka50 and I have to say he was great to deal with. The saw is exactly as described and it screams with a 28 inch bar.

Old School Big block ,

Just picked up the very dirty remains of an ex-hire 2013 550xp Mk1 for £40 ($52). Big chunk of the piston missing. It will never run again but the parts are worth more than that to me. The cylinder looks usable, despite what happened to the piston. I'm going to swap it into a 550xpg I have that ate it's rings.

Solo Multimot 100 for $7 I added a string handle and extended the wire to the spark plug, the fuel tank wire was replaced, it lit quickly and was included with the brushcutter / one side handle I have never seen , at least 35 years old

My Solo Multimot collection

Just picked up a water pump to add to my collection of Solo Multimot accessories. From the 80s so are they classed as My old Machines ?. You bought an engine then buy various accessories depending what you wanted. I now have 4 engines, a water pump, a chainsaw, hedge cutter and 3 brand new boxed...

Dang, and at the dump no less!

An old timer taught me a trick to cleaning up badly rusted cast-iron. Get a raging hot burn pile that is down to a mound of hot coals, dig a hole in the mound with a layer of coals on the bottom still, place iron in and cover up. Come back 12-36 hours later and the rust falls off if even still clinging.

Try an e-tank sometime.
Works on the most rusted of vintage chains as well.
Found a pipe wrench that was buried,hung it in the tank and a week later it was functioning.
