Overhauled a lawnboy took me around 4 hrs to get motivated and 2 hrs to put it all together i went through the entire engine even had to send the crankshaft to the machine shop to get cleaned up replaced all bearings and seals along with piston, rings, wrist pin,clips and caged rollers.
Had the cylinder hot tanked by a friend and i performed a light hone with a bottle brush and had the exhaust ports ground of carbon. it ran well and only needed a new needle and seat in the carburetor had to replace the primer bulb and lines. thanks to @KYsawman for the mower.
The mower i overhauled is in the middle.

Yesterday:
- swapped out the winter tires for summer tires on my and my parents car
- mowed the lawn around the house
- BBQ for lunch during a rain shower
- used the weed whacker along all the places the mower didn't reach

Today:
- power washed the two sets of winter tires, picked the stones out of them and visually inspected for damage, stored them for the summer
- cleaned my PS-7900 a bit, sharpened two chains, fueled all saws up awaiting some log bucking fun at my uncle's
- gave my light (small) car trailer a layer of paint
- browsing OPE :)

Went to church this morning and now getting ready to fix supper for the females. We have out of town friends for the last few days so instead of just cooking for Groundi and me, it's a group of 8 of us. On the menu by consensus are hot dogs on the grill, Ramen noodles as a side dish, home made onion rings made out of Vidalia onions. Speaking of which, guess I better get peeling and slicing...

I'm one that will never turn down a cedar round always looking for kindling so my friend said he had a nice round so I went and got it from him yesterday; that sucker made the truck drive funny and the brakes didn't work so good either the front end was like it was floating coming down I-5 just about 4 1/2 foot dia

Well when I said I wanted to do the whole saw I was only half serious. Then I threw a couple logs in the woodburner and opened the vent. Now I'll sandblast the wrinkled paint off along with the rest of the case halves and either paint or powder coat it!

Update...

Dropped the parts off this morning and picked them up this afternoon! This is going to be an awesome saw for somebody soon!

Those pics on this screen looks perfect. When I had my 2186 Jonsered powder coated I thought for sure we missed it. To rich of a red. Saws altogether now and it looks great. Husky plastics are all over the place color wise.
