that's a bad mfer !
When I picture a saw that what I envision.

I ain't calling any pot or kettle black. Come on now Dub. I got one different saw. I got a Hooskie 345.

Love the bar, never saw one of those saws. But it is nice.

I got a CA you can try out.

Haven't run it in a few years.

 

[RI Chevy]

Maybe next GTG Steve. Thanks.

Have you ran it?

 

[RI Chevy]

I did run it. But I am waiting to get the plastic wire tie replaced with a metal clamp. I don't want to risk it. Just me.

Runs very fine. Since I wasn't able to get the original mechanical ignition
to work I converted it to chip-ignition. Runs juts fine since then, although
opportunity to do actual wood-cutting is missing.
Too many other saws waiting for a challange.

That’s was the best way to go , these are temperamental when the ignition starts playing up I got three here I sold this oddball below last year

I bought the CA because a CA was the first motorsaw in our house. My father bought
one in August 1973, but sold it in exchange for a STIHL 029 in the 90s.

When I presented this CA to him, it was something like recalling long lost memories.
A couple of days later he presented me the original bill for his DOLMAR CA.

I'm hoping to acquire a CA to go with the CT and 118 at some point.. I think the early '70's Dolmars are the real deal!

I'll take one of those with my 7300 sticker!

Yes no problem but look what arrived yesterday not what I ordered

 

[mettee]

Ugh! Did they send the wrong stuff?

 

[ajschainsaws]

Yep , I’ve emailed and will get an answer soon

 

[mettee]

I'll take that dolmar sticker too.

 

[RI Chevy]

The sticker has to be good for a tenth in the cut, No? lol

 

[mettee]

2/10'ths at least.

I wonder what would happen if I combine the magnum sticker with the dolmar sticker.

Nothing.

You need the Xtra Potato sticker to complete the trifecta.
