What's on your bench?

I take it very slow Dan, step by step system and ideas. Thought I should make so it will be effective when I start to port.
Maglight is quality but I hope to find a smaller style, pen style flashlight (2xAAA), but if can't find quality I'll defently go for a maglight.

Steamlight has several pen light sizes to choose from. Some are very small. Streamlight is pricey, but good quality. Mine has been washed in the laundry twice and still works like new. This one is 2 x AAA

When working inside I generally use a LED head lamp, but when that is not enough I break out one of my rechargeable lights we use on the bikes at night, more than bright enough, and never needs batteries.

I own several made by Cygolite and am very pleased with them. They also stand behind their products, the mount on one broke when I was riding on a rough road, and the light ended up in never never land. I called them, and they sent me a new light, no questions asked.

Got a T540XP that lost its impulse line and stuck the ring, high hour saw so getting a complete reseal along with bearings and ring, a 272XP that I put a new to end on, waiting on a new oil tank vent ( it POURS!!!!!) A 51 getting a new 55 top end, and a 039 getting a new clutch drum along with tank vent and just in general going over, all for the same tree service. Oh, and his 385XP is in for bearings and seals as well. Also have a pair of BR 600s for a take two and make one, a Husqvarna 580 BTS that needs a new coil, a Husqvarna 326 HD 60 that needs new knives and rods in the gearbox, a Husqvarna 36 that needs the entire fuel system replaced, and an Echo PPT 260 that needs a reseal and new rings. Oh, and MY HT 75 needs a reseal and new rings, and I still have to find time to put the engine back in my Walker MTGHS. AND my buddy's Walker MTGHS that I sold him just ate the time delay modgule. So really it's kind of slow right now.

The customer opted for a port job instead of jug replacement, so I gave it a good makeover.

Now it's time to install new crank seals and reassemble.

Nice work there

That 044 fix didn't turn out too bad at all. Here's a little clip of the first cuts before break in. It's also running a low raker set up chain from my 064/066 and 075 so it wanted to keep binding up under load.

Saw is running great nice job

Added a xpg decal. Then fired it up and got it to start idleing. Next will be getting it into some wood and see how she does.

Nice looking saw there

Awesome job there

Makita multi tool... Something inside broked. View attachment 29512 View attachment 29513

Ordered the whole front 'bellcrank' assembly for $35. $100 would buy me a new one, but I'm being cheap.

Yep, I would fix that also.

 

[Stihl working Hard]
