What's on your bench?

346xp cylinder had some damage on bottom of exhaust port so ported it up best I could with what I had no machine work or the exhaust would free port so just simple raised transfer and opened up lowers lowered exhaust some

2511T looking a little more like a saw now. Still waiting on an air filter and a muffler but it did start, run and it oils.

Needs a couple small bits but just about done

I swapped the full wrap from the new 064 to my old 064, the OEM 3/4 wrap from my old 064 to my 066, and the aftermarket wide clutch cover to my 034. Now I need to find an OEM wide clutch cover for my 066. My wife says I’m playing with dolls. Pretty much. Let’s call it what it is. I do this entirely for fun and nostalgia.

New or used?

New or used?

Lol, you do have a few,

 

[jacktheripper]

New or used?

Used is fine. Just halfway presentable or not cracked.

I got the 041 full wrap in the mail today from @Bill G. Bolted it up to the 041 Super. Also did fuel lines, carb kit, and bigger dogs. There’s a chainbrake clutch cover coming in the mail for it.

Anybody have one of the blocks that bolts to the upper frame assembly and holds the hand guard on? eBay wants too much. I have a hand guard.

 

[singinwoodwackr]

Should fire it up today...
Or not...v&p failed badly. Sprayed everywhere and could hear it but...
Finally pulled the oiler...don't know how I missed the corrosion

42 24 o rings will be here tomorrow but I may need to swap case halves...sigh...

 

[bigbadbob]

Have a beater 266,, put a popup in it,,, not much change,, so put the oem slug back in.
It was also a bear to start,, i was afraid of busting the starter.
165 compression stock so im happy.
Bought the saw for $20 as a parts saw not running worth a dang.
kill wire was skinned at the flywheel and intermittently grounding out.
its my beater loaner saw now,,

I haven't figured out how to get photos from my new phone to the computer, but this week so far has been an MS462 rescue saw, John Deere branded Remington, top handle Husqvarna, Mantis tiller, Dolmar 133, and currently Solo 662. I was really happy with the John Deere Remington, I believe the the owner will be pleased as well. The 133 has the governed Tillotson that acts up from time to time, but the more it runs it seems to keep getting better.

Well, found a new o ring...borrowed fron another oiler...and ran a bead of Dirko around the thing. Let I tet up for a few hrs...no joy not as bad a leak, but. Won't hold pressure at all.
Gonna have to start over and swap in another case half, sigh...

2nd pic shows where the sealer...didnt...

Before I tear this thing down...is there a better sealer for voids this bad that might work?

 

[heimannm]

I have had success with Threebond (1184?) in some situations where Dirko was not sufficient. You may have to give it a little more time to cure fully when there are larger gaps, and really hope you don't have to clean it up and start over.

Ordered a tube…pricey
So, give it 48hrs to cure?

I don’t have experience with 1184, but I have used 1211 quite a bit on old Yamaha Enduro 2-strokes. It takes about 12 hours or so and can seal gaps pretty well.

Do you use gmail? If so, as a temporary measure, start to compose a new gmail message on your phone, add the photos as attachments, then close the message so that it is saved as a draft. Then on your computer you will be able to open the same draft in gmail and download the photos.

A better way is to use the free 15gb storage in Google Photos. Most phones can be set to back-up gallery photos to a Google Photos account. That account can be accessed on a web browser on your computer.

Actually it was pretty simple, just needed to know where to swipe...







The Solo is currently taking a bath.



The Mantis needed the throttle limbered up and reconnected plus a spark plug, the Husqvarna needed a primer bulb, bar straightened and dressed, and the chains sharpened.

I also found time to get this bar painted and the letters applied to finish off an Echo/John Deere for a customer.

1184 is pricey? Look up Dow Corning 730... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1438398453...kexIXM-qlp3YdbnVWLBc0VgV4usivFckaAtpjEALw_wcB



As you can see, I use the Dirko HT most often, much easier to clean up when I have to do it over again.

1184 says it sets up in 20 minutes but I give it overnight in cases where there are larger gaps. It does get pretty tough when it cures.
