What's on your bench?

Has anyone ever taken a Tsumura 20” 3/8 0.063 bar and swapped the tip to a .325 0.063?

No but I don't see why you couldn't.

I picked up a couple cheap Husky projects today, just wanted to study how those cheap 435 and 445 look inside.

445, year 2012, kinda locked:


It all started with a bearing failure:


I expected the 435 to be a toasted saw, seems I got a bit lucky with this saw:

3/8 or 325? That bucker really cuts. Well...you almost bucked.

(only axed bc of the 9 pin reference, I dozen't has that)

Great job there Al, that looks real nice!

Did you make the exhaust roof flatter than usual on that one?

I've had good luck with luck with the 435's. Sell them as fast as I can get them. One has been out for 4-5 yrs. to 5'3"125# woman. She loves it easy to start. Her BIL liked hers so much he bought him one last year. With 435-440 carb. issues. 445-450 has been coils. Coil shows spark@ crank speed but dies when it advances.

@Tor R I think you can install a 440 piston in the 435 to gain a little compression (that’s how they got that bump in hp over the 435). 440 surprised me for a stock 40cc homeowner saw. Not a beast but not bad.

thank you for superb information, its a class who is new for me.
IPL say: 435&440 and 445&450 share the same coil.
My 435 suffer from a bad carb, cleaning process over the night and we'll see.
I'm in doubt with the coil also, but that will be step two.
What I've seen so far with the 435 I actually like the saw, if I should go cheap I would pick a 435 anyday over the 445.

I gotta study the last IPL's, I wonder if the piston is the same while the cylinder is the difference from 435 and 440.
Can we be so lucky that its only the transfer covers who is the difference?

I think I gotta get a few more of those saws, I need one to split in pieces, would prefer one of each. I'm a bit currious how those transfer ports look, but if they,'re like 445 I think we can gain a bit with our dremmel.

While speaking about them, gone order some service tools for them 435/440 and for the 445/450.
Another thing with 435/440.... Crank threads are the same as 543 use....

No but I don't see why you couldn't.

It's certainly possible, but the DL count may not line up perfectly with what you'd expect (I'd expect 78 for a 20" .325). I converted an 18" .325 oregon bar to 3/8 for someone and it came out to 64DL instead of the expected 68, as the 18" .325 bar was actually shorter than a standard 18" 3/8 bar in that situation...

Thanks. And funny how that works. And 64 dl, 3/8s sounds like an 18" Dolmar bar I had once. Kind of irritating.

there is some differences between "E and II types" of these "135, 435, 440" saws. if the coil goes bad, be sure what type saw u have, or order by partnumber what's on the coil. i had once case where i tryed to swap brand new coils, between them and they only worked when they had "right" coil setup.

Got this one from work. Complete. Getting stripped down and cleaned and a good look over.

Good saws. Very "robust".

 

[tickbitintn]

Built like a brick S house...
Built one for myself that had been in a box for a couple years... Used a tecomic slug in it.... Ran long enough to tune it....
Chain I had on it was total $#1π...
First one I've built that was "new" enough to have a chain brake!! Lol

First 028 Super I've had my hands on. Seen plenty of 028 av's and the sorts. It's super dirty,but complete, minus some mismatched fasteners. It's all torn down soaking in diesel. Probably finish cleaning Thursday or Friday.

Never saw a set of rings so lose fitting on a saw before either. Not great pics but sure is a lot of movement in them.
