What's on your bench?

[Mastermind]

I just watched @Mattyo 's video on youtube. I'm thinking I must have rolled the seal last time, so now I at least have a better idea what I'm looking for.

Thanks everyone for the advice.

Looks like I was thinking of the 288.

Disregard my post. LOL

I thought 288 and 394 shared a crank?

For those who swap alot of seals on Huskies, those seal sleeves are worth every dolar

Actually, one seal sleeve cost less then a seal

They do....but the oil pump holds the seal on the 288. Unless my mind has turned to mush again.

A lot of the 2 series saws are this way. 3120 too.

excellent vid
just adding my $0.02:
I prefer a thin, yet somewhat rigid, plastic over the aluminum. I don't trust ANYTHING sharp up against my seal lips. Can find the plastic on toy, or otherwise, boxes.
I lubricate my seal and plastic with grease so-as to minimize friction.
When driving the seal home i put a flat washer over the shaft that will fit flatly on the case so my seal does not go in cocked.
Learned all these tricks the hard way. Just sayin

I like the grease and flat washer trick. Thanks for the input.

My buddy's XL-12. Reassembled the carb and sharpened the chain. Still waiting for intake gaskets.

This is a later model Super 33, early ones still had the much smaller 33 air filter.

Speaking of 395. This was on a saw that came from Jason Stratton Jms

looks like it was worn out so it was shimmed with paper or something.

I replaced it. 10-15 bucks. I don’t remember.

One I could not rescue.

Reassembled the 051. Got it running and base tuned. Pulling about 9700 and max is 10000. Test cuts tomorrow then to get a loop of RMF for the 36" bar. She's pretty blubbery but seems to clean up in the cut.
