What's on your bench?

More of an on the tailgate….going to put crank bearings and seal in the ms250, he wants it running in trade for the other saws. The 064 he bought new in 88, he was a faller, still had great compression, but is going to need a handle

Making a Screwdriver for a hand plane... my goal is to have it look like the picture of the wooden driver. Im just using it as reference.

Looking forward to rebuilding this 395, parts are arriving

Another successfully tested saw. 61 husky. Hoping to hit the wood pile this weekend to do some tuning on this saw and the 162se. Weather isn't looking to be on my side, rain in the forecast, well see what happens.

Full house tonight. D44 has decided it won't pump fuel anymore, not sure what that's about but I found a more correct carb kit to order. Also figured out the clutch sprocket is too worn to run so it's probably gonna end up in time out while that is located.

1-42 got new fuel lines from Mr. Heimann.

The Zip is just up there so I don't trip over it, fired on the second pull tonight.

I have spur and rim type drums to fit you D-44 when you get to that phase of the project. I think the spur are all .404 and 7/16" pitch, I don't remember any 3/8" spur drums for the large frame saw.

Sears (Roper) D-44. If it was for a Mac it'd be a lot easier to find.

1979 028 on the bench now. Cool old saw. Minor cleaning and rebuild. Will be a lot better than when it came in . Was running a 20”, 3/8 b/c. Will swap to .325/18” for the small cyl/pis. Fabbed up a chain catcher but can’t add a chain brake. O well.

I picked up this early metal tank 028 last Summer, just sold it to my BIL a few weeks ago. It was in really nice shape and ran very well....

I bought one for 130.00 last week and would sell it for 75.00 today. After tearing down 2 xpg's, I learned that I don't want to work on this generation of saws.

If you still have the tool I will buy if your serious about selling, have 2 562’s to work on.

A little bit of everything...

Yep. The BP1 is a cat of a different color.

I was at a tractor show in KS with a group from OPE. I ran into an older guy and started talking about saws; he said he did research for McCulloch and worked on the BP-1. I told him to follow me. I took him to Alan (RIP my friend) and showed him his running BP-1. Alan let him run it and they talked saws---way over my head. The guy was happy as could be. Good times...

This is about the limit of my chainsaw repair ability; a new starter cord

 

[Partner]

You have to start somewhere
I remember that I started by replacing the fuel and impulse lines
In addition, I received a leaky air filter and carburetor from the service center, which I had to tune myself professionally

Today it was a metal roof. I'm glad that's done.

Sears saws and Lauson carbs. The gear drive is a fresh find. Rolled in with no spark, usual gross carb, oiler seems stuck too which is odd for a thing that sits in a tank of oil



Pretty sure old boy that was running the 647G was following the manual about using 30wt for mix oil.
