What's on your bench?

The problem was home like gas caps, and or oil you need to take it slow because there’s always a duck Bill people go all crazy before they realize how it’s actually engineered

The problem with Homelite gas and oil caps is they had the black gooey duck Bill come 20 years later and even 5 you’re supposed to figure out why everything doesn’t run the same

Finally got this thing together.. I guess you could call it half redmax and half jonsered...going to be selling this soon..

Which parts did you use REDMAX on and I don't know what the REDMAX size is a Stepchild to a 2188/2186.
Your saw sure does look Purdy. I will try to watch for your listing.

The case and the top cover. It's a 390xp cylinder so wouldn't that be a 2188?

BP-1 is (was) a unique "balanced piston" design with one piston firing, and the other acting as a counter balance and sliding intake valve. The action of the balance piston working 180° to the firing piston increases the displacement within the crankcase for a supercharging effect.



We spent most of the day working on the primer for this one. The internals were not in good shape.

I wonder if parts like that could be printed.

Ah…back in the day…but it was a 289 in a ‘65 Mustang…

The BP-1 is getting a good clean up, I will do my best to make it operational, then fit it with an Automac bar and chain and put it in the display.

Words fail me when trying to describe how envious I am of your acquisition of that saw. I wanted a BP1 ever since learning about how unique they are.
