What's on your bench?

Come on up. First of the year here.View attachment 95675

Looks like a nice place to visit.......but.....

 

[Tor R]

Bought a few trashy saws today....they all need a real good steam wash as a starter!!!
This old 444 SG will provide me with the missing brake flag, I've waited for one for about 2 years now, at least my better looking 444's will be complete


I never had an 238SG, missed it totally in my collection, all I had was a nos jug. This one is from year 85 week 42. If the inside is good I'll hunt down a better looking top&start cover + original clutch cover.


Could be worse....


and this one came....

Does Husqvarna sell handlebar hose to recover their bars like Stihl sells?

no, but I've brought up the issue with Husqvarna Norway (1/2 year ago) and they should discuss it with Husqvarna in November month.
I can only say that Husky Norway liked the idea

I did remind them that Stihl provide hoses for their customers.......

I guess we just has to see, but for them to order some handle bar hoses from the factory and give them a part number can't cost them much.

I picked one up for Ted a year or so ago,only one I've seen around here. If I'd realized they were so rare I might've kept it. [emoji6]

the biggest seller here Brian was the 254SG/XPG, wouldnt surprise me if the sale volume was 50% 254's.
242G/XPG was mostly sold to pro's who wanted a light performance saw, them who had their main income from the forrest also bought chunks of 242's.
The main reason for the amount G saws here in Norway is because Husky only took 10-30$ extra for the G system.
Them 242's are rare here also, I almost never see any of them get serviced by any of my dealers nowadays

No Sir.

Sometimes I consider writing a book about Husqvarna 2xx serie chainsaws.....My life in dirt!


them pre filters has put many of them down, I've seen people drilling holes in the top covers to solve the issue


238....it shouldn't be easy, just another thing I need to get from Magnus

I might know someone interested in the XPG parts if the rest of the saw cannot be saved.

sure, but give me a few days to clean up the dirty ones and I need to check if the resistance is correct, can't ship over stuff to you who doesnt work

Them cases are in the dishwasher at the moment, second round

Finished up my Mofo 034Super. Al found me a nice badge as the cherry on the top. Red97 new style medium deflector. Japanese Zama with an original Tillotson on the way.

 

[Backtroller]

 

[MustangMike]

Save that Japan carb, I think they are desired.

 

[Backtroller]

Thanks. It's not going anywhere. If I have luck with the Tilly, this Japanese version will be going on my Mofo 036.

 

[Backtroller]

Best running Zama I've ever owned
