What's on your bench?

[blsnelling]

It's supporting it's own weight!

 

[Tor R]

picked up some oem tools at my dealer today:


Thought not to buy any projects, but that's how it goes, 200$ and they where all mine, none of them will be keepers, will try to flip some coins on them.




This one got killed by a truck.....

 

[a. palmer jr.]

The last saw I had on my bench was a 3.7 Roper. Still needs a bit of touching up.

 

[BrokenSVT]

A big ol' box from Treestuff.com.

That's pretty cool. What all did you get?

Honda EU2000i in for a new rope.

Weaver Cougar saddle, gonna Liger mod it; Split tail; 2 in 1 lanyard; Carabiners; throw bags and line; rings; pulley; rope of course; and of course a free hat and stickers lol...

ETA: Oh and a figure 8 and rope bag, plus some odd and end hardware.

Next order will include a nice helmet and spikes, but it has to wait. I have a MOFO 036 coming this week

I think replacing the whole engine in my Accord would be easier lol.

Right on. I recently got my gear and got started as well.

Awesome! We don't have the massive trees out here, but it's gonna be fun to "branch out"...pun intended.

What starter gear did you pick up? I've got my eye on a Pfanner Protos as soon as it's feasible. Longer ropes too, since I ordered just 120' to start. Once I'm comfortable with the old fashioned way, a Zigzag is on my radar too. Oh and a rigging setup.

I got the combo kit from wesspur. It's a rope and spur set up. Next will be a rigging kit for sure. I'm going to go old school split tail with a Blakes or VT for awhile. That zigzag does look really nice though.

 

[BrokenSVT]

I'm doing a Blake's via the split tail. I insist on learning the hard way till I'm super comfortable. I've got some great practice trees lined up, and some great teachers!

It lives.

It's always best to start with the dirty ones first, easier to appreciate the other ones .....353 year 06, got water in the fuel tank, saw is far better inside then outside, can't complain about one 40$ saw!


My simple tool system, time to get an friend of me to lathe out some seal adapters


crushed 560 xpg, always wonder how the heat element looks inside, that is work for tomorrow


while we are at them 5xx serie saws, 560 and 550 (and 562 also) generators has diameter 59mm, same thread distance also, the white is the 550....

I don't know how much the price difference are in US between those two generators, but in Norway them 560/562 generators are far more pricey compared against the 550 generator.
Btw, 346 generator is also one bolt on solution, it's just to make a tad longer cable and connection points.

Did some one literally use that as a boat anchor?

 

[beaglebriar]

Aftermarket 041 carb that wouldn't return to idle.

Throttle plate before and after...idles mucho better now...

 

[Cut4fun]

got something to compare to my 505

see if that 1mm stroke is worth it.

 

[Tor R]

Waiting for the sealant to cure before I can do p&v test.


This one is up next, 140$ saw, low hour 353, will get a good cleaning and one new partition wall + clamp. I thought to flip her out fast, but, maybe it's time to start to build up one collection of summer saws?

 

[a. palmer jr.]

Two regular saws with regular problems, Stihl 032AV with no spark and Dolmar 510 with no compression.
