I can drill and tap. I can't weld. I don't personally know anyone whom is any good at welding. Guys whom do it for a living around here want $90 an hour with a minimum of 1 hour. Maybe I will have to learn to weld this winter :msp_wink: got most every other trade.
 
I would hone it and polish the piston and go for the weld and retap job, run it , Ive seen alot of P&Cs still going in the woods after a clean up that looked bad, yours looks great in comparison:)
 
I can weld those holes in and drill/tap for a muffler. The cylinder will clean up and you should be able to buff out the piston since the ring lands don't look messed up.

I think that is the plan for this one. As few P&C's there are out there, I'd feel obligated to get this one back even if it doesn't go back on this saw.

:rock: You rock my friend. PM me your addy and it will be on its way tomorrow.
 
Have my 2100 back on the road now and will be testing at Buladelah chainsaw races this coming weekend. have some pictures that have turned out a little blurry for some reason. Will get them on soon how ever to show my little precious.
 
Pictures of my 2100. As can be seen I have attached a Walbro carby of a 394 which bolts straight up to the emulsion block of the 2100. I have had to make my own throttle lever to accommodate the different carby. no choke means a little fuel feeding required. Having trouble currently with on/off switch not stopping the saw. need to block off air inlet to stop it, hence no filter at this stage. Saw will have original flat air filter and covers when switch sorted.

Sooooooo.............Who lives close to Redding, CA :biggrinbounce2:
I got friends there, that can go get it if needed. I agree fix that cylinder! You are in good hands indeed, wise move, as for the cost, it would go for that or more in just parts. Big fella nice saw, races eh? Get em! Andy I love that, and nope even the kill switch wont kill em part! So true. They broke the mold on that saw.
