Does anyone know anything about these saws?

[myhubbyluvssaws]

Trying to figure out what year either of these saws are from. I am looking for older saws and cam across these but dont know anything about them. One is an Eager Beaver and the other is a Ward. Do you know who made them?

The Eager Beaver is a Mculloch- or however it's spelled. Usually called a Mac.

Whats the model # on the Wards saw? they used a 130+cc West bend on their big saw. It is the same motor Jerry is using on his scratch built mill and it's is every bit as much a monster saw as an 090.

The WARDS saw I have is a Model 82010 that uses a 134cc West Bend motor. Another model they has was the Model 61010 and it used a 100cc motor. They are a cream/gold color scheme.

Here is what mine looks like. It's the Model 82010

Either one would make a good saw for milling. Plenty of HP and torque. Parts are easy to get for the 820 model except clutch drums. If you have a drum, treat it like it's made of gold. If it's worn, it can be adapted with an Oregon Power Mate Sprocket System by someone who can silver braze using a mandrel to align the pieces. I have one on my Wards saw and on my mill.

I WANT ONE! Iv never seen a saw like this (the Ward) and my dad has been in the logging buisness for 20 some years.. never heard of it
Iv heard of the eager beavers good saws... after you get them started =]
I have a Mac 10-10 my x-gfs dad gave me.. it sat for 5 years i cleaned out the old gas and the carburetor and it started right up! McCulloch are great saws!

Glad you like the saw. I just used it this past week cutting up a Black Oak tree that broke off a 28" limb. So my 30" bar just made it. My friend timed the cut on the log and it cut the 28" piece in just about a minute. It has plenty of HP. Lot of fun!
