History of Bow Saws

[Modifiedmark]

Yes, I have another Bow bar the came like that, So made this one the same.
The adjuster was missing on this one.

Ah I thought so, just checking as I never seen Poulan use one like that on these. Looks like it would work better then the originals that bolt on the side.

These are just gorgeous saws. Never ran one, but they are beautiful to see.

Glad that some of you guys are into restoring and collecting them for others to see.

How about doing a step-by-step thread, with lots of photos, so the rest of us can see how you get them so smooth and shiny?

Thanks Rick.
There is a guy from a Chainsaw collectors Forum that has made lots of old chainsaw decals.
He also makes rare carb kits too.

Picked up this Poulan 5400 last month and added a bow off an old 245 to it.

Are you saying that 'nothing finishes a package like a bow'?

Cliff,

The work you do on these saws is absolutely amazing. Taking a piece of often forgotten equipment, and turning it back to better than original glory. Well done.
