I'll be watching this one with interest.

 

[jackjcc]

I have a lot going on, so it will be a few days before I can start getting into it.

LOL, I can relate so much that it isn't even funny...

Wonder how much for a 660?

Unless something changed from a month or so ago, for a single saw add $100 to the current price to cover shipping.

Unboxing!! I'm pointing out what I think sucks, if it looks fine I moved on. I'll come back to things as the build goes.

Air filter...throw it away, mine came pre cut. I'll email them about this.

Stihl really made a muffler like this? I've seen this style on poulans, exhaust port is out the back and the deflector redirects it back out front. Not a fan of it being stuck together.

Paint chips all over the case halves.

3/8 rim drive, I like this.

Woodruff key is in a plastic bag, not losing it like some guys...

The chamfer is crap on some ports and the floor of the intake is sharp as a knife. Couldn't get a good pic of that though.

Lots of pieces and I've never worked on a 361, so I'll figure out what I'm missing as I go.

Having handled real stihl cranks/piston/cylinder it's hard to not notice how cheap this all feels. Don't care though, it's going together as is, if it dies it dies. Why? I think we have a come up with a bunch of ways to boost the reliability, I wanna see how reliable they are stock.

I'm kinda wondering about ordering saw parts from China, seems awfully slow shipping of late. I've got some I've been waiting on for a few weeks now, maybe I'll get them when I lose interest..

 

[wood4heat]

So is this like a 361 kit assembled fromChinese knock off parts?

Yes, it's all parts needed to build the saw bought in one kit from huztle.

At least when build these saws you get to fix any quality issues as you go.

Do you have to order the parts individually or is an actual complete kit?

 

[PaladinMan187]

Subbed. Interested to see how this works.

It's a whole kit, don't think it has a bar and chain or maybe it does. They also have other saws like a 372 Husqvarna and a couple of more Stihls.

It's power head only. The husky kit is the 365, but you can bump it to 372 by buying an additional cylinder kit.

This should be good. I think i missed somewhere how much the kit costs.
