Don't consider 'flocked filters' as a "summer" filter. They're just better filtration, period. The metal screen filters offered by Jonsereds back in the day were a sorry affair. It's only a tribute to the cylinder plating that many of these saws have survived using that metal screen.
Well.....as I've said before, the 110/111/111S are 60's design saws. And although they have tons of low-end torque and are built like bomb shelters......they are slow-revving, low-rpm saws and could not compete with saws like the Husky 2100 series. The cost to make them, their weight along with the more modern competition drove them to extinction.I'm only a kid- when I started using these falling- we were at the 600 and early in the 20## family saws- so thats where my loyalties and affections lay.
Mind you, if a big old 111S shows up I might be forced to go old school.
Truth be told- small country, small population and Jonsered were never that popular here- the forests were ruled by the orange and grey bogons.
I can and SB's prove it wasnt made in 91. Your tag isnt one of the 2 champ tags used either.
My late model champ has a Gil.
Yeah, the 'experts' told me it would "only take five minutes" to file/fit the Carlton bar I bought from Bailey's on my 80. It took a damn sight more than that..... better to have found a large mount Husky bar and fiddled with that.
If you can find non-clapped-out 1100s and 2100s, grab 'em, you won't be disappointed.Oh, don't worry- once my own stash tops out at the 2094's- there are 1100 and 2100 orange saws within easy grasp.
Only reason I mentioned the 111S was because I have only ever seen one in the wild here in NZ- unicorn horn saws. Typical of the era of big heavy loud and slow- but kinda cool looking.
Does look all there and low hr. Looks a lot like mine. I hate it when they say "It ran when it was put away". If it was put away with gas in it, you have your work cut out for you. Although an original owner saw like that should have all gas lines replaced along with the crank seals, carb rebuilt, etc. Hopefully, someone isn't going to run it as is and burn it up.
Yes, it was shown in J'reds ads with 'Denny' running it with at least a 32" in 3/8". I run my 90 with a .404 32" bar.....pulls fine.
Yeah that's about as informative the "It was new once" line!!!
If it were not ,Bryce, selling that saw I would toss a$1500. bid in on it but after buying hundreds of dollars of parts from him he began to get sketchy, sending less parts than what were paid for and incorrect parts, became super self defensive if I contacted him about it and blocked me because I actually let him know he or one of his assistants messed up and forget about asking him questions, he has no time to answer.
Yep....I've heard that about Bryce too.........fortunately I've never had any problems with our transactions but haven't bought from him more than a dozen or so times...maybe 15......don't see him selling whole saws often....generally make much more parting them out. If this doesn't sell he'll probably have a bunch of 111S parts for sale in short order.
Two bids so far even with that high starting point so I guess this won't be parted out after all!!
Maybe that was the deal then; I bought some parts and had a complaint resulting in him blocking me. If it was an egregious battle or something sinister I would remember it.
