Since echo twins were mentioned. This is my runner i got off municibid a few years ago. Guy gave me all the manuals/paperwork with it. Said they hardly ever used it, too heavy and gutless lol. Can't remember exactly what I paid for it, but it was under $200.00. The other one I paid substantially more for, and ended up needing a coil. Basically turned into a parts saw at that point.
I'd say it's the most obtainable of any twin cylinder saws. I'd love to have a solo twin in my collection, but I'm either too late, or too cheap to buy one when I find it. Wouldn't say no to a wankle powered yanmar or sacs kms, but they are even harder to find then the twins.

Picked up a PowerMac 605-20AV over the weekend for $30. Needed a pull cord, a tune, and a good wash but it's decent otherwise. An absolute brick of a saw considering the displacement and power. I didn't weigh it but it feels heavier than my 462...
 
Wondered if any eBay surfers have seen this? Listed as a vintage porcelain sign. It was listed earlier but there is a reserve on it. A few days ago, the reserve was not met and bidding was up to $101.00 with 11 bids from 5 bidders. It has been reposted and has one bid currently.
However, reading the description I was very confused. 6 inches in circumference (which they have in all caps). That would make it about the size of a silver dollar or small button. I gotta ask, has anyone else seen this?

I know heimannm has a lot of McCulloch Chain Saws, as well as myself, I was wondering if anybody else has a few McCullochs in their collection of Chain Saws, and are they for work, or for display. Thanks for your input. Bruce.
Have a Promac 1010, which I need a muffler for… it is a work saw. Stout and heavy 50cc

I've got a muffler that I've heat treated and buffed out. Was planning to hit it with heat resistant grill paint and put it up for sale. Haven't gotten around to painting it. I also have a couple which haven't been touched.

Is it the rarer grey version?
Yep its grey, fellow before me had a shoelace as a pull cord with a stick as a handle lol. Its in surprisingly nice shape and the P&C look pretty nice. Definitely has been run rich its whole life as the exhaust is gummy as anything. Still needs a proper clean up but I was planning on getting it running and cutting nice and then sending it off to another home.

I noticed this listing yesterday. Thought I remembered seeing it, before that must've been the first go-around I was remembering.

Strikes me as odd that someone would go through the trouble to measure circumference rather than diameter. FWIW, I'm not bidding. Recently got a 12" (diameter) reproduction aluminum one.
 
Hey guys, I'm looking for the early large bar plates for my 450 - anyone out there have some "laying around"?

Also considering switching it over to use the later slimline 3/8 .050 bars - I've read some information on doing this (adding spacers, sprocket, etc.) but I'm not 100% clear on what would be necessary. Looking for expert advice. Please chime in :)
 
Looking for some identification help. I can make out the tag on the 380, but the others are covered up. This is the only picture I have unfortunately. IMG_7150.jpeg
 
Put a new lock plate on this evening with a tiny smear of grease to help the bolt heads not grab so much. Right (clutch side) snugged up nice, but the left one started to twist the lock plate as I was getting it pretty tight, so I stopped there and flattened down the plate a bit. Gaskets and carb spacer line up so it’s not twisted too much, but I would like to have gotten it tighter still. Might get the carb hooked up tomorrow and test run it if I have time.
 
Mark hooked me up with a long missing muffler cover for my 450, got that checked off the list, then pulled the carb and off and replaced the idle governor Spring that was damaged. The saw fired up - I need to adjust the idle, that will be tomorrow's job. Good times!

The RH start top center is a 10-10, next to it is a D-30 or D-36.

The other two large frame saws are 1-41/1-42/1-43 or perhaps a 200.
