The drill bits will make bigger holes now but slowly . Size is unknown. No charge for that tip either.

I didn't drill out the holes. Just used the shanks of twodull drill bits. Only thing round and small that would fit and that I could pry on.
I meant the drills you bent would now make bigger holes.
I guess that means no more jokes you have to think about Mark. Strictly knock knock ones.
Glad you got it off. I just aquired a 306A and just like the few other older Poulan's, it performs well ahead of it's time.

I seen alot of 4000's on here lately. I do not own one yet but they seem to be real runners comparable to the 395' I have. Congrats on the saw and who knows there might be one right around the corner for me.
That's what she said. There's a joke for you.
Speaking of 4000 Poulans. I got the chance to run Mike's "special" 4000 yesterday. If all 4000's ran like that one, they would be impossible to find. :msp_biggrin:
Of course most of the Moparmans saws are special. Just ask Brad.
Gregg,

Gregg,
I couldn't help myself yesterday and Cowroy made me a offer I couldn't refuse.
It's brand new boys.

Whoops, don't pay any attention to that new partially stripped 3700 in the corner of that second picture.....
LOL, That reminds me Mark. Justin (cowroy) had us both stumped for a few minutes, when we tried to remove a piston from what we thought was a 3700. We couldn't figure why the piston had clips on it, and I had to stretch the tool slightly to get it over the piston. Turns out it was a 4200! LOL. And neither of us had had any beer, up till then.

Gregg,
Even worse, it was a 5200
. I am still learning :msp_biggrin:

If you've got your hands on a 5200 you're learning pretty well!
I've been using two 3/16" drill bit shanks chucked up on 1 1/16" centers in my bench vise. Hold the clutch, turn the saw.
Two 3/8" square chunks of wood in the exhaust port. I've bitten off too much rope etc.

Yeah, but the flywheel has been off the saw since the get go. Even if it was on....don't know if I'd be comfortable with that. Your essentially tightening the FW nut. I've seen those threads/nuts get buggered up quick from running them down too tight.
otay, gonna try with the pix. like i already said i really like this saw. doesn't feel heavy when i'm using it. but when i pick it up in the shop it does. go figure. note the homemade upper handle bracket. the sxl cover works great, just has that one hole at the back top, so? btw, i got a chance to make a bar adapter, easy peasy; no pix though, didn't feel like taking the cover off.
so mark, you needing any parts for that 306a? i've got a partial carcass with some parts. we still need pix.
What's with all the 3/8" wire rope?
I'm needing a 306A type flywheel cover for the Dayton if anyone has an extra.
And a wrap handle. Either style is fine (high or low) as I have small hands.
