The awesome series of Poulan saws known as the, 3400, 3700, 3800, 4000, 395 and I believe there might be one or two more that use that diaphragm for the oiler.

Just a thought... Laser cutting and etching is getting sorta common in places.
water jetting seems it might have some setup matters that (I'm totally guessing here)
might be cumbersome to work with for this stock.
but the laser stuff looks interesting nowdays.
you might find a local hobbiest group ("Hackerspace") that could do a scan of diaph
and turn the photons loose, to good effect.
these guys are already working in wood cutting and other things that might surprise you.
and they're even building some of the rig itself from wood.
Some links to my favorite "how to ...." site.
Just watch the comments sections, They DON'T filter language nearly as much as Arboristsite does
so be advised if you web surf from a place where that would matter.

I'll bet that homemade, laser powered stencil cutter would knock these out easily.

That'd be great Mark. Would you please scan the XXV series diaphragm while you're at it? Some of my 'share' of the material will certainly go towards XXV diaphragms...
Don't listen to the fellow from Wheatfield, :tongue2: the Mac is good Craigslist fodder. Open up the muffler, more and bigger holes.
Typical broken oil tank neck. Check Overtrained, he likes 'em and should have leftovers.
Really, I had some of those and threw them away. Who would have thunk someone would actually pay even a dollar for one.

I sold three of those as good runners last fall for 40 each on Craigslist.
parallels, gage rods radius gizzies and lots of other cool stuff........ don't often find this stuff at a yard sale...

Nice score on the tools, especially the bore mics.
Heck that's enough to get a good running 3700 right there. Way to go.

Anybody have a lead on rings? any help is much appreciated.
Oh and I forgot to mention, the starter rope is held in with what looks like the filed down head of a nail. i melt the end, stick it in....and it rips out everytime.
Oh, and what would you guys use to seal the gas tank? the sealent i have isnt rated for gasoline.

Mark what I do is hold a small finishing nail with a pair of pliers and heat it with a torch. I then push it through the starter cord about 1/4" from the end. Let it cool a tad and then push it the rest of the way through until the head seats against the cord. Then cut off the end of the nail leaving about 1/8" sticking out of the cord. Pull the cord through the hole until the nail is seated, with the head facing up.

The two boxes alone probably wouldn't be had for $500. They ain't cheap. I got a top box like that for $10 at a flea market. A guy ahead of me was trying to beat him down to 5. I didn't argue

Sometimes it's best NOT to look a gift horse in the mouth..........just pay the price and be thankful you got it for that....

Even a thrifty and frugal guy like me understands that.
Got couple of them. Would be nice to have a solution sitting in the file. Hey fossil count me in if youre still counting. I can send $$ or money order just say where and how much
