I got a room in the back of my shop where most of them hang out. Got a few special to me ones on a shelf in the office of the shop. I gotta pretty good sized shop, 42x50.

I got crazy grabbing all I could awhile back, learned to regret that. I wont hardly take those super 2's mini macs and such unless there part of a bunch of saws, then I give or throw them away.

Picked up some parts saws the other day and there was a mini mac laying there. I threw it in the dumster that was there and brought home the rest.

Mostly just collecting Poulans now along with some Swedish saws. Quality over quanity....

You will enjoy practicing on the super 2's for a little while though. :cheers:
 
42x50????

am i doing something wrong here??

thanks
 
No need in denying it! LOL

Truthfully, I don't know how many I have, I would have to go count them again.

Rough guess is 70 runners?

You're about 20 ahead of me but I'm guessing you have a lot more room than I have. I've added some shelves this summer but they're full already. I don't dumpster the Super 2s however. They aren't bad for cutting small limbs on downed trees and they're easy to handle.

No problem I'll send everyone of those POS super 2's to you then. Took quite awhile last time to give them away with them having to pay the shipping.

There are Poulan Micros for me, 10x better then those little Homelite XL's and Mini macs.

Nothing wrong with the Poulan Micros. I have several of them too. Most of my Homelite Super 2s end up on ebay. You really don't have to give them away, people pay for them there. A clean one will easily bring $25 or more. But if you insist on giving them away...

Well by the time you put a carb kit in them, replace the crumbling foam air filter, a couple duckbill valves and fuel lines, you aint making much at $25.

You just pay the freight and I'll send any I get to you.

I saw a decent Poulan micro at the flea market Sunday go for $20. I would have bought it but I have several of the Craftsman versions of it. I ended up buying a running Pro Mac 55 with a 24" bar and chain for $20, and a Homelite XL12 for $10. I can probably sell them locally and do pretty well if I don't decide just to add them to the collection.
I'm really not trying to get rich selling chainsaws, I'm retired and just doing this to have something to do and maybe make a little bit of money. As long as I don't lose money on this "hobby" I'll be all right.
