I finished the maple with the 346. Unfortunately on big wood, it burns my left hand. :(

Cuts decent. Drools oil. :(

Almost every saw I have is sick. (and out of chains.) :(

I really need to retire. :)
 
The 372 breathes life again, like the trooper that it is.

Mechanic error. Just prior to the GTG ( that would be Freehand's) someone put on a piston and jug. seems it came loose. Warranty.

The stock 757 runs well, and the rest are average. :)

Never finished working on the slingered 757. Or the 2100s, or the 3120. or the other 346s, or the 034s, or the 357s, or the 610, or the other lay arounds.


Tarry on.

:)

Matt and others want to take on a project each? I know some about the 034 I would take on one or two of those. :rock:

I don't have but one saw on the bench a 066 I'm going to go thru, I put that project on hold till I purchase the pipe software and learn how to use it. :hmm3grin2orange:
 
757... Would that be a Shindaiwa? I have one those that is dead too. Needs a piston, cylinder, and TLC.

Any general advice specific to Shinny?

Yup... They got no business at a tree service company...
Just send it to me...
Too quirky for that kind of use...
Sorta like a BMW...

I need a pipe too stephen... Think 50 cc...
Other than that, I can offer no help whatsoever...
 
Speaking of pipes, it's time to start bugging Steve for one of those teakettle pipes……..Gotta ms 200 it'd look real good on…….:big_smile:

I have had my eye out for one of those as well. :msp_biggrin:

My source traded the rest of the pipes that he had to a guy in California that's doing a radical mod on a couple of his GoPeds. He says one of them should top out at a little over 50 MPH:msp_scared: I think he's got a death wish.

Believe it or not, my pipe would probably be too small for a MS200. It matches the little XL specs almost right on the nose.

There's a kart racer at work that said he'd loan me a slider pipe and an extrude-honed Walbro to try on one if my 100cc saws. He's pretty good at making promises and not carrying through with them though so I'm not going to hold my breath. I'd like to get one of the Parilla's that he changed out when he went to water-cooled engines.:rock:

It occurs to me that you may be afflicted by CAD...Chainsaw Acquisition Disorder.


I too am plagued by a similar problem: Chainsaw Abuse Dystrophy.
In the end, it's going to get all my saws and make them useless. It's only a matter of time.:(

I need the slinger'd 757... I think I know what's wrong with it...
Who has it?, and will you trust me with it???
:hmm3grin2orange:

I hear tell it was a good runner, but I've never got to run it...:msp_unsure:
 
I know that there have been some tall tales told here. And I have not be short of being involved.

However, here is one you'll find hard to believe:

I took down about 9 70-80 feet tall trees today. All but two were dead. In one of the live ones, (I had seen it) was a widowmaker.

When the tree started to go, I forgot about the limb, (a 4 or 5 incher) and it pegged me in the top of the head.

Now here is the hard to believe part: I was wearing a hardhat. :msp_scared: No perceivable damage. I may be a little more sore tomorrow, but none the worse for wear.

Now the part you might believe: I didn't wear a hardhat the entire rest of the day.



Tarry on.
 
Clarification:

I did wear a hardhat "some" of the rest of the day, but not the 'entire' rest of the day.

When Kenneth comes to visit, he could fetch it back to you. You know he comes to visit quite often.
