Big thank you to Carl for the strunk!! I think workshop is having a good time on Doug's bad ass machines!
Post pictures of the Sturnk when you get him going. I'll pass them on to Allen and John, the grandsons of the man who originally owned/ran it. Billy Crawford of rural Albany, Mo.. Allen got the little Pioneer P-20 going that was his 'limber'.
I spent a lot of time deer hunting on their farm up there years ago.

Good morning Carl,Steve
Morning everybody. Hope everybody has a great day. I went outside this morning, I could hear a buzz from the north and it was raining saw chips. Wonder where that is coming from? Carry on

That's purdy right there. Very nice job indeed.
Over 12 hours since last post. Iowa take it out of you guys? Is there a party somewhere and I didn't get invited?
My boy is standing up with Mom holding his hands. 3 days shy of 3 months. That's the news from my world....
My neighbor is looking for a saw. I have a new 361 to sell, but it is likely a built more saw than he wants. Any ideas? If I had an extra 026, I'd sell him that. He has an MS 170 that he has used for 8-10 years, and the oil pup went out on it. Cheap saw lasted him well, but I don't want to mess with trying to work on it.
Hope you guys are doing well!

That looks like it could be damn handy!!! I'd still rather have a 50-75hp tractor with a grapple bucket, but that could be a God-send at times... What's it powered by?

Congrats on the boy! I don't know why we get in a rush for them to walk and talk. As soon as they start all they do is get into EVERYTHING and make noise non stop.
As far as the saw, I'd recommend whatever brand has the best dealer. If that isn't a concern, then I'd lean toward one of the newer Jonsereds. I've ran them and their handling is a step above everyone else (IMHO) right now and they have good power.

Howdy, folks! Been a while since I frequented this one, sorry!
Anyway, gonna be in the Kansas city, mo area on the weekend of 14th & 15th of June, wondering if there's anyone lives by that area I might be able to swing in & say hi to while I'm there. not sure how much time I'll have (going to a navy retirement shindig) but figured I'd ask!

John KVI has a good selection of non stihl. Dolmar, jonsereds and Husky's. They have been good to deal with, also Bishop's at Perry a little farther but have a bigger selection than KvI.

I believe its 38 HP Kubota diesel with 18gpm hyd pump.
It is no slouch at all.

We are 35 miles west of Cameron, Mo. if you are coming down I-35 and two miles west of I-29 if passing thur St. Joseph. Mo. Jim is south of me on hwy 59.
Saw cranks welcome to stop by any time. Call ahead so we can put the pot on. 816-294-Three Zero Two Two.
Help! Jim!
Pulled the jug on the J-Red 670. Found the ring intact and no clue why the compression went to nearly zero. End gap is .012" on the ring supplied with the piston. Free in the groove. Checked the ring I got the other day off evilbay and it is .007-.008".
Machine is possesed by a devil. It don't like me.
I'll measure the width, face to back to see if they are different. Dirt on the ring land? Not finding any.
Cylinder may be way out of round. No way to measure it.

To top off the problem above, I picked up two loops of 3/8 LP x 56 drivers for my Deere 15 and the 010AV when John was here. Now I find the Stihl bar is marked 55 drivers. Rats!

Well I was hoping to get some wood in today (as I'm about 14 cords behind right now)... Instead the kids wanted to ride bikes and jog own the road about 2.5 miles... I still need wood, but I couldn't turn down spending some time with the babies... I still may take down an nice little multi-stem 35-40' Hack today. Afternoon everyone!!!
