Ready to head north...

Good afternoon. Been really busy here, had a few pages to read to get caught up. Hope all is well with everybody.

Matt, what is that off of and what kind of chain?

Levi's John Deere that Randy built...
3/8 square filed chain...

So will Levi be able to prove "Nothing Runs Like A Deere"? Inquiring minds what to know. Tune in next week to find out, or is the week after???.

It's a very strong running saw...
But ... It is just a work saw..
We'll see...

Piston w/rings arrived this am so now the Jonnyred is a runner again.

Sod did the Echo 300EVL. It needs a new sprocket/drum but someone must have lost the L.H. metric nut as it has an off the wall job brazed on. Damn farm fix.

Good thing we have an acetylene outfit...........................

 

[cobey]

You better hope the coil is good on the 3000, because ole Jim doesn't have any extras. I need 1 or 4 myself.

the little 300evl's are cute

sounds like everyone had a good day.

[gritz]

Hey, just dropping a line to intrduce myself. I'm in the Liberty, MO area and don't really know many saw fanatics close. I mainly mess around with eh 1121 series Stihls (026 primarily) and anything that comes across my bench on Saturdays. (Can't work on chainsaws for a living, yet. Still have a day and sometimes into the night job through the week). Take care.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

gritz welcome I live on the other side of the state line in Tonganoxie Ks. there are several other's within an hour of you.

 

[Oliver1655]

Welcome Gritz

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Hey John.

 

[67L36Driver]

Liberty to Joetown is 45-50 minutes. Mo.Jim is just 7 miles south of town.

Try lunch at Steak and Shake or visit the Corner Cafe west end of Liberty.

 

[67L36Driver]

I think I'll just fire up the Echo and hold a file to the brazed area. Just like a lathe.

 

[Homelite410]

Welcome gritz! I'm from Iowa but they all still put up with me! Great group of guys on this thread!

More like on idle speed using my Dremmel with a stone counter-rotating.

Heat to melt the braze would likely kill the crank seal.

 

[67L36Driver]

Not to mention the danger of burning down the saw plus the garage and the house from the gas fumes......................
