Sold my 028 this evening. Probably undersold it a bit, but I wanted it gone. Took a little time to mess with the craftsman 1.9. I also put together another Frankensaw. It's an 026 with a 44.7mm cylinder and piston for a 260. Good day overall.

Hay, I'm still alive just busy, round hay, quilt shows, moving our quilt shop to a bigger building. I haven't read a post in months PM if anything is needed from me, it comes to my email.

I got a text from Wiggs and that reminded me of this place, I am going to KY GTG.
You know, we could pick up Don on the way through... We gotta travel the whole length of highway 60...
And stuff...
 
Morning all, just had a little shower here, on my second cup and waiting for the caffeine to kick in.
Carl I was having the same thought last night about the HL carbs. I have one of the big recips buried out in the shed, need to check out the air filter setup.

Cylinder and piston from a Wright Rebel recip. on evilbay now. 2.5" bore. Think it is the same as a C-70?

Just got back from wedding & reception. Son got married second time.

Worn out. Night all.

Oh, and got the Lombard 68 pulling chain. See in the morning if it will cut. Made my own clutch drum bushing using the drill press. Too poor for a lathe.

We got it done! All except the poly. Stopped by and hung out with matt and his gang for a minute. Tell Lisa those pickles were the bomb. My wide make some rocking turkey breast so I threw together a sandwich. Let me know if that carb won't workout I'll find something else. We found like a hundred carbs the other day!

I got zero wood split today like I planned. Football game lasted til 12:30 then I got a call from a friend who was taking down a pin oak. He asked me if I wanted the wood. Of course. Now I am further behind on my splitting. Here are a couple pics of my plunder:

Those big rounds give me a hernia. We noodled the last few. I drank 2 gallons of water in 4 hrs. I went home and changed to meet my wife for dinner. She got off at 8:00. When I got back in my truck, my dry clothes got soaked from all the sweat I deposited earlier. Good night everybody.
 
Chad, it is always a pleasure to see your work!

Thomas, I would have noodled the bigger pieces before loading them. There is a lot of weight in those larger rounds. Even with the log lift on the splitter, I had Stephen noodle anything over 24" at the Nixa cut last spring. Makes it so much easier to handle.

Isn't the Rebel just 74cc?

Morning all, just had a little shower here and more in the forcast. Just looking at those big oak rounds makes my hemorrhoids bloom, plus the ole back isn't up to it anymore.
Carl there is another C70 on the bay that's selling tomorrow, supposed to be a runner. I have it on my watch list, but saw funds are not good right now.:(

Same here. As far as Barbara knows all I spent on the C-70 is "a lot". She be raisin' a stink if I 'fessed up.

I could likely get this one to run but it would be a crime to run it with the mains in the horrible condition they are in. Same as or worse than 'Fat Alice' was.
