Hi mike !!

The 024 runs, cuts and oils the chain.
THANKS Mo.Jim!!!

Jim tells me the bar/chain fits the 290's. It will serve for test purposes for the time being.

Jim donated a spur/drum and bar adjuster to the cause. I don't know what I'd do without him. Parts and wise council.

Do you still need a bar for the 024. I would have to look tomorrow but I should have a decent one.

No. It's the MS290's that is needing bar/chains. The one off the 024 will serve for test cut purposes until I get the pile sorted. Then I can pick up what I need from Jeff's Small Engines.

The 024 turned out to be a fine runner/cutter BTW! Looks like sin, but. Pic later maybe.

The first 290 out of the pile runs great!



The 16" from the 024 is a tad short for him.

I put tags on them to keep track of their performance and hurts.
Later becomes price tag! LOL

Hey guys, I just found out I have to work on the 24th, so I'm not gonna make the charity cut. Asked the boss, and he was like, oh yeah, the next mandatory Saturday is the 24th. Great. :/

Hmmm, really? If it becomes a price tag on the 024 I'd like a shot at it if it isn't spoken for. I have 2 but I need at least 3, maybe 5. Maybe 10....

Drug the little Husky 142 out of the pile. Only thing broke on it is the fuel cap is cracked and the chain brake/ cover is AWOL. Pumps 150 and runs on a prime.
