Pioneer chainsaws

Tim, did you try contacting Jeff,( P62)? ..I know he was parting out several big frame P series saws a while back.

Thanks Jerry, but it was another soul looking for the carb.

Sorry Tim. I read the whole page quickly this morning and moved on, then remembered Jeff had parts but got the wrong poster mixed up with what was being looked for. Guess it was KZ1000 that was looking for handles.

I appreciate any tip info Jerry. No need to be sorry.

I was wondering why you were calling me Tim, went and checked my birth certificate just to be sure. I looked up p62 and he hasn't been on in awhile, I'll leave him a note. Thanks

Thanks Tim.
I appreciate the offer Paul, someone that can actually use the clutch will pipe up.

Early 1971 I got to Luke, 73 got orders for SE Asia (Thailand), 74 returned to Luke until 79, then to NM for 6 years. The summers were always hard but were becoming brutal in Phoenix when we left.
Most of my career was second shift... Work until midnight, get home, eat something, relax for a few minutes and the next thing you know it's 04:00. Off to bed and sleep until noon. I hear what you say.
I worked every model of USAF F-4 Phantom (bent wing bug sucker) ever made, a few Navy and Marine models too. If I could, I'd do it over!
Again thanks for the offer.
Lou

Finally dug this up. In Charleston during 4th of July visiting our sailor.

Man does that dredge up some good memories...
I was an Avionics Instrument Systems Technician... Find an image of in instrument panel. 80%± of what you see was mine. There were also instruments on the pedestal panel, left front sub panel, a few scattered on the consoles, and the rear instrument panel.
We were responsible for the indicator, the sensing elements that drove it, and the interconnecting wiring. We had stuff mounted nose to tail and wingtip to wingtip.
On the F-4C (Luke) the fuel quantity system was what caused me the most headaches. When I returned from SE Asia (F-4Ds, Es, and RFs) I was an E5 (SSgt) and worked almost solely repeat/recurring malfunctions (others had tried and couldn't/didn't repair).
Germany (85 - 88) F-4Es and Gs. I was the Specialist Flight Chief, had 140+ personnel working for me in 14 different specialties (F-4s and F-16s).
Need the accuracy of an indicating system checked? If you have the certified test equipment, I'm your man.

In the gaps C130As, AT38Bs (flew one of these once for a very short period from the rear seat) and KC135s.

I second that, you are why we exist.

I second that, you are why we exist.

Chainsawr has a lower handle for a p-50 that should work for your p-51 for 17 bucks right now.

 

[kz1000]

I'll check it out, thanks!

 

[kz1000]

The trigger handle bare is $40 and $18 for the front, if I needed the saw it might be a deal, I think I'll look awhile. Thanks

 

[p61 western]

Has anyone had any trouble with a pioneer laminated sprocket nose bar? I bought one and 30 minutes of cutting and the tip froze.

Just finished this saw . It was a fun project

Nice Joe.

 

[pioneerguy600]

Very nice work as always Joe. Looks better than new.

 

[kz1000]

Now lets get that sucker covered in saw dust and oil

Yep now it's ready to work.

 

[P62]

Hello fellow
I am still here, haven't found a lot of Pioneer stuff lately.
Still have a bunch of extra parts if anyone is in need.
Joe, That is a nice factory fresh Pioneer P42.
looks like it came out of the Pioneer factory on Park St N
AKA your house

 

[kz1000]

Just sold my p52 builder to a member, I'm down to a few parts and a running P40 that I really don't need.

 

[fossil]

I only need one saw but I don't let stuff like that get in my way plus I need a bunch of back up units.
