Sold Ported NE 346XP

[mainewoods]

Reluctantly, I am selling my Masterminded NE 346xp. I will not be able to cut wood for some time due to an injury and I can't see it sitting here not being used, it's too good of a saw. I have about 8 tanks of gas through it since it was ported by Mastermind, and it seems to get stronger every time I use it. Starts on 2 or 3 pulls cold, and 1 pull warm every time. It was upgraded to the metal intake clamp, and muffler modded. Comes with a new 16" SugiHara tough tip bar, but I don't have a chain for it good enough to include. Also comes with a new ( made by Oregon ) 18" bar and a very good chain. Saw is a .325 pitch set up. I have a new 8 pin rim, which I never got around to putting on, and a dozen new CJ7Y Champion plugs to go with it also. Randy really did a nice job on this saw and it is a real screamer. It has run flawlessly since I've had it. I am asking $425 shipped in the US. If someone is looking for a professionally ported and modded 346, by one of the best porters on AS, here is a very nice one. It cuts like a 60cc saw.

I just sent you a pm.

I'm second in line, and I already own one of Randy's 346's.

 

[mainewoods]

Murph, Ive had 4 responses already, you are #3 on the list.

 

[MacLaren]

If it counts for anything I'll give you the full price. I don't need to haggle.

 

[mainewoods]

There isn't any haggling- the first guy is trying to send a paypal gift. I really appreciate all the responses and your patience. I will let everyone know as soon as I know.

Wow what a great saw and price!

 

[fin460]

I thought I recognized that sugi bar, do you still have anymore of those bars, I have a couple like it in 3/8

 

[mainewoods]

Thank you all for your interest, and again for your patience. The saw is sold.

 

[Raganr]

Damn. Bummed I missed this deal.

 

[mainewoods]

I still have 2 of the sugi's left. They are 16" -.325.

 

[woodchipper95]

This is not legal, it cant be!!! Will those sugi's fit a 545?

 

[mainewoods]

I am not sure, they are NOS. They fit on the 346 but the link count isn't the standard 66DL. I wish someone knew the correct count for that bar, they are well made.

 

[fin460]

I'm running 65dl on my 3/8 bar, I'm sure the .325 bar is just as odd.

66 DL is a few links too short for the .325 -16" on a 350 and a 346. Maybe a 68 or 69 dl in order to slip the chain on over the rim and adjust tension. The bar fits fine, it's just that the standard 66DL chain is too short. The seller stated the bars were 66 DL
