The 084 gets a little workout once in a while. Hell, i might let ole Stumpy work on it a little. Him being all famous and such.:D

We all knew it was going to happen, won't be long before he won't even build saws for AROKMO members. :laugh:

Waitin on the rings & seals to git here, I should waited to start the thread till I git everything in but I couldn't wait. Workin on a 088 in the mean time. Plus gittin other customers machines done in the shop. As soon as I make more headway I'll post it.

Actually I don't have regular tv. Those government approved converter boxes didn't last worth a darn. So we just watch movies fer entertainment. We're plannin on gittin satalite set up before too long:clap:

Thanks fer the concern on the saw.

If you do you'll have to give the internet a try with them.
 
maybe we could drag the logs over to the side of the watering trough for bucking... you know set up some type of log plume in the backyard... :D

Stump told me he's busy away from the 'net till Tues.
 
Sorry fellas. I knew I shouldn't have started this thread till I got the whole thing done.

The Wife & I took our two youngest boys to Branson yesterday, stayed the night, then went to the Wild Animal Safari in Strafford. It was nice to git away fer a bit, but still worried about all the things I need to git done in the shop.

I need to finnish John T's 088 up before I can resume this 290 project. After the 290 I gots a 576xp to git done. Then possibly be buildin a 372xp outta my parts stash fer a member here. Hopefully the saws keep commin in.:rock:

Don't worry I'll git right back on it. I'm excited to see if what I done to this 290 will show the gains that I want. Who knows, it may not even pull the chain in butter:msp_confused:
 
It runs!!!:rock: I'll post the rest of the pics ASAP. Been real busy lately. Gonna put a couple of tanks through it the make some test cuts to record the times. Sorry fer the delay. I'll do better on the next build thread I do.:msp_wink:

Hey stump! Don't use ultra on them first couple tanks... (-;
 
I've already run a tank full of Lucas simi-synthetic through it ( all I had mixed at the time). I plan on gittin some non syn to break it in with. Hows the 372 handlein the heat??

The hot weather just makes madder... It's wearin a 20" bar now and laughs at it. Runs cooler than the little Stihl. (-:
