[VinceGU05]

any one got some suggestions for chain breakers and spinners?

 

[Stihlman441]

how are those 661's performing andrew? smashing the 660's out of the park?

They haven't had much use due to me being away for 2 1/2 months but ramping up the wood cutting at the moment

Some people call it a baffle, but I don't think it is. It is in no way restrictive.

It appears to me that it is for harmonics/resonance but I'm no expert on that and I could be totally wrong.

It been reported that the saw performs better with it than without it.

in your photo the bit you are calling a baffe dose not look like any baffe iv ever seen but to me it dose look like a spimplified resonator the shape and size seems to be about the right size to bounce the fule and air mix back in to the motor if you remove that you may loose top end hp.

That's exactly what it looks like to me.

I've got a small one that you stick a spanner on one end to turn it. I carry it when I go trail bike riding. It's only just strong enough to punch the pins on my bike chain but will do a chainsaw chain easy as. I've used it often.

Will have to dig it out. Will take a pic for you tomorrow.

Lol I got lured over to the other dark side and bought a husky

262xp

There s nothing ''Dark'' about owning a Husqvarna, they are nice and shiny when new just like a Stihl.
Just pull that chord thingy a couple times, you will be amaized with the response of that saw.

Plug is cheaper than an engine

Plug looks good to me.

I bought from Noble Park MowerPower couple of years back. ( The punches on the breaker will blunt off after a while but are replaceable. )
Chain breaker and a spinner, same as pictured in this ad. He probably still sells them w/o the chain.

They are super cheap Jimbo, how do you get an account, it only has US for particulars when you start to set one up. ?

I'd get a couple of 25" 404's x .063.

 

[Creeker]

I had another look thru his site, has them separate round $145 all up.

Mine works well, rolls the joiner rivets over very nicely.

So, I've been mucking around with this hydro water transfer printing abit, and due to inclimate weather and lack of better things to do, I did my 381 and 661. The first is real tree, worked well. Then I remembered why saw are orange... So the 661 I did blaze camo.

Looks cool.

If I did my Stihls in camo I would dead set lose them in no time.

how hard to kit up to do this or just send them to you

 

[Snowy01]

how hard to kit up to do this or just send them to you

It is a bit of mucking around.

- Large tub (200lt minimum)
- Film
- Scuff stuff
- Automotive paint's, thinners, hardner etc
- Proper Spray gun
- Activator
- Clear coat
- Heat element (for correct water temp)

And its the same amount of prep as you would do painting a car panel, but smaller obviously.

Having said that, i wouldn't mind knocking a few out for people.
