No it won't Rick.
If you knew anything about racing you'd know I build Will's race saws for him with an 18v Hitachi 5" grinder, a 7/32" Vallorbe file, plus some 600 grit wet & dry combined with a gobful of spit.
Wayne, Benny, and I have quite a racing association going on here unbeknowns to many.

Yep the MS 200 t event between me and Matt, the ms720, 070/ 070 replica event between me and Wayne, 50cc class matts 550xp, my 'standard' 026 & Wayne's lil dolmar and the unlimited class with Matt and his 3120 and me with the 090 AV and just added the MS 241 C-M class too :smile2:

Oh my goodness, that all seems like fun, and very well matched too.....:msp_unsure:

the 3120 / 090 is going to get interesting,,, but who cares as long as you blokes have fun.

Double my goodness,,,, I thought the 070 replicas were the ducks guts for raceing,,,,well I mean according to 1 member anyway.

I'm with you on this Wayne,,,, when you hit the block, switch her off, then you won't get humiliated (flogged), and it easy to blame some engine part for failing.

Looks like a Dynamic geardrive , I think I can beat that one..but it would provide stiff competition for the chingaling 070 :D

Dear Neil.
You are obviously assuming the Chinese 070 will actually start to begin with.
Regards,
Matt.

Oh I see, well I guess that would make a race then, concidering the old girl has the starter rope (wire) hanging out and maybe an odd bit missing like the petrol cap ect.
But she does have a roller nose bar for extra grunt and speed, does the chingaling 070 come with such modern equipment.

Oh,,,,,,, Matt please explain,,,,,what are you suggesting ???????.
Why would that internet guru spend more than a year developeing and recording the chinese 070 if it was not going to start ??????. Bugger me I cannot remember his name, but there was a thread on the subject if you care to look.

I would have said about a 50 watt led to replace a 500w halogen flood.

On the back of my house pointed down the rest of the block I have a 500w halogen. I bought a 30watt led flood and fitted a cord and plug to it. It throws good light but won't light that same area - needs more wattage.

The led lights are also much heavier, so you may need a different mounting point too like into brick or solid timber (fascia). It would require some messing about for me as nothing solid is on the right line to mount this led light.

Instead my plan is to mount it over my firewood piles which are in a bit of a dark spot.

cool ,yeah I was leaning towards the 50w units as the price is still pretty good ,any thing higher and the price sorta climbs alot
 
Yeah the light I got should be top quality as it came from a reputable lighting shop that do a lot of commercial design & supply work and have them in use in commercial and industrial settings, apparently including some inside sheds on mines running 24/7 and no failures.

And I sourced a houseful of lights from them now 7 years back and the one failure they replaced no worries even 18 months after purchase (I took it back and they exchanged it free, I actually hoped for a discount due to length of time).

No doubt there's Chinese junk out there too.

Complaining about site moderation is against the rules, Bob. Have another vacation.

Bob your right I don't like the Chinese 070, the build quality is rubbish but I didn't give up, I have it running and I don't want it looking like the real deal.
It is what it is.. a gutless piece of Chinese ****, making it look like a genuine 070 is stupid, I don't promote counterfeit saws.
I might be a backyarder but any project/repair I start I finish.

Now you want to buy it? , do you have any saws worth trading for this Chinese marvel? :msp_wink: Please no mac homeowner junk.

You need to doll your Chink 070 up with some genuine Stihl stickers mate. Then you'll gain everybody's respect ;)
Also as far as a "backyarder" goes you exceed the capabilities of any backyarder I've come across. You've fixed saws that I would have given up on two seconds after laying eyes on them.
