Would you believe I just noticed this thread?

I've got a Mac 35 to trade off. Who wants it? :hmm3grin2orange:

:msp_rolleyes:Sorry, not me, I be full up on those pups.



Aaron: The wood knob works fine and gives him character.
I should have one or more of the 101 type plungers........................I got your address.

Yeah I have two. One is in very good shape. I got it from the original owner's son.

Looks like you may need a thumb button for the 3200's manual oiler..........unless you like the rustic wood look. May be able to use a button from an XL-12.

I still haven't pulled the coils from my two parts C-5's. I'll pull them and test them to see if either is good. If one's good, I'll trade it (and a condensor) to you for a good XL101-104 or XL-925 manual oiler plunger thumb button (or whole plunger assembly). My SXL-925 needs a button, and the button (and plunger assembly) are the same for XL101-104 and SXL-925 series saws according to my IPL's. My manual oiler plunger works fine, but the button's missing....

Maybe you should just go wood.:msp_tongue:

Ah, yes, the square oiler knob. That is so it will scratch the paint on the handle. Homelite engineers were so clever.

Take a good look at the misc. small bits on your 103 if you need anything else.

Pics?

Opps.......that's the wrong saw. lol

I'll have to take some.

I think I'll stay OEM on this saw. The wood will look more at home on my Wards WD60...

Thanks Carl. I'll look at the XL103 to see what else I need for it. I know I need a bucking spike, but you already told me you don't have a spare. Will probably grab that one on feebay. Still haven't gotten that XL104 yet, but it's most likely going to come my way. It probably will need screws and other little bits if it's in a condition similar to my buddy's other saws. Here's one of his I'm working on (to the right of my XL103)...

I estimate it would take four or five hours machinest time to do the crank and key. It would be very expensive.

You cannot just cut a new keyway. Ignition timing you know.

Now, if I had an endmill.............................................................................

This would be for the clutch... flywheel side is fine. However, someone eons ago must've forgotten to tighten the clutch nut and it wallowed out the key way.

I can see it how would be expensive for the flywheel side, though...

I guess I did good finding the 750 and 650 I have....

 

[heimannm]

Up-date and thanks to McTodd...I now have the battery box and cover for the 10-10E. This project will likely have to wait until I get back from the next trip but it will get done.

Thanks!

You think?


Most of those beasts are either worn out, busted up, or both. This one is an old logging vet (we're searching for pics to scan of this very 750 being held next to the face cut of a HUGHE 10' or bigger diameter Redwood (before making the backcut). No broken parts other than a rear handle that I replaced. A couple stripped screw holes. Engine's nearly cherry inside................................but it has about 2 square inches of paint left on the outside. That's AFTER I swapped on the nicer rear handle. The paint on the crankcase under the tank and carb box is cherry.............but not visible with the saw assembled. Most of the abuse to that saw came when it wasn't being used for cutting...

This 750 came in a box disassembled. We bought a NOS carb box/rear handle just to get the grip. I got he decomp lever bits Friday so now we can finish it up and install the grip.

The 650 Super arrived in the condition you see it here.

I still need a fan shroud for it.

 

[Eccentric]

Nice! That part you need for the 650 is a starter screen on the IPL by the way. Fan shroud usually means flywheel cover....

OK.......now using the correct terminology. I need a starter screen for the 650. :msp_biggrin:

Didn't mean to pick nits. Finding an NOS starter screen will probably be a hell of a lot easier than finding a flywheel cover....

It's the "picking of nits" that helps us know what the heck we are going on about.........it's hard to believe that less than three years ago I knew barely enough about saws to cut with one.

I take the rainbow of wrenches to mean that you and the dh are getting along quite famously, maybe even fabulously?





J/K, nice workbench.:hmm3grin2orange:

I ain't seen DH. Since he got banded he probably got drunk and offed himself.....again.

Our shop is 200 sq ft and has over 35' of work bench in it......and still no place to work.

I thought he was paying the sponsor fees so he didn't get banned.
