Vintage Chainsaw Collectors Lounge

[Kensie1988]

I'm still trying to decide on a good new title for the thread. Maybe something like "Vintage saw collectors lounge"

I come from a long line of packrats--collectors--Its a family tradition on both sides--I really like messing with all the old stuff--well made--it has a great value to me and mine.

We can do that.

I like them all.

I read about the drone engines somewhere--Mr. mcculloch also made superchargers for engines--I think all his saws are sorta souped up in the horse power part.

Yep, Robert Paxton Mcculloch. That's where paxton superchargers came from. Worth a pretty penny

I likie, expecially since dad has a 350! Can't tell, but does it have a chain brake, and how does it run with a 28'', I've always been curious?

 

[Boomer 87]

No chain brake its just a bolt on hand guard. Ive never ran it with the with the 28" yet. It had a 20". I was impressed how hard it ran though for its size

Ok, those of you who persuaded me to not put my ms361 together until I got the gasket, you didn't try hard enough. I ended up using a liberal amount of black rtv sealant, and it looks like it sealed it up good. So far... I figure if I ever have problems down the line, a big bore kit and proper oil seals (as I dinged the one up a tad installing the crank) are going to go into it. The saw is mostly together now for exception of the ignition and chain brake (they have some slight issues). It's looking like a sweet little saw. Going to try and pick up a 20'' bar and chain for it tomorrow and hopefully finish building it after school. Might even have a maiden run tomorrow evening.

Just so you know RTV sealant will degrade from gas,you could end up with a vac leak that leans out your saw then...squeek..

There we go, I got the title changed, that should be a little more fitting!

It's for the bar oil tank, but it's not the side that abuts the crankcase, so I'm not all that concerned. If it fails, it's an oil leak and I take it apart and fix it.
