It's going to be the micro 25, this picture sealed it, it shows the clutch cover with the built in chain brake like the Agrest I have.

I think I've got something like that, in the non chain brake variety.

BTW, I looked and I do not have a filter cover for a partner 500

Alrighty, thanks for checking, I will go ahead and order one from Scott at Chainsawr then.

And $10 plus shipping for the XXV sounds good to me, I have one that I'm going to sell that I am going to work on first, then I will hit you up for the XXV.

So I want to tap the brain trust (yalls new nickname )

Has anyone ever seen one of these?

Now that I take a look at it...it looks like an older form of the 2300 countervibe as well

The xxv I have has a broke rope on the pull start. That may be all that's wrong with it, I dunno. I can swap pull starts and check spark if you want

No need, the pullcord on that Agrest functions as it should, rope still looks good too.

You a little late to the game, your brother beat you to it haha

 

[Kensie1988]

I might have to make that little Agrest my profile so it confuses everyone haha

Alright, I just haven't checked for spark on the xxv. So I can't guarantee that. But it is otherwise complete and should be what you need to complete your saw

Works for me, now that we know what it is I can get parts from somewhere to make it spark of yours doesn't.

 

[Kensie1988]

Have you ever seen one like that @Boomer 87?

 

[astnmacgto]

It might even be an export model because of the chain brake

 

[Boomer 87]

probly one of the nicest examples of a micro ive seen

 

[Boomer 87]

Poulan made saws for so many names its crazy, i have not heard of that particular brand. But other brands like wright,wizard,sears,allis chalmers,dayton,oregon,western auto,sachs dolmar, and more i dont know

 

[Kensie1988]

That Agrest is in pretty good shape to.

I believe it'll run. I've always been the train of thought you get what you pay for. Any time I try to save a buck I end up getting screwed. Probably just coincidence but you know. They are probably just fine saws

Yeah no I totally get where your coming from. For me these are just toys, I have no real purpose for them. If I were a professional, or even if I used them more, I would go buy a genuine stihl in a heartbeat. These saws are by no means OEM quality, but for me they are "good enough" for my uses. I mainly got it for the experience of building the saw.

 

[Boomer 87]

They also made Rigid brand saws, like the pipe wrenchs, they were a 5200 series saw Rigid 850 silver and black they look awesome

Fantastic experience

And that's the thing...I don't neeeeeed to have the real thing. That's why I was curious as to how far off they were
