Ya was just havin a little fun. Gotta do that once in a while. I got some better pics that i will post up a little later. Still grying to figure oit wherw im gonna put them all lol.
Yeah, my 2.3 was a powersharp model as well. Stone got removed though. I asked the guy why it got removed, and I guess they never worked well, that's why so many never come with the stone inside. Supposedly you twist the knob a couple of clicks or so and then push the lever against the chain while it is running. Pretty similar idea to the modern powersharp where it is grinds against the end of the bar. I'm not sure, but I assume it uses a different chain also with this system although I never checked out the chain on mine to closely, as I ended up getting an entire new setup for the b/c. Good little saws though, got a lot of power, the antivibe would be nice on them though, hands get to ringing after a while.So the old crafts man saw has some power sharp thing built in. Any body have any knoledge on how they work or do i need special chain for it. Was playing with some of them saws. So far 3 for 3 for running. They may need a tune up though.

It might just be seized up, only way to tell is to take off the clutch cover. Looking at the picture again, that chain is most definitely different from normal stuff. Way more aggressive than normal stuff to accommodate for the self-sharpening. Also looks like the saw has hardly been used, hardly any paint gone up against the oiler tank, and that chain looks mint. Must've sat on a shelf most of its life, I think the stone is still going to be in there with the amount of use it's seen.
Hope its still ther. Was planning getting one at a time out and get running and clean all up but got kinda excited when the first one fired up and kept trying lol. Will clean them all up eventually and attempt to get running so long they dont need any major parts. Im really hoping to get one of the big one working.
That's awesome! It's a good Saw just to clean up and be a convo piece if anything else!
And you right, it's fun to poke fun every now and then lol, only thing is I love everything so I can't say anything bad about any of them lol
My Homelite 750 sounds awesome at idle...it just jumps around on its own and sounds great, it's like a heavyweight pro boxer that grunts and breaths hard and punches fast into the air for the camera while they introduce him before the fight. Full throttle my Homelite C-52 with "haystack" exhaust...can't call it a muffler at all wins the barking contest. My little echo top handle has no exhaust at all just shoots straight from the cylinder and is loud and shoots flames if using during dusk or night
For the "barking" contest my Mall Saw wins. It has the same engine as the Remington Super 990. It will bring you to your knees. Wayyyy louder than my C-52 w/ haystack, even louder than a Stihl 090.
