Just got this for $50

A runner? Even if not, worth every penny.

Have not tried to start it, but it was stored with almost no fuel in it so it should spring back to life

Nice bar scrench carrier. I like that, must be a Stihl deal, oh, nice saw too.

Eh, I personally hate the scabbard that goes with the case. Too bulky and doesn't slide as nicely as the others you can buy from them. I always stick my scrench in the case, which lately has become the chaps and tools carrier, as my ms361 no longer fits in with the dogs.

Oh and the ms361 is a success now. Lowered the needle valve and it no longer seems to flood out while sitting. Interesting, but it works for now. Hopefully it doesn't do it again.

Aaaaa, it came with a case, you didn't show that. When I got my echo, they had a deal going on for a limited time you get a free case, I like mine. It has a place for everything to snap into.

Well I looked at the pictures again and now I can see part of the case, I like mine, big square box, the top opens and the side let's down to excess everything, bar cover slips on the saw and you set the saw in and it locks in place to the case.

I also see two full wraps in the background also.

Tried to find who it was but I'm literally technology challenged, somebody on this thread wanted an Echo 750 evl, there's one for sale on eBay. Actually there's 3 plus a bunch of parts. Hope this helps, I see how you CAD addicts go thru withdrawal.

It was probably "Jackofall".

That's the problem with saws. If you want to use em, they take up so much space with the bars on. Also, I hope that log is drier than a bone. Don't want to rust those chains.

My buddy sells tons of this at his gun shop. Fantastic for rust prevention. When they ground the lens for the Hubble telescope it was done near us at an underground mine complex because of the floor stability and constant temperature. Every 3 months the pm'd all the machinery and there was ZERO rust anywhere this stuff was used. Plus it smells great.

Soak the log cut with oil, be like a preservative.

Well last night I was burning the midnight oil working on the Mac. Got more of the parts cleaned up and ready wonder how they put this thing together. Can't get sockets in certain places, and I really dislike that they used flatheads for nearly all fasteners. Still trying to figure out how the carb comes off with all the linkages. Any tips guys, I'm not seeing it right now?

It's dry as a bone, when I slabbed it out I was getting nothing but powder, when that cedar drys out it's hard to get chips or noodles out of it.
