Just watched your video looks like it worked well, them pits in the side wont hurt a thing
I was hoping it wouldn't! And I was super surprised at how clean the good parts of that bar came out, it was silky smooth after. And after looking the bar over today making sure the oil finishing job was working I noticed that the rust pitting has a natural beauty to it
 
Hard nose bars have basically a weld around the nose then ground off. Its called stellite, idk if that the correct spelling. Super hard,valve seats are made of stellite, it wont wear like at all, good hard nose bars are stellite tipped

Ahh well then I'm glad I was able to bring it back from its rust encrusted tomb!
 
Yeah Ive seen that one, crazy expensive, one sold a few weeks ago on ebay and brought like 1600
 
I'm not 100% sure but when he posted it another user made the comment about seeing the Craigslist listing for it and the guy wouldn't budge off 2k
 
I have spoken with him a time or two, he's a huge mcculloch collector, he had a sweet website but the last time I tried to get on it didn't come up. it is macbobaust.com
He seems like a really cool guy, his collection is amazing for sure.
 
I came up with an idea. But it's mainly for people who are cheapskates like me. Could you buy the filter material like mcculloch saws use in sheets and cut it to shape and glue rubber on the edges to match make an air filter that is as good as a store bought one. I need some that are like $24 each and one that is probably NLA and one that might be also NLA. To buy the 4 filters I'm looking at, it would cost me $100 or more if they are still available. Do you guys think it's possible to buy the material and make my own and save the $100.
Thanks
