I wasn't thinking of an actual hand tool, more on the personal line of tool.[emoji87]

Haha! Whoops! Sorry wrong site I was posting on. I'm one of the types who is constantly get the two forums confused lol.
Must I start including pictures in every post to get my point across? If it's truly that bad, the mods will quickly make sure you will no longer be hearing from me.

Well I was researching my steal of a Windsor bar and I found out it's a Husky large mount. It's not worth returning, so you can only imagine what I will be looking for in the near future.

Sounds like you need a large mount husky saw

I do have an 18" and 24" bar that I'm not using. Stihl mount 3003. But I don't have a large husky to fit your bar

Glad I'm not the only one who has the same idea! I think I'm just going to swap the 20" bar between saws for now as I'm quite set on a 36" for the 250 as soon as I figure out the sprocket problem. The 250 won't get used much except for the big wood anyway so I'm not too worried about bars.

I've got an old wooden handle hand saw, they do beat lugging a saw up the tree and you can slip the handle in your back pocket. They are real good when you put up a deer stand and need to trim up so you can see with out firing up a loud saw.

Next time just say" hand saw". Lots less confusion for us older folks and we don't have to Google it. [emoji38]

I didn't have a good day yesterday evening. Started tearing into a recent acquisition and found a roached piston. Still trying to determine if the cylinder is salvageable. On top of that, the other Saw I got with it also has a scored piston.

Well that stinks. How bad are the cylinders?

Picture #3 and #4, cylinder looks weird, like someone welded it up. #1 and #2, that looks deep.

#4 bottom right looks like a gouge

 

[Jackofall]

There would have to be a trade for one of those john Deere's, of course.

HAH! I figured you would say something like that...

 

[Kensie1988]

I have run my finger all around the inside of the cylinder and it's all smooth to the touch.

wrong color but the price looks right

I'd go a bit cheaper for parts but maybe that's just me. I'm a cheapskate nornakky

Trust me, I'm way worse than you could possibly be.

What is normakky ?
Is that a Texas word ? do they put them on Stihl saws like magnum stickers
Kidding you needed a poke for your Poulan comments
