I guess i came back in too late. What about Jackofall?

I am trading a toasted husqvarna 365 x-torq for a Mcculloch 795. I am pretty excited about it. The 795 needs some work, but it looks good and is supposed to run on a prime

OK, I'll add a couple I just finished. First one of the 3-25 is before and after, of course. And I just realized - didn't have the front handle on it yet.

Trying to round up an order for saw parts tonight. Anyone know what size and type of fuel line the homelite 350/350/450 ect used. I don't have the saw anywhere close, but I do know it's not tygon fuel line. Must be some sort of rubber stuff I'm guessing.

I have always wanted to do a full resto like that, but I would never use it afterwards. Nice job!

 

[buzz sawyer]

Thanks. They are mostly for gtgs but I take one out a cut a little now and then just to keep them happy.

Here are pics I just took showing the handle, flywheel side, and back. I had to make a rubber mount for the handle. I cut the taper on the end of a solid stick of rubber, then glued it into a piece of rubber hose that fits over the handle. The taper locks into the flywheel cover.

Super 33 is one of the best looking saws every made. I have a 39 that needs a full restoration one day.

I see you have the full sprocket cover, nice! Wait - it says "39" on the logo. Couple years newer but same engine.

Do you have a source for the wrinkle finish paint?

 

[heimannm]

Last time I tried a wrinkle finish I got an aerosol can from a motorcycle shop...it didn't work (can was too old) so I went with hammertone instead. When I get serious about a looker I will pursue the wrinkle finish again.

Super 250?

 

[heimannm]

That one is actually a 650, the tamer version of the front tank gear drive saws. The 660 is much closer to the Super 250 engine for performance.

McCulloch went to a lot of work to make that compact gearbox. With the clutch cover on it is barely distinguishable from a direct drive saw.





The gear case on the 640 is a lot more obvious.
