I did some work on this, I got it to run on choke but it looks like the fuel pump isn’t pumping fuel as good as it should, so after the first of the year, I’ll put a new fuel pump on it and see what it does.

Looks like a nice heavy duty industrial mower--cool!!

The engine sounds pretty good, but it isn’t getting enough fuel and just runs a little then dies. I’m installing a new fuel pump, breather hose, fuel filter and I’ll try it again.

He certainly is. And mango wood of all things

Thank-you guys. I consider myself more of a wood hacker.
Here is a mango counter I puzzled together for my kitchen. Turned out to be easier said than done.

Lately I have been doing smaller pieces. Although it's koa, this was a bunch of scrap pieces, the base cut from a old ohia stump on my property.

Still here. I kinda quit messing with vintage saws when I moved, no one around to appreciate them, I have mostly plastic saws now...

Latest wood project. Coffee stump, milo, kiawe, & a little kou wood.


Been working on a Stihl 031 & am attempting to get an old Mcculloch 47 going. A little out of my comfort zone but I really want to get it going.

That looks pretty neat, love that wood color. Just image that wood grain texture and color on a Remington 700 or and old Winchester bolt action, it would look beautiful.

Working on a Lombard Super comango.

I find myself wanting a Lombard lately, as if I need another saw.

Not sure if it's vintage enough for this one but I've got an older 045av super that runs great and seems unstoppable in big wood. I've got some newer saws but there's something about this one that always puts a smile on my face. Picked it and an 028wb up for $300 a couple years ago. Thought it was non running til I tried starting it with the switch in the off position and it fired right up.

I'll try to get some pictures of it since it seems everyone here loves a good picture!

I've got an older Mac and a homelite xl but can't recall the specific model numbers right now.
