I do believe Mrs. Heimann has really embraced my passion, she bought this shirt for me.

I moved a few more over to the museum this week.

cbfarmall sent me the proper starter for this one (red color Fairbanks Morse) and I did fire it up and ran it a bit today but the oiler isn't working properly so I declined to make a cut with it.













One more...

For all you Mac lovers!
I was at the Western Reserve Historical Museum in Cleveland last weekend and came across this!! Neglected to take a picture of the car though.
Bob was waaaay ahead of his time.

Mark's probably got one!

Robert McCulloch was indeed a very clever, driven man.

Here are a couple more cleaned up and ready to go on display, as you can see both are based on the 33/35/39 powerhead.

I am starting to arrange the 33/35/39 model saws and variants in the museum now. Not sure if this is final but at least they are all cleaned up and moved over.





The D-36 on the top shelf is actually the same vintage as the 33/35/39 saws. Interesting that they had such widely varying designs in production at the same time.

By the way, that is a LeSabre on the bottom shelf, like the 33/35 power head but laid on its side to make a (left hand bar) direct drive saw as shown in a previous post.

Does that one old Mac have a drill chuck for a power head??

lol... imagine running a 3/4 bit into steel and that thing grabs on you!

 

[heimannm]

Yes, it is a 35 with a drill attachment and a genuine Jacobs chuck. Someone brought a 1" auger bit to a gathering in Wisconsin, stalled the clutch even boring in a chunk of an old soft poplar log...



The other drill has a spur gear reduction unit on it. That one starts and runs perfectly, as does the direct drive drill unit.

[MacAttack]

that's amazing....I've seen pictures of a Homelite power head running a circular saw, but the chainsaw power drill is really something. especially the unit with the gear reduction, that seems a little scary if it came out of your hands.

Thanks for telling me where to look for the latest on the Museum!!! Did you ever get the scratcher chain you were needing? I have a loop or two.--Ray

 

[heimannm]

I have a spare loop for the Comet but if you have some extra bits I wouldn't have to break apart the Comet loop.

I also have a loop on the Mall electric, but I don't want to mess with that one either.





Mark

 

[rheima]

I will check tomorrow--the loop came with one of my big Malls.--Ray

 

[rheima]

Yep-- I have two loops from the Mall 7H- they are kind of stiff and will need some soaking in some oil or penetrant.--Ray

When will you start accepting visitors Mark?
