cool beans. didnt want a silvey?

Simington was offering a pretty good deal on the grinder and I really do not know the status of silvey. This grinder does just about everything I want so I am pretty happy with the choice.

14 saws hit my bench this last month (4 different brands) 4 complete rebuilds and most just a plain tuneup and cleaning to get ready for this season firewood gathering :msp_wink:

I kinda liked doing the 044 this month they had a parts saw because the case was cracked and I got that saw for a parts saw now with a nice cylinder out of the deal

Nothing wrong with this 10 mm 044 cylinder just a little dirty :msp_smile:

Husky 340 that is getting cleaned up and fixing the "no spark" issue.
Mac 610 this is getting cleaned up and fuel line replacement.

I love working on saws after work.
Relaxing and takes my mind off of work...

A friends Craftsman 55CC that's not starting. Most likely just bad gas but I'm replacing plug, fuel filter and possibly fuel line as the line is too short to pull out of the tank. Have to pick up a pair of hemostat pliers to try to get enough through and hold it in place.

Also have a stripped muffler bolt. Square bolt that slides into cylinder. Anyone have an idea where to get a new one?

Oh yeah. He's going to give me another saw that doesn't run as a thanks. I have no idea what it is and don't really care. A new free saw is a happy me.

Your friend should consider getting rid of that saw. I don't think they're bad saws but I absolutely could not get parts for mine. The bar oiler went bad on mine and I looked everywhere, including Sears, MTD,(the manufacturer) and McCulloch, none had parts for this saw even though it's not that old. I sold mine for parts.

next up 335xpt...little PITA saw but they do run pretty good when they do run right...and they bring alot of money:hmm3grin2orange:

I still have the same ones on the bench that I had last week. Snow and not well heated buildings aren't helping but as I said there is no hurry. Saws might end up on ebay or down at the neighbor's anyway...

In a studio apartment I don't have a bench, I have a kitchen counter, and a patio railing.

I decided to go have a look see in a 2 cycle repair shop yesterday while I was waiting for new wheel bearing assemblies, and shocks to be installed on my truck. Apparently this saw was abandoned by the previous owner 9 months ago who didn't want to pay his meager repair bill.

We gonna need a translation on the first sentence. Something about a circus bear choosing a new hat.

I think I may have had a mini-stroke. In my brain this time, instead of my pants.
