Picked up a free MS460 that was thrown into the dumpster at work. It was used to cut refractory brick at work, and it's filthy.

Missing recoil assembly, bar and chain, and the piston was roached on the exhaust side transferring some aluminum to cyl that I need to clean up. All torn apart right now, got everything I need to rebuild it but not sure I feel like tackling it today.

I like the Miller you showed.

I will warn you though that the knock offs have had problems with the power transistors used in the invertor circuits and good replaced ones can cost as much as the welder. Some of the guys I have talked with say it is a crap shoot, some of them seem ok and some were lemons.

I think I will make time to get the Homelite 1050 back together, and get some tools put away. It was a little chilly out there this morning, but think I have it heated up enough to keep from freezin'.

Talking about Tig machines, I worked for an Agri-Service company last spring, and they had a couple of those Miller (Maxstar??) They were a little toaster sized box, they could do Arc or Tig. I can vouch that they are a nice little machine. I used them alot on stainless plumbing on fertilizer trucks, sprayers, and stainless tanks. Don't really know what they cost, but I'm going to look into one myself.

Sachmo......check your local Miller shop for trade-in welders. I bought a Shop 250 Sycrowave for $1200. Had to buy the torch, footpetal, and gas valve for another $300. Total $1500 Excellent machine. It was like new, came out of a hospital hardly used.

What's on my bench...

more junk than I can handle. :msp_biggrin:
Right now a 61 "parts" saw that looks like new. :msp_smile:
Got a 61 to 266xp conversion going and a 029 Super I'm replacing body parts on.
A 3400 CounterVibe that needs to be cleaned and assembled with new ring.
A 272xp with a toasted p/c. going to get a complete build from cases up...someday.
Have 5 or 6 saws I can run while I'm doing these. Life is good.

How dare you mention something about chainsaws, lol. Nice find!

 

[J.Walker]

Cleaned up the Jonsered 2171wh, 2153cwh and the Husky 562xpg. The heated handle saws have seen alot of use the past few weeks.
Filed down the rakers on a few chains.

Finally got this out and played. Almost finished with my 350 build.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

Pegboard and a spiffy new Stihlhead sign on this particular bench. YAY! Cool, Huh?

(It ain't what's on your bench, but rather what's in your parts washer.)​

 

[whitedogone]

On the bench now are the first couple of old Husky's I've worked on
