The only reason I don't have that many is I don't have that much money.

Literally done that for the last 2 years... I blame it on needing saws for ongoing yard work where as the motorcycle is purely a toy and it's harder to find time for it. Now, I'm probably going to sell it once I finally get it finished soon.
I need to sell a couple saws, but I just can't. I might use them one day, maybe. If I sell them I won't have them anymore. I just can't.

Sounds like you've got a touch of CAD unlike some folks that have it full blown.

Finding saws like this for $80 is worth the wait and putting less that $40 for a perfect runner. Still has the Poulan chipper chain on it that looks almost unused.

Here I went over 420 mile round trip for an 18 month old 661. Run pretty steady by the loggers in Illinois.
Looks nicer than it runs, which is okay, it is supplying the crankcase for a 660 crank stroker. $550

I have chainsaws and chainsaw accessories.
A guy on a Facebook group I'm in acquired a bunch of parts saws from a closed dealership and posted some pictures, while everyone was clamoring and drooling over the mostly incomplete stihl saws I spied a red saw covered in shmoo. A week later I had a shindiawa 577 sitting on the picnic bench for examination.....she was locked up solid so I pulled the muffler expecting the worst but saw a pristine piston with some rust below the ring so I pulled the plug and found water. I soaked the p and c with pb blaster then let it sit. With the aid of some percussive adjustment tools on the clutch side I got it free then added some gas and like a smokey old train it came to life.
I must be some kind of lucky because its another non runner saw I've gotten with new fuel lines and a rebuilt carburetor.

That Shini fits her just right.

You know you have cad when you decide leave out a good running saw with a good chain, extra fuel, and bar oil incase the fire crew needs an extra saw and you don't care if they keep it because their saving homes.
When you bring home any old junk saw that you know you can't find parts for, just for the challenge of getting it running.
SL-4. Them are easy except for good covers. (Clutch, recoil and AF covers.)
A Homelite SXL piston w/rings is a direct replacement. [emoji106]
Here I view this thread thinking it will help....and I think it's making me worse. I've asked myself many times, what is the appeal of a chainsaw? I have no interest in having a collection of string trimmers (although I do), leaf blowers, hedge trimmers, or anything like that. Yet here I am with about 10 running saws and about another 7 in process. The amount of wood I cut in a year you could cut with a battery powered saw from Harbor Freight.
Saws are just cool. Dont need another reason to collect them. The wife disagrees, but she also likes a warm house.
I wonder if my wife will notice that every time I trim the branches on our birch trees I use a different saw? Or that sometimes I trim them with a 57cc saw with a 24" bar?

The mechanic at work gave me a not running ryobi 4618, it was free and I didn't have to go pick it up. Its got compression and spark. Its needs a top cover which is literally a 4$ item on this saw.
I always say if you've got compression and spark, you've got a runner.
