View attachment 517689 I know this is an i suck for sure ms361 of course it didn't look this good when I got it but mostly was there..... $10

You definitely suck! I think I paid 400 for my used 361, yours is set up very similar to mine. did you do a muffler mod yet ? It really wakes them up! I noticed it looks like you have the skid plate on your saw. do you like it ? does it add much in the way of weight ?

I wonder if anybody has any pics of a 361 muffler mod how to.

I know people have better pictures and how to's to use than I do but here's a photo of mine

I've not done a muffler mod yet, but I will lol . I really like the tank guard I actually bought one for my ms271 also it came of eBay I think from custom chainsaw parts was the seller

 

[a. palmer jr.]

I've done muffler mods but not on a 361. Most of the Stihl ones are pretty easy to do..

They should have another thread that started out as "you suck" deals that turned into spending way more than the saw was worth lol.


I did suck on saw #1. Saw 2 and 3 sucked me dry lol. The Mac belonged to my friend's late father which made it worth resurrecting despite the cost.

I know all about that trust me I just started one of "those" saw projects. I like the fuel line and a carb kit then run em saws.

Is that middle homelite one of those Canada built antivibe deals?

Probably? Not home to check the tags for a week. Super Mini which is an EZ with rubber anti vibe. Also electronic vs points.

Honestly you're right bro. Start that thread. We need one. My quest for a western kit for a 25 dollar super ez is way more money than I want to say on a you suck thread.

Scored this Stihl 031AV at a garage sale for $10. Don't know if it runs until I get it home and add fuel mix. Compression was good and fuel line was still there in the tank, we'll see. Even if it's been straight gassed, I figured the 16" bar and chain was worth $10.

Got these from a guy who works at a little power company when I mentioned that I tinker with chainsaws.

He didn't want anything, but I couldn't leave them with no money, luckily, I had a $50 bill on me and I gave it to the guy to put in their lunch or beer fund.

He was very pleased and said he would look for more saws for me!

You'll like the welder, and the "Pats" will make life easier.

The spool of wire gives it away. That is your basic workshop MIG welder.

A TIG is generally bigger than that because you're pumping juice across a shield gas to transmit heat.

Once you get above that box size though, not as easy. You have to look for the hinges for where you load the wire in, the shape of the hand piece, etc.

Some are everything in one box as well. Stick, MIG, TIG. Like this one.

No telling just how well that last one works, or how well it'll wear in. Sometimes you pack too much guts in a tiny box, the cooling fan clogs, and all the magic smoke escapes. Then they decide they need to go back to a bigger case.

I've done a bit of welding but all I ever had was a stick welder, mine's an ac/dc Hobart. I tried some TIG welding at work but they weren't interested in getting the right gas and rods for me to practice on, don't really know why they bought a TIG anyway, we mainly just stick welded at our shop.
