That's a great tractor, I would definitely pull the motor and rebuild it. You check compression on it yet by the way?

No comp test. But it seems quite low judging by how fast the engine spins over

I had one of those old Kohler K series on a case trenches. Pull starting that thing was like trying to pull an anchor from the mud. I believe I saw kits for those on ebay. I had some good links for a rebuild, have to see if I have them on the laptop because my desktop drive just went the way of the doedoe.

Any help would be appreciated :)

Hello all, I know this isnt a chainsaw but, I thought I would share my yard sale find, I picked up this vise on a local for sale site, well to be honest, my wife found the listing just browsing around.

A Wilton C2 made in March 1977 in pristine shape, little rust, all in working order and is complete with the exception of one pipe jaw. This thing weighs every bit of the advertised 105#! I've owned it for probably a year now but this past week I powder coated it to what I hoped was the original Chile Verde Green color. Its now back together and again mounted up on the bench. When I first saw the pictures of if online I knew exactly what it was and we rushed down to meet guy selling it. It turns out it has a story with it. It was used in the maintenance shop by the sellers father in our local lumber mill now a much smaller scale operation.

Needless to say, I gladly paid him the asking price of $20!

If anyone has the pipe jaw and are willing to part with it I'd like to buy it from ya.

Generally referred to as 'Bullet' vise. Worth big money. Yeah you suck!

No reason to apologize here. We all suffer from the same disease...CAD. I myself have been habitually using chainsaws for a long time. I started using chainsaws many years ago recreationally and it's progressed into a full addiction. If I don't use chainsaws regularly I get withdrawals. My chainsaw of choice is a Homelite 750. This is my favorite chainsaw and there are many like it but this one is mine. Without my 750 I am useless. Without me my 750 is useless.
Is the Private's name for his saw 'Charlene'?

I picked up a couple of Swedish girls in the last two weeks. Now the debate is which saw to keep. The 562 is a blast and handles like a dream. I picked it up first, then today I got the 372, the 372 is a legend in the woods. Help me out guys which one to keep which one to sell? My wallet can only justify cad on one saw. My husky line up is 346oe, 346ne, 359x2(both down), 562xp, 372xp, 372xt, 288xp(needs oiler and tlc).

Tough choice. If you are going to do any amount of limbing you will appreciate the lighter 562. The 372 will pull more for bucking of course.

I would keep the 562, thin the heard by ejecting one of the 572's (up to you to make that choice) and why dont you sell one of the 346's and one of the 359's (you preference also)while your at it and then more green for Cad[emoji13] Your collection definitely is a textbook example of CAD at best [emoji1]
