I ordered a 200t kit yesterday from the one local store. I spend a lot of money on my builds, alternative cranks and cylinders, OEM parts like bearings and seals, chain adjuster gears, clutch springs and such. You would not understand it, I was building model airplanes as a kid - from scratch - I cut all the parts myself from selected wood. The experience of creating. No such saw sold second hand around my part of the world. Cheers.

An OEM crank is of the budget. I do have two different alternatives though - always for critical parts like that.
It might end up 50% of a new saw - or more, but as I said, no good used alternatives in my part of the world.
And the build itself is valuable to me, more than a ready to use tool.
- Look at the parts, choose and build, start it up and be amazed.
Eventually it comes a part of my life, the music - the people I interracted with at the time of the build; it becomes part of my memory - good memories.
The male part of the family dies from canser at 60 years +-.
I still have a couple of years left :drinking:
