    UFS (Unidentified Free Saw)

    I've got one very similar to that. There's a picture of it over at Mike's site. Mine uses 7/16ths chain so check your drive sprocket. It's a good running saw, 5.8ci, and has cut a lot of wood over the years. Not any more of course. I think it was purchased new around 1970. John........

    very interesting helicopter mounted saw.

    Yikes. I'd hate to be sitting in a tree stand somewhere when that thing went by. How in the heck would they be able to alert the locals to wear their hard hats?

    Another eBay shafting

    OK. So when he complains about someone's inability to understand English and he can't spell "punitive" I'm supposed to take his word for it when he claims he's 'not racist'. Read his posts. Everyone he refers is somehow bad or evil. Well, except him of course. Ebay is a big pool so complaining...

    Another eBay shafting

    Exactly. A lot of people here both buy and sell on ebay and it isn't always the sellers that are jerks. Having a way to get the info out here would protect us all but this weird telling of half stories is pretty annoying.

    Another eBay shafting

    What is it that is so obvious? Ebay is a public domain and if you would just give us the item number straight off, which someone else already has now, we could have told you what we thought without all the intrigue. This is the second time I've seen this in a week when someone has a problem on...

    New Jugs

    I'd take at least one each of the BB026 and BB036 right now. The BB036 would give me a good reason to sell my 385xp. Is there any chance you could have one of the saw modders here do a mild woods port on one of the prototype samples and tell your suppliers to "make them like this". A woods...

    Craftsman chainsaw 358-351200 3.3cc

    Your sister lives in the same town as me. There is a large Sears parts distribution center on Front St. between I-29 and I-435. They always have had every part I've ever needed in stock which has been a constant source of amazement for me. If you can't get it by doing some sort of cross to a...

    A different sort of chainsaw

    Those things do have a slipper clutch that actually works pretty well. It doubles as the PTO on/off switch and is located between the attachment and powerhead. I have one of the right angle drives for the circular saws but I've never found a 24" blade so I've promised it to someone else. I have...

    What have you picked up from here?

    Let's see, I've learned: 1. How to do a muffler mod. 2. Even numbered Stihls are much nicer than odd numbered ones. 3. Husky guys will never admit to liking a Stihl and visa versa. 4. Andy knows everything, really. 5. Don't use sarcasm before your first 100 posts. Oh one more: Dolmar...

    opti-2 to run or not to run

    I've got five gallons of the stuff. I'm going to start using it in my backpack blowers and string trimmers this spring. Hopefully they will survive it. I'm going to run it 50-1. John....

    MS191t: The Most Powerful Stihl TopHandle EVER!

    I'm suprised the guy didn't put .404 on it seeing as how it's so powerful. I do love it where he describes it as an "over the top handle saw", very clever. John...

    361-C and 9 pin sprocket

    I run .325 8T on 20" bars on both my 036 Pros and I'm very happy with them. Why risc bogging your saw with a 9T when you can be sure of how it will handle an 8 tooth rim. I've yet to hear an explanation of why anyone thinks 3/8ths is so much smoother in the cut. .325 has more teeth and each...

    Kart Chainsaw Engine

    Hey, that's my saw on Mike's site. I must say I'm quite the photog. That motor wouldn't be that tough to convert for Kart use but before I did that I'd find a Toro 2-stroke lawn mower engine. They are made by Suzuki, are about 225cc, and are bulletproof. Just change the carb and exhaust, ditch...

    Quiet Cainsaws

    Homelite CS-50 I have one and it is shockingly quiet. Perfect when you're someplace that you want to get out of without making much noise. It's my wheeling saw. They have a very large muffler with two small outlet tubes. If you redirected those two tubes somewhere under the saw and then into...

    Something a Little Different

    The Honda engine also make your ground speed higher than it really needs to be and then you need a different final drive set. A buddy of mine put a Honda on an old L and he couldn't keep up with it on foot. Ended up putting LI gears in. If you really want an awesome brush cutter find a...
