Thanks for the reply,

How small is too small for porting? This might be silly to ask? I am not brand specific, but would love to hear or see old small mag saws ported and if anyone has biult and used them. I would think newer saws are more common to port and probably easier on the body than older non av models and...

O.K I am in the same boat, I got a few given to me and I bought 2, never really used them for anything serious. I like those things, I dont know why they are so unloved. I hate the pioneer saws, they were mag saws and would boil gas, never start.... The puolans were handy easy to start and...

I would have jumped on it. Trade, give, sell what you can and keep what you want. Great way to pass away Covid blues, with a good project. Right now I would love a project. My biggest hurdle is a place to work on them and then where to keep them, for now.

I do not think battery powered saws are any better than a cordless reciprocating saw, dewalt, milwakee, rigid, all make quality products, so does stihl but what I need( want) at this point in my life, is the fastest way to cut, even if it still requires more muscle. Once the pull cord gets a...

Truly, you've been blessed with quite a talent. We have a local guy carve a rooster for my wife, he had it down, but not the level of love you have. Be quite pleased with yourself, well done

I had a 500 but ended up giving it away becuase parts were hard to come by and it was a slow cutter for me. Great saw as it cut all day long and lighter and faster than the stihl 08 up down saw l had, but the newer saws were lighter and faster so I gave it to my friends dad for cottage use. I...

I say go to home depot, or other rental shops and see what they carry. Ask them why they picked those particlar models. If you establish a good repour, see if they will be clearing them out soon, or sales coming. Ask them what they think the best saw for your jobs are, take notes on prices, and...

Just awesome, if you are ever in Niagara falls, message me.

Great advice, however, I have rebuilt mine 3 times. It was always meticulous, I finally figured out why, the last time. I am not doing firewood so I dont run my saws like I used to. Those saws are still new in my mind but, my first one, I purchased in 1999. The carb boot was disintagrating and I...

Awesome saw,enjoy the good run of luck. I have not been able to score a deal all year. The closest deal I got was from our home hardware store $40. Off a fs 90 trimmer and a nice looking lady took ma money at the register. My nice lookin lady at home was not impressed at all but my fs 110...

You dahm right, thats a good score! Sometimes you get lucky, now go off and do a good deed for someone with it. Sorta repay the favour. Good stuff!

That is a great little saw, o21,23,25 are the same saw family. Easy to start, light and way more useful than the ms 170,180. To me thats where Stihls should start, not the ms 170,180. I have had quite a few Stihls and I have respect for those little ones, I even think they are better that the...

Nice work, I sure wish I got one. Very creative!

Ya, thats what I like. Awesome, that would be great. Nice work. Are you also building a mitre set up too, becuase that is also on my list

Amazing, that is so cool! I still dont want to be under the ford falcon tree though.

Many, many blessings to you and your family, I did the same and 12 years later gave them the real deal, as well as positive life skills and training. May your family grow to do great things.

Can you tell me or show me how you made your mill, please. I bought some metal like yours, but i would like to see how you constructed yours and how effective it is. I like your jig for straight cuts too. Your saws and pics are amazing

You are fortunate to have the log beach,as well, you have the stamina to complete your dreams. Truly a pleasure to read your exploits. They encourage others as the rest of your other posts do. Fantastic! Thanks for the story and especially the picks. Any best of wood projects from the harvested...

Unreal, you will love thAt saw! Surprisingly there were not that many made. I would have figured they would have made more 2095 than 2094's. The 2094 had no decomp valve, where as the 2095 did, and it damm well needed it. I can not imagine why they stopped biulding them. It really is a shame, as...
