Hey FATGUY!

Nik pulled apart a saw? Really? How many beers did that take?

I couldn't find the thread!

Dang, thats too bad. I was planning on being there Friday with a couple pocket fulls of dollar bills..

If the saw was running....those parts are extra....you've re-engineered the saw! Congrast! Oh....those left over parts are called "pocket parts". There's nothing better to do with them but put them in your pocket! :hmm3grin2orange:

Speaking of "re-engineering", some of you may remember "Madman" Earl Muntz, salesman extraordinaire and amateur inventor. He got his start as the world's largest Kaiser-Frazer dealer (I think Randy Mac bought one from him ) and progressed into televisions. He literally bought a set and started pulling off parts to get it to its simplest form while it still worked (sort of). In fact this form of re-engineering became known as "Muntzing".

Some of his other creations were the Muntz Jet car and the Muntz Stereo Pak, a forerunner of the 8 track tape.

My father has a 029 super and I've worked on it serveral times for him, am I missing the joke its a nice saw and pretty easy to work on. Other than to much plastic

Disclaimer: My comments are not to the quality of the parts or how long it will last. They are a very sturdy saw and will last most people a very long time. My first saw was a 039. I burned firewood for several years, and it was the only saw I owned. I never had one problem with it.

Lol, I bet there was a time when you actually really loved running that stock junker, eh?

no joke and no dissrespect, it's just much more work to pull a cylinder off a clam shell vs. pro construct. Like I said earlier, it's a saw made of well built components, lots and lots and lots of well built components.

You know I did! I didn't know any better It ran right along side my Dad's 046 Magnum and didn't know to hang it's head in shame, lol.

I'm assuming that you haven't had to remove the cylinder or even the rear handle.

think even the muffler had to come off to do that....

I hate the way it's held together with the AV mounts!

Well, after reading what some of you are saying about the 026/029, I now don't feel too bad about accidentally chucking that 026 a long time ago. It was a PITA to tear that piece of creamsickle down, I remember that quite vividly...

Speaking of that 026, I think I may have one or two lonely parts from it laying around yet. Been a little while since I really dug around in the boxes down in the dirt floored barn that sparrows and robins like to live in.


As for clamshell engines, there were a few that simply smoked (still smoke) most of the competition in the same cc class...

I am not going to divulge what saws I'm babbling about on account of idiots bumping prices well past what the dang parts and saws are really worth...

A 026 is a PRO chassis saw, real easy to work on, the 029 is a clamshell design, much more work to take a cylinder off.
