This One Works Great On Fingernails
Just scored a 2100CD - well, paid for it and have just started waiting for it to arrive. lololol Waiting is going to be torture 'cos I love those things!
Not too sure about the condition (from the photos) but I know those things inside out and back to front. A long time ago I assembled them (along with 41's, 444's, 61's, 162's and 480's) for Husqvarna. Must have assembled a few thousand (of those model combined) over the years I worked for 'em. The 2100XP's (as they were back then) and the 444's were my favourites. All the saws I made got a good deal of love and care as I assembled the buggers. Used to take care with even stuff that probably doesn't even matter - like having the rounded side of washers facing outward) and other silly stuff 'cos I just loved those buggers! Even raced 'em later during my time with Husky.
Anyway, more than 40 years later I have my own 2100 on the way! WooHoo!
Been out of chainsaws for a long time and haven't kept up with stuff at all.
The reason I'm posting this is out of interest as to the differences between the CD's and the XP's. The 2100XP's I/we made all had CD igniters anyway (Iunlike the 380 vs 480's). Might be some other things like filter variants, muffler variants, starter housing, carb. and clutch and brake improvements etc but I really have no idea. Anyone know whether there was anything major?
Cheers,
Mike
