Great job Joe, good to know there is more of them out there in running condition. I have one here that has not been run since 1947, I know the original owner well. His family had one of the first water powered sawmills in this area, its still there but not in use any more. The Precision was the first gasoline chainsaw that family bought somewhere around 1945. I just have to stop messing around with outboard/inboard motors and drives so I can put some time in again with my old saws. I got to meet up with Alain this summer when he was visiting here in NS.

Yes sir that's what I was taught to do. If someone needs it and you don't work something out for them to get it.

The McCulloch 15 or as we all call them over here >Mac15 is a very common saw in both the US and Canada, there were hundreds of thousands of them made and sold here, they were a lower end consumer saw. There should be lots of filters and covers kicking around on this side of the pond.

Well cool maybe ill find or at least see one one of these days.

If you posted in the trading post section/thread for one I bet someone on there would have a spare one. There were a few different filter types used for these saws with the thread wrapped cylinder type being the most common. The pict you posted looks like what we call, the chore girl type of filter material. Any one of the filter types would work for your saw.
