It gets an 044 name plate for now...
Now I just need to start collecting 046 parts and do a swap over

Thats one hell of a story Lake. Im kinda looking for a way to do something similar to the 028 I acquired from a broke friend that owes me money. Now I see possible avenues of hope, Thanks.

Given the three basic models of 028's available, there's limitless possibilities!!
I was just out in the shop eyeing a bunch of 036 parts... might have to put on of those together soon... and then I also have boxes of 026 parts..
The best way to do it is collect parts over time.. and trade for what you don't have and don't rush .. that will just cost you money..

Wow, in my opinion only, the 2 best Stihl saws in their era. I love the 036 (when my 034 gets tired I will make it an 036) and I love my 026. I cant wait to see what you do with those 2 saws.

Looks like Troll has got you Jeff... One for Troll..
Yes, they are different.. The RIGHT side of the tank is the same, the left side (fuel cap side) is wider... Now I have proof you just look at the pictures and don't read the posts:hmm3grin2orange:

Glad you found that out and that I read it. I was looking at a 046 tank/handle and considering bidding on it for my 044 project. I'll keep on lookin'.
