Project Stumpbroke Makita 7900

[Hedgerow]

I hope that sawr's still there when we get there...Maybe the new owner will let me give it a try. Otherwise I'll have to talk to one of the Wisconsin boys into letting me try one out! :msp_drool:

This one's a dandy... I'm sure you'll get to run it....

Thanks for the thread Stumpy. Your pictures were very detailed and I appreciate the time you spent taking the photos. It's cool because when you read the thread from my end it's like almost being there watching you port it.

I finally got my turn at molesting one of these for a local guy. It came to ma as a tired ex-rental 6401.

It will be receiving a new OEM 7900 top end with the new slab sided piston, HD filter setup, and of course a sticker.



That set up looks famiiar????

Local guy you say? Thanks again Stumpy, nice job on the saw and thanks for working so secretly with my wife. I definitely enjoyed the surprise.

Now that the Kita is outta the bag I can fess up. This saw wasn't a build for a local. It was a special build for a really nice guy/friend. This thread http://www.arboristsite.com/chainsaw/198509.htm will explain the doins done by Sarah. I was more than happy that she had me do this. A few other members were in on it too.

I'll go through my vids from this weekend to see If I have any of this saw.
I do have one last pic of it after I switched stickers to a more color coded one.

That's what I thought when I opened the box. Sarah picked out a good one.
