I sort of rigged the one side of the handle bar with rubber wrap but if it was up to me all saws should have a full wrap

a nice stack of freshly cut wood by your 041 super, with it sitting on top, sure make it look even better!.......................:msp_biggrin:

I've got a nice big(40+")log I'll be working it out on. It's already on the ground, just needs cut and split.

I'm not a Stihl fan by any means, but DAMN that looks good!

What paint did you use? I just aquired an old 041 that's getting stripped down.

 

[Nate66n1]

Tractor implement paint I think. Its been a while since I painted everything but when I go out to the shed ill get pics of the paint I used.

I just picked up another 041 this weekend. Im gonna leave it to though cause it is super clean. Just got to clean it up and give it a good going over.

Great job!

The lines and style of that saw is just great. While I appreciate the performance gains of the newer saws, the older saws wins hands down when it comes to styling. The way the hand grip curves, the lines of the dawg, it just flows.
