Do you completely tear them down and repaint them? I'd like to do that if I had more time, but I am kind of inept about putting 5h1t back together right. And if I am going to use a saw a lot I won't bother making it all pretty, I like having a few ugly ones.

Every last one of them has been torn down and cleaned. Most of them all the way down to the crankshaft. That way I know what I've got and can make them right. Some I painted and others are original. A couple have acrylic urethane! I don't let a project set around very long. Once I start them I like to finish them ASAP. I hate leaving a project undone.

This XL 400 will be fired up in about an hour [when it gets light enough to see]

 

[SawTroll]

How about a dozen Husky's ?? ....Bob

Cool, but some of them are too "young" for this thread.........

 

[taplinhill]

Not as clean as Brad's

I couldn't find a picture of my Homelite 17's.

Some very cool old saws there. You've definately got your work cut out for you cleaning all those up Have you run any of them yet?

I had a few of them running a couple of years ago, but never cut with them. These were all saws that my grandfather used "back in the day". I understand why he thought his Mac 10-10 was the greatest saw ever.

That makes them even cooler!

 

[Jredsjeep]

got a few to play with, i would like to know more about my Homelite Zip. i just inhereted it since a few around me know i have a thing for saws.

 

[Farley9n]

These Should be "Old Enough" !

I'm sure that these two are "old enough" to get me back into Troll's good graces! I am curious though about which of the Husky's are too young? I did find a start date on the 51 as 1990 but no start dates on the 257, 262xp, 272xp. and 281xp...............Bob








As a side note: Not counting muffler mods only 5 of those Husky's are stock!

 

[JTElectric]

Sheesh Farley!!!! Just cuz they're called CHAINsaws, doesn't mean you can actually cut CHAIN with them! :greenchainsaw: Haha it already looks like you tried to cut through your wheelwell!

My dad has an old David Bradley monster up on the shelf in the solarium, I am pretty sure my little Mac 110 is older than 20! I'll get a pic of the old DB and get on here.
