im pullin for ya
Being a NH native (deerfield) and a saw junkie who just picked up an 044 that is in pieces I wish you good luck. I'll certainly look forward to your seeing your progress. I hope that my project is going to be a bit easier. Mine is; Bottom end rebuilt w/ allegedly stihl bearings, cyl looks good and ordered a NWP piston from Baileys. 28" stihl bar with a toasted nose, wheres the best place (anyone?) to get a replacement bar nose? missing parts onmy project saw included: oil pump was missing the hard line to resivoir (replaced w/ used from Chainsawr.com), brake band (also from Chainsawr) and the following from Baileys; Bar Nuts, chain, muffler bolts, air filter, clutch drum, drive sprocket + bearing. + felling dog/bumper spike off ebay. I picked up the saw for 160 and im roughly 175 in parts into it. Im hoping to make a bargain beast!
cheers!
P.S. anyone got photos on a muff mod for this saw or am I just mental for not being able to find them already posted?
