What kind of chain is that, looks like a too safety of a chain. Dont see how that thang could cut.

I am pretty sure it is a safety chain... even after I flipped it it didn't cut for crap.

You wouldn't believe how many used saws that I have purchased that had the chain on backwards.

Nice semi chisel chain would look nice on that saw.

Half the time homeowners sell the saws because they won't cut... buy em flip the chain and cut away

That tells you that them are the people that are on you tube ( idiots with chainsaws) cutting down trees and taking out houses.

I'm doing them a favor by removing the saw from their possession right?

But doesn't everyone want to become internet famous...in all the wrong ways.

Not me, folks know how many saws I got and always looking for another hole in my head.

Craftsman 2.3 has a broken fin... the one the recoil catch uses for the spring... any suggestions?

Need to get my lol baby Poulan 2000 out and twick the chain some and see how fast it can burn through a 4x4. Buddy of mine said when he used to log, he would cut the depth gauges down on his chain to make them cut faster, may look into that.

Replace flywheel, will be out of balance.

Drill a small hole and put a pin or screw in it. Ballance on the flywheel isn't ideal, but I don't think it would be too bad. Best option would be to replace though.

Looks sweet, but that does not look like a saw I would want to run for very long. What does that thing even weigh?

That's Cody's new limbo for and climbing saw

I've seen a lot of debate about flywheel fins, I've seen a thread where a mechanical engineer has said the balance is in the magnents and not the fins, the fins are only for cooling and you could loose them all and it still function, much like my Jonsered 70E that had the steel flywheel with bolt on plastic fin assembly.

I'm guessing the balance is in the flywheel on this one hence the strategically placed drill holes... wonder if I can find one for this saw still ...

Replace flywheel or drill and tap a hole for a screw. Put locktite on the screw and leave enough sticking up to hold the spring
