what's on your bench?

[sachsmo]

Same stuff,

A nice Sachs Dolmar 120 super came in , and the ol Mac hot saw has to wait.
I had her together last night, and counld not find the carb top plate.

I searched everywhere to no avail.

The parts box was double walled and when shook you could hear a part in there.

I found a lone needle bearing!

Aint gonna rush it, saw is about back to where I was last night.

I did take the opportunity to plug the compression release.

Guess i will reflect on the matter tonight, and give it the final push in the morning.

Yes the bench is a mess but I'm doing a batch build, sorta. All the above are pre-sold and I need to get them finished by Tuesday. Everything is cleaned, parts are pulled, just need to toss em all back together and dial em in.

That Mac has one of those two pole aluminum cased points eliminator thingys.

Anyone have the diagram of, or a brief explanation of which lead goes where?

 

[Wildman1024]

Sachsmo, the positive wire on the module goes to the coil. The same terminal as the kill switch and the points/condenser went to. The negative just goes right to ground. I usually attach the ground wire with the same screw I use to attach the module to the saw.

Very cool,



THANKS,

Let's see....


Right now there's a McCulloch 77 stripped way down. On the way out to put the carb diaphragms and such back in it, cut a couple of gaskets, and button it all back together.

Next to that is TWO McCulloch 790's (well RandyMac's IS a 790, mine is as of yet possitively unidenified). Gonna pull the muffler on mine and do the 'popsicle stick' pecission bore measurement method to see if it is in fact a 790. Then I'll swap the bar over to Randy's 790 and will see if it lights off.

Behind them is a somewhat stripped McCulloch 200 carcass. Not much going on with that. It's giving up the LH starter, and flywheel to my "790" so I can make a "790L".

Next to it is the 'barn fresh' Homelite Super-XL12 that my buddy gave me yesterday. Going to de-scuzz it a bit, drain/flush/refill the tank, spritz the carb with some mix, then see if it lights off too.

That's my afternoon at 'the saw bench'...

Just finished this one up the other day.

Boy Mark........................that saw doesn't look at all like they copied the XL12. No way......

I have a 'crunched' Echo CS451VL with a great P/C and many other good parts. No chain. May have an 18" or 20" bar for it. The saw's yours if you want it. Just pay shipping. I'll look for the bar if you want as well...

 

[350jeepcj5]

ill take it figure up shipping and let me know. ill pm you my address.

 

[sachsmo]

Right now, four saws with dull chains that need a good blow down.

Let's see what tomorrow bringsopcorn:

 

[blsnelling]

Lots of parts from the Christmas give away thread, awaiting being boxed up and shipped. It's nice to have a little more room on the shelves

 

[leeha]

My bench is now empty. Although i have a few
projects that need to be addressed. I also just
got in a Homelite 1130G that needs a piston and
maybe a cylinder but won't know till it's appart.

I am waiting for the carburetor kit for the Homelite 410 to arrive so I finished the Dolmar 166 / McCulloch SP118 as far as I could. It started sort of by surprise as I was trying to see if the carburetor (with new diaphragms installed) would pump fuel, I hadn't installed the muffler yet, that saw is loud and pumps out some serious pressure, cleared everything in front of it from the bench.

Since you asked, I am looking for the "brake spring" for the starter 113 166 081 and o-rings for the manual oiler.

I recently finished pulling a couple of Jonsered 49SP p&cs. Need to check out the 2171 oiler, then maybe start parting out the Titan 40.

 

[heimannm]

What's the story on the Titan? I have a 57 that I kind of like...

Yeah it looks quite a bit like one. The 60cc gives it a little bit more power then one though.

 

[madhatte]

Got a Husky 266/272 mongrel and a Jonsered 670 Champ on the bench right now.

Mark, I'm clearing out a few of my projects. I bought the Titan 40 as a project, but have since learned that chasing down parts for old saws sometimes isn't much fun. I had it out today to photograph it, had forgotten how dirty it was, I did get some photos but only after spending a lot of time cleaning it. I need to tear into it further to check it over more thoroughly. It probably has more value in parts than whole.

In the next couple of days I'm going to update one of my old threads with new photos.
