Stump the pics look good, can't wait to come see it this spring.
Hedgrow the saw is looking great. You still have some time left to finish that saw. :rock:
 
It's a Central Machinery model #45861 9X20. Bout the perfect size for what I need to do with it........

Have you been able to use it yet? If you have, what are your first impressions on it's quality? I've looked at them and have wondered about their quality. How's the backlash in the lead screws? Are the ways tight/smooth? How's the power? Do you use it for popups?

Not that I need a lathe.....(I have a 6" SB and a 10" (forget the brand)...)
 
Oh Jon....:msp_rolleyes:

My resident carb expert Todd picked just the right carb for it from my can of spares... The guy is just a carb Guru...

Very nice work Matt. I'm glad it came together, and as for you running it, I wouldn't mind one bit. Heck I threw in a loop of chain when i shipped you the saw on the off chance someone could kick in a bar.
After seeing how it turned out I feel compelled to buy more raffle tickets........LOL!!!!!

VERY NICE! :bowdown: You do great work! :msp_thumbsup: I may have to get some more tickets too!
 
Very nice job on the 075. I love those saws. Alot of torque, just set it on a big nasty log and let it do the work. Man I hope I win that thing.
:msp_thumbsup:
 
Stumpy, I need a list of the saws that you have already replaced... I am trying to cook something up for you, and don't want to give you a duplicate of something you have... :cheers:

It won't be a new Husky or Stihl, but it might be one of the good 80's early 90's saws. (no, not a PM610 or one of its brothers, I promise)

And it'll be ported, by me. I do wish to know the opinions of someone that does have a real good hand in porting. :cheers:

The South Bend lathes are quite usable for chain saw work and there are a lot of them around ( some have lots of wear ) but you can still do some decent work.
