What's on your bench

[Pioneer]

Well the Mtd came apart quite easily, modular design it seems. Just needs a new grommet for the oil tank and a return line for the fuel purge bulb. Quality of the castings, stampings and plastic seems pretty decent, no chrome on the bar plates but blued steel. That's a first for me. The engine is not clamshell, but split case style.
Oregon A041 bar mount, type 91 chain.

In this case I would have to say that the saw is just as good as any homeowner saw you could buy at a big box store, the Chinese are really catching up in quality.

I have a few MTD made pieces of machinery that work hard and refuse to die.

Lombard Comango on my bench....... oh, and a couple customer saws but no pics of those.

Awesome!

I think you might have me beat for oldest saw on the bench.

Un 346 XP con mucha mucha mucha mierda

 

[Yotaismygame]

Makita 6421 with a nwp big bore for a port job. So far the plating seems just like oem. Overall it’s a oem looking cylinder

 

[lostone]

New long block for the Pro Mac 555.

The Mtd is back together, no problems except the throttle cable and oil line were a little fussy. Started 3rd pull, oils great, runs fine now that I leaned it out from the stupidly rich settings it had. About 12 lbs with bar and chain.

About to rebuild a little Husky 136. Choke plate screw fell out and it sucked it in. Not my saw but it ran fine for a while after then started leaning out and couldn't give it enough fuel. Pulled intake and found cracked piston. Getting a cheap aftermarket kit, hope it holds.

Awesome!

Not even close to my oldest. I'm all vintage all the time with my personal saws. I think im up to around 40 or so in the collection.

 

[93Dakman!]

Ugh. Overwhelmed with repairs at the moment.

2 of my saws:
2094 and 910

Others saws:
2145, 2150 jubilee, 2150, 2036, 2040, 2051, 2159c, 2240s, Olympyk 261

6 on the floor are ready to go:
2171, 2165, 2045, 2045, 2054, 239t

Hopefully I can get the 9 finished this year with all the holiday rush, I have 18 others to do.

I now have a 2003 Honda Pilot with a bad head gasket in the garage. Yay

[MacAttack]

Awesome! Gonna take a closer look later.

Love the old Macs and Homelites.

I think one of my bucket list saws is a Homelite XL12

 

[lostone]

I would like to get a Homelite super XL automatic to run next to my Mac 555 and see which I prefer.

 

[Woodslasher]

While I haven't run a 555, I have run a Homelite Super XL with 1/2 inch, hack jobbed carbide chipper chain that cut pretty well. It sat for probably 20+ years and ran fine once I filled up the tank with mix and gave it a few shots of gas down the carb.

I like that workbench!

 

[93Dakman!]

I like that workbench!

Thanks!

Lots of 2x4's. Plus a skin of 1/4" luan plywood on the top.

Is it a bird's nest above the bench?
