20NK on Husky ported 262xp Good discussion! Glad to see some interest in this set up. I cant say enough good things about running the lighter .325, 20 inch bar and 20NK chain. Ive never had a breakag----,boring, felling, limbing, bucking. For a small guy like me, weight and sharpness are...

Homelite 360 poor oiling HI Guys, My first homelite project , a 360 nice shape, runs very well. Bar that came with it was burned. Saw oils good, but its not getting to the chain. It looks to me like it needs a bar plate on the outside against the cover to contain the oil?? IPL for this...

325 NK on Husky 262xp ported, 20" NK bar-- wow!! Ive been using Bailey's (Carlton I believe) chisel 325 NK for several years now on 026 and Husky 51 with great results in Ponderosa and Doug Fir. I fell and buck and use it around the sawmill, any place a 20" bar gets the job done. No...

You have the soul of an artist Andre-- my homemade one cant hold a candle to it---- but I did paint it fancy metalflake grey!! good work as always !! I will look for that 394 piston tomorrow-----

Yeah but I have this affliction---- all these parts lying around--- I ought to able to use them SOMEWHERE!!!

Now I know!! Thanks, wont even try it!!!! Good info. AL

Is this gonna work? Looks like it might if bring drum along? any body try this? Issues with seal or oring on slinger? Part numbers are different, but thot it might work. Im not gonna hop the 385 or push it too hard..... tnx

Tnx ultra for great pics! Ive got a couple 288's running and use for felling etc from time to time-- built to last- reminds me of my 038 as far as durability. Ive got a 281 with all new bearings and piston that Im gonna have to part with:mad:

Great pics, one Im working on had no av,s in front, just gone. If you look into the holes where the little buggers thread in on your picture, it is smooth.. there never was anything threaded into the hole-- maybe it just lay in there and when it wore out just fell out. Thats what confused me...

Thanks CISCO, Guess it uses same as rear---sure as heck doesnt show on ipl, but glad somebody knows!! Thot I knew those saws pretty well, but not that well!!! tnx again Need to post some pics of my hydraulic bandmill I built-looked at yours several times.

Still no number Thanks, but same IPL I have --- still dont see the part shown or a number Am I blind??

Ive got a dozen IPL for these saws and nowhere do they show the two front av buffers that go between the tank and handle. Not referring to the big spring mounted externally.. My handle does not have a place for a threaded av-- hole on handle part is smooth, like a bolt goes thru it. Im...

Lots of confusion on chain 325x063 -- Bar is prob a hair lighter, but doesnt wear as well as rails are thinner!! To be truthfull I never did see a use for that gauge!! Might as well go with 3/8x050 and get a good long lasting bar. Now give me a 325x050 gauge in a narrow kerf and...

Here we go!!!! Gonna have to agree with Knight on this one--- properly designed 325 chain cutting a more narrow kerf has got to use less energy-- simple phyisics guys-- Having said that, you still need the right chain speed for what you are cutting. Its pretty simple these days on most saws...

154 SE photos Mild porting and muffler mod, new piston 180 psi--Holy Cow it revs out fast!! Will check the psi again now that its run a bit. Stock carb for now......

Rainy Morning in New Mexico-working on some saws........... Questions refer to husky 154. Cylinder on this one was not perfect but cleaned up decent. Expanded the exhaust port a little-- left the cylinder end alone, but opened up and polished the muffler end. Did the same to the input...

Nobody seems to know why-- I guess it just got away from them. I live in a little remote community in New Mexico. I guess maybe nobody had the resources? A tree company came in years ago and took off everything down to about 30 feet, but they were afraid to fell it, and its was way too big...

Big Bad Cottonwood Since you guys are talking about big bars------ Thot you might want to see a big bar that actually does some work. Cottonwood tree I felled just before Christmas. 30 feet around base. First pic shows a couple of guys smiling after getting the beast down. Second photo...

you mean your stihl tryin to split that case!! We are a little more subtle here in New Mexico---try not to use brute force and awkwardness...... Im afraid I have more Stihls than Husky. Im not stuck in mud on one brand like a lotta you guys!! Gotta keep an open mind when you live "out...

Boonies of New Mexico ie Glenwood NM Hi Romeo Glenwood is an hour north of Silver City, on US 180---SW corner of New Mexico. My place adjoins the Gila National Forest of about 3.5 million acres of TREEEEEES -----that nobody cuts.........I occasionally get a hazard tree permit to keep my...
