    Any cool barn finds?

    A friend built this car about 20 years ago. He played with it for a couple years and lost interest. The NHRA certification is only good for 3 years. I was over his house a week or so ago. He mentioned he finally figured out, he just couldn't save them all, and was selling off a lot of his car...

    Want to Sell Sachs-Dolmar KMS4 Rotary

    For the advanced collector, my running, Sachs KMS4 Rotary. This saw had a few hours put on it back in the 70's. The original owner said it was too heavy and when he finished the project, never used it again. When I got it I primed it and it fired right off. The fuel tank looked new inside so I...

    Sold Homelite 550

    Cleaning out my tractor shed, found this one tucked in the back of a top shelf. Don't remember where I got it, or why I had it hidden in the shed. Should have been in the garage on display. Put a shot of mix in the carb and 6-8 pulls it fired up. Put half a tank of mix in it, primed it twice...

    Sold Stihl 08S

    Stihl 08S, has been on the shelf for years. Took it down and put a shot of mix in the plug, 3-4 pulls and it fired right up. 20" bar with almost new .404 chain. I didn't try filling the tank with mix. I'm just "Assuming" that after sitting that long it's going to need the carb gone through...

    Makita 14" circular saw.

    I decided to offer my mongo circular saw here before going to the trading post. You guys would probably appreciate it more. When I bought it I was told some Amish Timber Frame builders made it, or had it made, from a big chop saw. The used it for big joinery. I never used it and don't do much...

    Want to Sell Pair of Bashlin Aluminium Spikes

    My Dad bought these in the late 60's and used them into the late 80's. When he had them, one side snapped in half, and he had them professionally Heli-arced. When he retired in 86 I used them until about 2015 when I had my knee replaced and quit climbing. They do have a left and right, so you...

    Want to Sell Skil 1631/PM40

    Skil 1631, complete running 69CC saw. Very good shape. It was running great when I put it on the shelf 2-3 years ago. Took it down and put a shot of mix in the carb this morning, and fired right off. Acres says it came with a 15" or 24" bar. This one measures 16" of cutting surface, so I guess...

    Small disc chipper

    There is an auction this weekend and I can't make it, have a funeral. They have a pretty old, small, looks like a disc chipper. It's green with a Wisconsin 4 cylinder on it. By the pics I can read Model, and what looks like a "55", or "85". Anyone have an idea what it may be. If they have a...

    My cousin bought an Oregon 14hp splitter from his Kubota dealer 2 1/2 years ago. First year he split about 5 cord and loved it. Second year, the love joy went out, but was covered under warranty.

    Tuning Saws for Seasons

    I often read where guys tune saws with the change of seasons. When I raced cars we kept logs of temp, barometric pressure, humidity, and tuned the carbs appropriately. But, in 50 years of commercial tree work, and with 4 other family members owning tree companies, I have never, nor know of any...

    MERRY CHRISTMAS AND THANKS!

    Merry Christmas and happy New Years to all. But, a personal special thanks to all of the great guys here at AS, and over on HOH. A while back I started posting pics of the old saws I found at an old Stihl dealers in WV. So far I’ve bought 17 from him, all but one were over 70 cc’s, and I think...

    Stihl ?

    I'm not into old Stihls. My old saw guy has this in his $20 pile. The handle is cracked and has a little strap screwed on to hold it together. Other than that it looks pretty complete with 2 dogs and a bar. It was dark in the garage and my cell was so low the flashlight wouldn't come on. I...

    DK2 Kinetic Splitter

    Anyone ever use one? The seal let loose in my Huskee 22 ton. I was at TSC trying to get a seal kit or new cylinder. While I was there I was looking over the Kinetic splitter they’ve had sitting out front for at least a year. It’s been sitting long enough it’s faded from orange to almost pink. I...

    The best plant stakes!

    My wife's friends are moving to Florida. They called the other day and asked if I wanted a 20 gallon air compressor and a bunch of hand tools. Of course I did. They literally filled the back of my pickup full to overflowing with hand tools. Some brand new, some old and broke, and everything in...

    Update, Huskee 22 ton.

    I think I posted it here. My Huskee was leaking hydraulic oil from around the seal on the ram. It didn't seam to leak at all while using it, but when I let it sit the whole trough of the beam would be full of oil, like it was still under pressure after I shut it down. I went to TSC and they...
