    Ripsaw Support

    I'd see if you can get the spur to match up with one of the bar bolts. You might be able to make a customized adapter for the other stud. But really I think you need a 088 :clap:

    Kinda looks like it may be driven by a spur sprocket. Edit. Too late

    I've ordered the dog eared one before. I just can't find the number for it. The one I did that had a bad oring, it was all completely gone. I had one with a bad case gasket causing oil to get into the crank. I think I could see bubbles coming from the seam through the oil fill hole.

    Stihl 075 oil pump seal question. Will this work? Please look!

    I've spent the last 20 mins trying to find you a part number but can't seem to find one in my notes. I'd post in the sticky because those guys will be able to help. http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/050-051-075-076-info-thread.169996/page-39#post-5621095

    Wood flying out of the splitter

    When I built my splitter I was given a used PTO pump so I could run it off off of my tractor. Well One of the seals on the pump was bad and it was sucking air. It just happened to be the year I had some 3foot diameter Ash to split. It would throw them 6-10 feet every time. I eventually...

    Twin powerheads double ended bars

    So is it worth it. Do you have any timed runs with one powerhead verses two?

    Twin powerheads double ended bars

    I can't say anything from experience. It's been debated to death. A engineer friend I talked with said it would only be as good as the weakest saw. It didn't seem worth it to me. twice the gas for little gains.

    Ash wood is almost pink or red?

    :thisthreadisworthlesswithoutpictures: I've seen some shades of pink. I haven't seen red.

    Upright BS sled to mill small logs

    F would be the simplest option. I usually free hand a flat bottom and then cut slices. The slices are all but perfect. Wasting some of the material. I'm always trying to figure a way to recover more material for the same time. I'll see about making a hybrid of your's. I do have a ton of...

    Upright BS sled to mill small logs

    I see. That makes more sense. If i'd make one I'd try to figure a way to cut the entire log into slabs. I'd probably use screws from the side.

    Upright BS sled to mill small logs

    So I've been thinking about your BS sled. I'm assuming your having to re position the log quite often. I'm wonder if there might be a way to mount the log once then you only have to move it over to the blade.

    Upright BS sled to mill small logs

    Nice work as always. I may have to give this a try out of some unistrut. The pictures of thew olive aren't working for me.

    I have a few chain brakes. I mostly mill so I only really need one. I might be inclined to part with one. One is used and the other is NOS and I think it's still in the bag. with the needed parts also.

    Help with numbers off STIHL bar.

    So the bar tips vary in height depending on the sprocket teeth? My bar is in great shape I just need a tip. I can't imagine it's worn that much by the way it looks.

    Help with numbers off STIHL bar.

    Yeah I tried a the 3003 650 2551 and it looks like it might work if I grind 3/32 off of each side. I'd rather just buy the right tip if it's out there somewhere. I also like the look of this old bar and don't want to scrap it if I don't have to.

    I've always assumed mine was a super because it had the Ws-26 carb. I also been using the Ts760 filter because it does seem to work a lot better. I never felt like the stock filter worked very good especially for the fine's that I got when milling.
