Aluminum ball bearings.
Less weighted, last more time, much power!

Just choked On my smoke. Had to wash her down with a beer.
Crankshafts, how about the other issues these saws and kits have.
They don’t seem to improve on small issues Tho.
I am not knocking them either, you get what you pay for. I personally liked the challengeS they gave me.

Woops, the ones the kids made from plasticine in the Kindergarten section of Farmertec daycare must have somehow slipped past "quality control".

Quite a few rod bearings going south. Did have one guy with a busted piston have a carb nut go down the intake..they were sending him a new saw but then he came forward and admitted he had removed the intake and apparently didnt snug the nuts down...

There’s a reason I’m buying older quality saws. I’m not going blue yet, maybe Alpina italian saw in yellow.

Remember those plastic cars and trucks we played with from japan. Give them time.

I'm saturated with German Stihls for life, NOS parts too.

These Chinese threads are entertainment!!!!!

All stuff that fails is rebar in cement. My last castiron rebar was a 400 small block chevy that had a cracked block. Heads and all are inside a 24” x 24” pillar for a shed.

Those old eager beavers and homie lights keep on running. Back when we made real steel not the casted crap.
