My Meager Chainsaw Collection

[Freudianfloyd]

The first saw I ever bought. Paid $10 at a yardsale.
Mac 3615

Next saw is my favorite. My wife bought it for me for Christmas.
Husqvarna 450

Then homelite I bought off my dad as a backup saw.
Timber man 45

And the first new Stihl I have ever bought. I regret this one, and wish I would've went with a bigger saw.

Stihl MS271

And then a variety of saws I have picked up this past year at yardsales.

MS170 paid $35

MS211C paid $20

Poulan Pro - Given to me

Stihl 009 - $24

 

[Freudianfloyd]

The following saws I paid $12 for all of them total.

Jonsered 510SP

Poulan 306A

And 3 Echos a 315, a 351vl and an unknown model. I got the unknown running today but haven't messed with the other yet.

Anybody know what model this is?

All saws currently run except for 2 of the Echoes. I will try to get them up and running someday soon.

I know they arent professional saws, but I'm not a professional sawer. I have been keeping my eyes open for some pro saws.

That Poulan 306 is a real good fire wood saw.

You did good . I'd like to find an old metal Poulan and J Red at a yard sale . All I find at yard sales are clothes , broken worn out tools and glassware of no value along with other misc . junk. Sometimes I luck out and find something I can use but hardly ever do I find a saw that is worth the trouble to fix it.

Looks like you got yourself a nice hammer collection too!

You need to start them early. Looks like you will have a good worker one day. Nice saw too.

I have an addiction to hammers, saws, vises, blacksmithing tools, guns, ratchets, screwdrivers, and just about everything that goes in a garage.

Wow that’s awesome! I really like that top handle stihl.

One of my favourites that I let go was the 455 rancher, I was mentioning it in the regret selling thread. I will one day get another.

I am slowly growing mine. At the moment the only other saws I have for restoration and tinkering are the super pro 60, a poulan 3400, two poulan 3314’s. the 3314 I experimented with in tuning and port matching etc. Good learner saws cause they really aren’t worth much used and are widely available.

Thanks, but I knew the model of that one. This is the one I don't know.

That saw is awesome! I love the look of those big bow saws.

 

[s sidewall]

Thanks, me too. That's the second one to the collection. Found that one on CL for $80. Around twenty in minor parts. Carb kit, fuel lines and crank seals. Took more time stripping it down to clean it up than it did to repair it.

I have never actually seen a bow saw for sale.

Sometimes I luck out and find something I can use but hardly ever do I find a saw that is worth the trouble to fix it.

If I drive by a yard sale I'm always on the lookout for yard tools, hunting or fishing gear, chainsaws, or computer gear, but it is always knick-knacks and used clothes.
