finally showed up. This model made in the UK and has 125cc's
Not in bad shape, I gave it bath and she looks pretty good.
Needs a new starter cup to get it going.

Hey Lee-

That's awesome! I'll bet it's a heavy sucker...

I saw a cherry one on ebay.de go for $800 a couple years ago...

Those big Danarms are the best saws to ever come out of the UK for sure.

Thanks Jacob, I'm into this one including shipping
for less the $200.00 from the UK.
It's really not that heavy or at least as heavy as others.
What do you think about the starter cup.
I don't have any to compair except for a Homelite
and it won't work.

The starter cup looks pretty straight forward. One could easily be made from a David Bradley starter cup from the models with the Power Products AH 47 engine. The bottom can be machined out from using the one central flywheel nut mount to the three opposing mounts on your Danarm cup. Fatguy could probably do it with one eye closed and a beer in one hand.

Lee, That looks to be in very nice condition, I bet you cant wait to have it running

 

[Jacob J.]

Wayne- that reminds me. I need the output stub shaft diameter for your 271. I'm still trying to find you a .404 sprocket...

No worries, I'll measure it & send you a pm later, I'm happy I will be picking up a
yellow Dolmar Tomorrow

Ahha, I saw that one, good score for shore....

 

[Arrowhead]

Lee, That's a great looking saw. That's the first I have ever heard of them. Good luck on the starter cup. Its a long shot, but it looks a lot like the one older Tecumseh engines had. If its the proper diameter, you may be able to mod one to work.

Well done on the Danarm saw Lee - it looks to be in really good shape after your cleaning efforts. I hope you can resolve the starter cup issue and get it up and running again.

Nice saw.

Regards,

Chris.

good looking saw Lee, congrats.


Looks like she has a decomp, which mine hasn't.

My impression of the saw was it's the worst shaker I have had in my hands so far. After a run I couldn't feel my fingers anymore.
Let's hear your story once you get her running...

 

[Wildman1024]

That's a pretty sick saw. I bet that thing has a serious bark

 

[GASoline71]

Beauty saw!

The one thing I love about the 1960's and earlier saws... is just how "mechanical" they look. Brutal lookin' machinery for the task they were designed for.

The term "built to last" springs to mind ! I hav'nt seen any Danarm's that size before so look forward to hearing how it runs.

 

[leeha]

Today was a good day.
I was able to spend a bit of time on
this ole girl and in stall the starter cup
that "Fatguy" Nik Made for me. It worked
perfect. I also had to clean the points and
now she's a runner.

Many Thanks To Nik, With his help it's a runner.
