I need one of you to buy it so i dont do something i shouldnt

Holding back funds for upcomming swapmeet--I always take my wagon and mostly it gets filled with saws,old Coleman stoves,lanterns,tools,old boat motors etc.----- Forgot cast iron cookware/dutch oven + any thing old rusty needs repair machine thats cheap.. One time bought a old briggs and straton vertical cast iron rope crank engine--Boy I needed that!!!! LoL

 

[46 Poulan]

I wish I had 10 saws to compare haha, I don't even have 5 good running saws to pick from.

The only two runners I have are my Stihl 056 Super and My Super XL Automatic

But he has the best work bench around says the guy with 2 saws apart on a 36 X 36 square--No envy!!

Because it's a Poulan and we all know I can have that around my house. Lol. Just kidding but in all reality I'm not a big Poulan guy so Kensie is buying it off me with a couple others.

I'm not big on Poulan because they just don't tickle my fancy. I don't have anything against them just not my thing. So no one has a heart attack lol

I can't handle any Stihl being listed after a Poulan. Just send them all to me. I'm in outrage. I'm about to run outside and strip my clothes off and set myself on fire over this

I love bow hunting. Just got into it last year. Haven't had the chance to take anything yet as my kids take most my time but I love going out into the woods with a bow

I've got a bow, I love shooting it but it's not very often I actually go hunting.

Hahaha not something y'all probably want to see. Well the fire part I wouldn't put past y'all but the ripping clothes off might be a bit much for y'all guys

Hunting is another peaceful activity to me. Like working on a saw or filing a chain. Just something to relax. I don't have to kill something every time.

 

[Kensie1988]

I went several times this year, didn't get anything but it's nice being in the quiet, as long as your not slowly freezing to death haha

Yeah I'm just interested in the fire.......

I figured. That's the mark of true friendship

@Boomer 87, so the HS carb you said you had, are you going to make sure it runs first? It would help me out a great deal knowing that it's a good running carb when I put it in, that way I know it's the saw if something still manifests itself after I put that one on.

Aquired these in the last few months:

McCullough "Mac 35"
David Bradley (Sears) U4D
Homelite Super Wiz 55

As far as my Dad knows, the MAC was the first power saw my Papaw ever had. He died a few years ago and my dad didn't know all the details, but I'm assuming it was used until the spark plug threads stripped out. Dad said the next saw they bought was a STIHL 041....which was stollen by some coon hunters when I was little I'd love to have that one back. Anyway, it sat in an old "cellar house" overtop of their cellar for the past 40+ years, until I got it out and fixed it back in the summer. It sounds awesome!

When I posted the video of the MAC running, my buddy messaged me and asked if I wanted the David Bradley, so obviously I picked it up as soon as I got the chance. Cleaned up nice with the pressure washer. Haven't been able to get it to run yet. It "hit" one time and jerked the chord out of my hand and wouldn't hit again. Then it leaked the entire tank of gas all over the place. I'm assuming it's got some carb issues.

The Homelite bow saw came all the way from South Carolina, close to Myrtle beach, to southern Ohio. My mother in law lives down there and is all the time finding old stuff in barns, yard sales and the recycling center, so I told her to keep an eye out for old saws. She gave $30 for it I think. Haven't got to mess with it yet, but the piston looks good! I've got the chain for it too, but the bar is badly worn....not sure what I'm going to do there.

Awesome saws. I like saws a lot but the history behind them makes them so much more awesome
