my house is turning into a small museum of older jonsereds... so far my running 70e has been joined by a "please fix me i'm missing easy parts" 80 and a running 111s. might fill in the gap with a 90 if one shows up.

saw troll has got me thinking of a couple newer ones to add to the pile.

saw total up to 8... when i got here it was 3 1/2


should i sell any like i keep telling her i will.

"oh hon... if i get it for this much and fix it then it will be worth that much.. "
 
If you keep them all red and scatter the collection a bit around the house, then you can get to a point where she has no idea how many saws there actually are. This is a trick I learned from women, they do it with shoes.

I quit that line awhile ago,just tell her it's better then a "Crack" habit.

too funny, thats what I do, My wife has no idea how many saws I have. They are in 3 different spots:jester:
 
I just got bit by this bug a few weeks ago , 1970's J-red's. I got my first one running a 621, did a little cutting with it, I was impressed with it, much better saw than Homelite and Macs of the same vintage.

I don't know what it is about those saws weather it is the name, the color or what but have always lusted after them since I first seen one and finally got to run one. Wished I hadn't of waited so long.

They are an awsome saw. Great power, not too heavey,(would like to know the wieght and HP) good AV. They don't look or act like a 25 year old saw. My Dad bought one new in 79 or 80. It screams with a 24" bar on it. He still uses it regularly. I tried to find a new air filter for it about a year ago with no luck. Parts are getting harder to come by.

Here is some info, there is a misprint there, the cc number should be 87, not 86......

It was one of the very least "pure" jonsereds designes to be released, after E-lux takeover.
