This was a few years ago, when my wife came out to the garage the next morning she declared that I was officially insane. Then a few more years (and more madness) and I built the new building...

If anyone gets a complaint from their better half, just start showing them these kinds of photos.

Insane, maybe, but definitely neat.

My wife has to deal with both my insanity and disorganization to put it politely.

I couldn't solve the carburetor problem, but I have another one that fits with exceptions, on which I just changed the axes of the throttle and choke. From the original carburetor .... Tomorrow I will share the result.

I missed this post somehow Mark. I was getting concerned, knowing you would comment.
My wife Debbie just looked at your post and said "No, we are not going down that road.
Well this is after I got the truck unloaded today. I'll call it a good start.

Dang how do you guys find all this stuff? It took me forever just to find one 700 within 100 miles of me
More than once I have posted on my FB page that I was looking for parts saws and got free saws that I got running. The last was a 10-10S.
Marketplace locally is good also. There are some good deals with a lot of weeding. Ebay.......NO.
 
Looks like you are well on your way down the road...

Mark
Yes Mark. I have a good start getting it organized.
From the evidence I found today, in that pile of parts is five 8200's, plus one each 7-10, 555, CP70, SP81 all new to me.
I'm set form saws no matter how long I live.
 
Here is a bit of a head scratcher for you. As I am sorting through things I seem to become more confused by the way McCulloch changed parts and part numbers when they all served the same function. Consider the intake boot used on the various AV 10 Series models...so far I have identified at least 7 different part numbers and at least 4 different configurations for the same functional part.

And this week I found yet another permutation. See the difference between the two?

The good news is I have plenty of each type if anyone has a need.

With The Duke and others providing boots for the CP/SP125 type saws we should be set for a while.

Thanks Vinny
I didn't count the full wraps, but it's a bunch, not to mention the boat load of skid plates.

Mark
I know building any saw from the pile of parts is not going to be easy matching the parts to the model that I want.
I will try, one at a time.

Except Mark, if you remember my wife when you met her at the get together here in Oregon, she'd jump at the chance to help me, you, or anyone else here on the forum, to unload, clean, organize, and store, any type of haul that has to do with yellow and black, or white and orange.
And, she'd be the first one to mention that more storage space is needed, so the only logical answer is a bigger shop.

One thing that I often look for is unpainted cylinders on a McCulloch saw Clint, not always but sometimes it indicates that its a replacement cylinder and usually in good shape.
