390 loses battle with log pile

[spike60]

Logger had a little mishap with his 390. Left it on the log pile, things got to moving and the saw kinda found itself in a place it shouldn't be. Surprisingly, this doesn't look terminal so far. Will have to have a closer look though.

DOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!


My wife ran over her cell phone yesterday, I'll see if she is looking for a matching saw!!!

Could have been worse...I hope you're able to get some more service life out of that bar.

Oh man! Hahaha never seen a 90 degree bar. Must be for cutting around a corner

I think you found the elusive right angle (or is that left angle) saw. Great for cutting in close quarters.

Yeah, it ought to be great for bucket work.

Ah heck, that will buff right out. Couple whacks with a 3lb hammer and some super glue, and she'll be throwing chips again.

Done that!! Drove by a camo hunting jacket on highway. Went back to pick it up. Didn't realize until thirty minutes later I dropped my ph out when I reached down to grab the jacket. Went back to the spot where I lost the jacket and sure enough the phone was scattered all over the highway...

Jacket- $30
Phone- $300
Ph numbers and pics lost- priceless


Bob, it's a miracle that the bar pad isn't cracked!!

Talk about cutting corners

 

[firefighterwolf]

I would have guessed the crankcase had cracked.

I like the custom clutch cover. I'm tired of mine plugging up when cutting with the grain. Think I'll open up mine like that.

I will offer my condolences but no sympathy as you knew better than to put that saw in a bad position. Shame shame and you will be deducted 5 points on overall "daily wrap up procedures" lol.

In all seriousness I hope there is no hidden damage as that took some force to snap that.

I bet that saw has just great sideways balance now....

Good intuition. Noticed a crack at the bottom of the flywheel; not sure how far it goes. Also needs a fuel tank. Starting to add up now.

I don't believe it is Spikes saw, or that it was he who did it!

Had an older Poulan get backed over by a D6 one time......

Hope it didn't ding up the tracks too bad, gets expensive to repair them caterpillar things...

 

[o8f150]

Nope but it sure put a hurt on the poor saw lol.

Hey guys, this is NOT my saw.

Logger/customer. But talk about "should have known better", he's a third, in a fourth generation logging family. These guys are really hard on saws. Brought me a bunch of carcasses and they are more beat up than blown up.
