Not sure what the one on my parts saw looks like, but I'll take a look in the AM, and it's yours if it's any good and you need it. Mine's pretty much bare case now, so I'll be able to see how it comes apart pretty easy for ya.
This is the old Homey that followed me home today. Not sure yet if it's a 1000 or 1020, not an auto oiler.
ARRRGH! Pic uploading isn't working for me right now, and it's time for a nap, so I'll give a quick rundown on it and try again with pics tomorrow.
The seller moved here from Idaho years back, and this saw came back with him. It started life as a logger's saw, and the guy gave me the name, but dang if I can remember it right now. The seller looked me up on here, and said he's registered here, maybe he will chime in with the rest of the story. (I have enough trouble listening to people when I'm just talking to them, when I'm looking over a possible new toy, a lot of it comes through my brain as blah, blah, blah :biggrin: ) At any rate, it's been taking up space mostly since he moved here, he's got a newer saw for the limited cutting he does.
It shows the scars from being a work saw, but it seems pretty good mechanically. Compression is real strong, it's complete, all the levers, knobs, etc. work, the bar (shorter than I thought from the pics, 24") is pretty good yet, just needs a little dressing. It's got a Homelite (I think) chain - H in a box logo on the drivers, .404. It's got a rim sprocket on it. Fuel tank empty and clean, the oil tank looked to have some ATF left in it. It looks good enough that I'm gonna dump a little mix in tomorrow just to see if it'll run, and right now I wouldn't bet against it.
The not-so-good: There's a weld (JB Weld maybe) repair on the bottom left crankcase half, but it looks to have been that way for ages, and is probably just as solid as it looks. The bottom of the wrap handlebar has some pretty significant truck rash, with the tube partly worn away on one side. It's missing one attaching screw there, but I didn't look real close to see if it's broken off or just rattled out. The muffler is rotted out in several spots (case and cover). That's all I found so far.
If it doesn't fire off when I try it tomorrow, it will head to the project shed till I get more time (and a couple other in process saws finished), but it's gonna probably be the next one I tackle - it's got plenty of potential compared to some of the future projects in the shed - I might spend more time cleaning some of those saws than this one will take to run (hopefully)
Third time's the charm with pics I guess. They're not really great, taken down in the wood room with poor lighting and flash. I'll try for better ones tomorrow.
