I have a lot of gear and direct drive sprockets for all make of saws in the 50,60,70's. Also have a 5 gal. bucket of 7/16 direct drive sprockets. I imagine the only place for them would be the junkyard!!!

You may want to sort them out (if you can) and then post some pics. You'd be surprised how many people would probably contact you to get their old chainsaws back in operation. Heck, I know I would have!...:cool2:
Update on the old Strunk I've been working on:
- Chain drive sprocket is back on, as is the bar, and the new chain. Chain is a little tight when I rotate it by hand, but it doesn't 'stick' like it use to, so that's a positive.
- Have been working on cleaning out the gas tank of the old shellac deposits left over from the prior owner's not draining the gas when he put it the saw up for storage. Fuel petcock was plugged solid, and the tank had a good layer of shellacing in it - finally got all that cleaned out the other night. Will be installing an in-line fuel filter between the tank and the carb to catch any little pieces I may have missed.
- Doing some research on the Tillotson carburetor as I suspect that will be the next area I'll have to rebuild / clean out. Any thoughts on parts / gaskets for this part of the project?
Appreciate the help and encouragement!
