Hey bob,,, wouldn't it of been a lot easier to just go buy the bloody thing if you want to. I agree with JED1124, its your money so end of story. No need to go on and on with this thread with members getting stired up.
There are hundreds of old 90's and 70's kicking around in australia, you simply need to look.
BTW,,, the bottom end i have spare is stuck so the previouse owner has let the weather onto it. It is almost complete in the bottom end but not realy much use as is.

Isnt this what forums are for discussion, origionally i asked for no product bashing lasted a few seconds i wanted an answer of how the product stood the test from real people
not some just picking on ching saws for the sake of it, a lot of that go's on here i'm sure and yes i will more than likely buy the bloody thing because its a new item or items
I still may need a few old bits to complete the saw but given a little time it will get itself together

china made gear is cheap right. The way i see it, if you look after it you'll get the job done with it !? and you can save your money to buy your shelf queens, or pay your bills, or for most of us put food on the table ...its win win
We all love our Aussie, German, Swiss made gear and we all know its better quality and also a lot more expensive, Too expensive at times.
As we all like to keep our money in our own back yard, and keep jobs for locals, and support our country/community and we mostly do, but in reality china is the cheap box store on the corner, and we all shop there when we need to save a buck.

You took your own thread off topic, mate, so don't go getting all pissy when others reply to your thoughts. And I'm with the others who suggest you shut up, buy to damn ChiCom stuff and tell us how it works. :monkey:
As for all that world domination bull####, I'll let you geniuses solve that problem. It's 7 p.m. on a Friday, and I've spent the last four days solid working on a renovation project. Time for some BEER!

Well yes sir
Would you support the local burglar fraud and thief ?
Thats what your doing when you rationalize buying a cheap ass knockoff . Just to save a bit of $. The scum that steal and produce these are the same kind of folks that would loot your house and rape your wife.
Don't overlook the fact that you are also supporting slave labor of children.... hope yall really enjoy your high quality china saw you got such a bargain on.
AND , somewhat sideways related ;... I have reservations now about buying a legit husky after dealing with this knockoff crap , is it fair ? No . But it is how it is.
If you have an ounce virtue you wouldn't even pose the thought.
F*** these dirty thievin no skill havin , R & D ripoff chicoms.. right in their collective bloody commie asses.
The complcit domestic pricks that look the other way and allow the imports can get some too.

You can still get a Stihl 070 in certain countries but it is the ms720 now. As to chinese products I ran across a bunch of military rifle sight knock offs but got them for free to test and none lasted longer than a few rounds, I'm not sure on their chainsaws but if someone were nice enough to donate one for me to test I would be more than happy to run it though its paces and see just how well it is built. As to America taking a back seat in manufacturing it is only because we imported your socialism and let it ruin a good thing and now most Americans are to dumb to notice what is happening. I must also say that there a few American saws that were made in the 70's that are still the best saws made. BTW it has been a while since Australia has manufactured a decent saw, and don't make me mention a certain movie staring Paul Hogan.
Why are we fighting on who's country is better than who's, we are all going to be speaking chinese before to long anyway.

make a chainsaw! hell we dont even make shoes or bloody clothes here anymore how are we gonna make a chainsaw and even if we did it would cost about 3 grand for a 50cc saw after the unions drive the wages up to 85 bucks an hour plus penalties, 8 weeks holiday plus 12 weeks maternity leave, 2 rdo's a month, plus wet days off even though you work inside! which means we could possibly produce 175 saws per year:hmm3grin2orange:

Us yanks are right behind you.
You can still buy an 090AV in most south american and african countries plus probably others as well that dont have epa or safety eg chainbrake. But what im curious about is why not use original 090 parts for this saw seeing as you can still get them from dealers in australia.

"called into the stihl dealer and good news you can still get all the parts for 090AV's, i have about $500 worth coming ..thay also gave me a copy of a parts manual,it covers 090, 090AV and 090G...anyways here are a few pics dummy assembled"
That is off course unless something has changed over the last year since this post was made in april of 2011.

Here's a common educational problem for both Oz and the U.S. that affects our manufacturing skills.
"At Weber Display & Packaging Inc., process manager Chris O'Hearn tells applicants that he'll teach them how to operate machines that fold, score, and label the boxes his Philadelphia company processes. But they have to be able to pass - using pencil and paper - a 26-question math and reading quiz, with questions like this one: "Multiply 3.6 times 9.6."
O'Hearn estimated that 10 percent don't even try. An additional 30 percent can't pass the quiz, even with unlimited time. "I don't think there's anything difficult about it," he said. "But if they can't do this, we know they won't be successful on the job."

So Bob, is this crank going to be for that nice 090 race cylinder and carb you have bought? I hope not....and after all the Stihl bashing you have done, why the hell are you doing it....after all, Mac first, last and every time right?
