the official arborist site work saw build off

[MacLaren]

Well Id make a reasonable offer then anyways. Worse thing they can do is say no, or counter.. They probably gave 150$ for it anyways.

Thats exactly what I thought they had gave for it as well little possum.

Ive got family in the pawn business.. Ive watched them pay literally nothing for somethin, then put it on the rack for 300$ a few weeks later.

Easily repaired faults are a good negotiating tool, and I don't feel guilty exaggerating a needed repair when dealing with pawn shops.

On the flip side, a lot of pawn shops won't let you start removing parts for fear of sabotage. "Hey, I can't get this saw to run, you can't get it to run (because I disconnected on/off switch). I'll give you (some small precentage of the asking price) for it."


The same pawn shop also has 346XP E-Tech for $299.00, but it has weak compression (the decomp seems to work).

offer them 250,,, and go from there!!! as is from what I'm reading

Take your t handle27 torx or ratchet and do it on the counter right in front of them,, four screws, 5 minutes,,, does it have a bar&chain best thing is if is bargining wise if it has some scoring on the piston,,
Bring some mix up there and see if it runs

Work? It should blow the others away.

You'll just need to fork out a little extra for some white paint, and glue the caps in place.

this go round will be 28'' bars in 24x24 hard wood cant. that will make it more interesting

 

[indiansprings]

Maybe Hedgerow and I can bring you over some 24x24 cants of seasoned Hedge, I know where there are some mighty big hedge trees. Someone will have to square them up for us. I don't have any milling equipment.
It would take some pressure off the timers, it would give them just a little more time to focus. They'll be hard as Stumpy's (you know what I mean) errrr, well wood pecker lips. A real stout saw might even break a chain in the stuff.

 

[SawGarage]

I'm probably going to need some help finding a 460. There are not on eBay that often and I've never seen one around these parts.

+1 I have NOT really seen one around either....

Sure if thats what you want to run!!!!

LOL!!!!

 

[mdavlee]

So who's got all the 046/460s laying around to supply for this buildoff? I might have found one if it lasts until next week when I get back home.

 

[tlandrum]

I am very pleased to hear this Terry. This time don't go in the red. There is not a single person involved that wants to see you spend your own hard-earned money. It's not right, it's not fair. If everyone that enters a saw coughs up $100, there should be $1500-$2000 to play with. (and everyone can have a rib-eye, maybe 2 for Stumpy lol). If there is money left over, it can go towards the next GTG. Just my thoughts bro.

 

[parrisw]

I'm willing to donate a build for someone, however, I've never done a 460 before, just so you know.

Will

 

[tlandrum]

you will be just fine Will, its still a 2 stroke and i know theres plenty of numbers floating around for a 460 or you can pm me and ill tell you what i use and take it from there with your own spin on it

 

[mdavlee]

Good to see you're going to join in Will.

 

[firefighter33]

I have it posted in the swap meet. But will also post here. I've got a good running 394 to trade for a 046,460. If anyone is interested in trading.
