Seems like the circular saw attachment would be more suited to a top-handle saw. Hmmm... maybe I should build a MS200T circular saw.

This is a fantastic thread. I love those Homelite XL100's. I once saw a skuzzy, homeless-looking guy riding a bicycle powered by a 'modified' Stihl 041. The bike was loaded down like a mule, wiith bags and crap hanging all over the place. The thing moved, but sounded tired. I always wanted to pull him aside, buy him some Micky-D's, and take a few photos of his ride. Never saw him again after that one day though, and I was busy driving my family somewhere at that time and couldn't stop...

great thread, i love finding other uses for a chainsaw or ww powerheads. i've made bikes, trolling motors, a chainsaw powered weed whacker. that's how i got into chainsaw collecting. i started getting chainsaws that were too nice to tear down and turn into something else. this is my favorite bike, it does 40mph and has a ton of torque. it will buck you...lol

I had a few big, heavy non-running Mac's in the shed that would have made excellent boat anchors, but I quit fishing

I've made ... trolling motors
Remember the James Bond movie in Southeast Asia (Thailand?) with the long shaft boat motors?

Send those 'boat anchors' west. Don't forget the bars...
That's cool Cliff. Is it yours? You really do have one interesting collection. I think the next time I head to Southern California I'm going to visit your place instead of Disneyland...
I've seen IPL's for Homelite high pressure firefighting pumps powered by Super 650 and 750 saw engines. Those would be a hoot...

A couple years ago my cousin and i built a scooter with a powerhead from a old Echo weed eater for a motor.. we make a jackshaft to split the gear ratio and stretched it to make it look like a chopper.. built it for under $100 and it still runs today... here it is with my cousin about to take a ride..
Watch the TV show Swamp People ? Most of them use Go-Devil-type propulsion for their boats. Cool stuff. Not sure if I could man-up enough to squeek out a living down there, but I like to think I could.
