064s, those are like super outdated right?

I'll do you a favor and give you $100 for the pair. Put it towards a new model.


In all seriousness, Damn, those are some fine looking saws!!

Nice! Who ported it?

Jmssaws ported the jug. But the rest of the build is mine from the bearings on up.

The jug was intended for a different saw....but I shoehorn it into this one. Meteor piston ....nachis ....new seals filter etc etc. Starts nice ...but no wood to cut.

i do love an 064, new old stock or beat to death, just a great saw saw

Me to Dave, i have been looking at Keiths for three yeasrs now and I had a chance to do a kittle horetrading for one.. been rounding up parts since.. down to a 3/4 wrap and a piaton..

Just finished a 066 now its a B&S cast iron stationary born on April 1952. I was told it ran a log splitter.

 

[ML12]

Cut off saws..... Dad needed one for some concrete work, said I would find him one on Craigslist. I did, $40, but needing new everything essentially (the pile of Partner parts).



Then driving home 3 days later I found the stihl in a pile of lawnmowers on the side of the road with a 'free' sign on it! just needed a new top end, and the air filter!



Needless to say these two have kept me busy for the past 2 weeks.

I also got a Remington SL-9 in the free pile, it needs to be cleaned badly. and have the gas dumped. its a nice green color.

Just finished tonight, I'll dump fuel in it and crank it over tomorrow night. Good spark, the thing should p urr.

I've got my 272xp on my bench after finally getting all the parts to put it back together. However, the crank I got is bent and I didn't notice until I had the cases assembled. So it's coming back apart and will have to wait until I get another crank. Then it's off to a certain farm boy for some grinding and squishing.

Got my new (used) crank today. This time I put it on my v blocks and checked it lol. Got the bearings on it and its now in the freezer and cases are in the oven. Unless by some divine intervention, I will have the cases assembled in an hour or so. That's as far as we go tonight - got an o-ring ordered that should be here tomorrow.

That's going to be a great looking 272. Got mine to purr a little, need to get it to a tach this weekend. Tried to post a little video off my phone, but ether it's not aloud or I'm not smart enough.

 

[Sepia]

Thanks. It's really just a mishmash of parts at this point in time. I bought it blown up, installed oem piston cylinder, used it for 15 years and then the crank brg let go. So now it has aftermarket cases, and parts from a couple different saws. Hopefully it runs well when I'm done.

Your 048 looks good! Vids here have to be a certain format or they won't load. You can always load onto youtube then link to it here.

 

[Roygor]

Thanks for the compliment and the video information. Sounds like you have been doing this for awhile, so bet that 272 is in good hands. Off to the next build,036.

 

[Sepia]

Well it ain't gonna win 1st prize at the fair, but there it is all back together.

 

[Roygor]

Chris, that's a great looking 272. My mentor and partner in crime on rebuilding chainsaws would be impressed. Although he rebuilds all sorts of saws, his stable is orange and black. I've seen a few 272's, 372's, 395's and once in awhile he will open the cabinet and pull out a mint 3120xp that I think has only seen one tank of gas. Well here is what I've been spending time on, a 036.

 

[Sepia]

Thanks Roygor. I also have an 036 here that I have to fix the oiler on. I will post it up when I get working on it.
