Happy new year 2022 if possible....I
I let the "first" pass in hopes some one would step up to start a new thread.
381 submissions and 24K views for 2021 down by more than half from 2020. Hoping for better this year
I thought I would get though this covid OK but got omicron the saturday before christmas.
Could a moderator please close down the 2021 thread and sticky this one.
My biggest chainsaw discovery for last year was finding the woodland pro 68RC full chisel 3/8LP at Baileys. Hope you did better.
 
10-10S is 57 cc vs. 54cc in the regular variety, with some added soup in the porting of the 57. The 57 cc models (PM55, 555, 570, and 10-10S) will all be better performers than a regular 10-10.

That is a beautiful machine Alfa, watch out for the kickback zone on the bow bar...

Thanks, good to know it is a good one, I have plenty of chainsaws (40+), but this is my first bow blade, a little apprehensive to use it, but will at some point. Funny thing is I was in my teens working at the little hardware store when he bought it new. I gave him a good running but well used Stihl 028 Super a few years ago.
 
Found an hour away from my town. I have all paperwork and manuals for it. Lived in a closet since new.

It’s a saw … and it was free buddy called me this morning said his neighbor was getting ready to move to his home in Florida permanently. I got this bandsaw a 10 inch craftsman shop saw and a 24 inch cut radial arm saw . All craftsman from the early 60s . I have to go back and take apart the shop saw and radial saw . Couldn’t get them out with the two of us . But we were able to get the bandsaw out. 3CB9E152-9F71-474F-BFBD-BFD15F8F82DC.jpeg85177EAB-41CD-4302-80EB-088EC7C69DE0.jpeg7FB96106-B559-4F1D-80EE-B59D9D88A972.jpeg481B5883-A54B-4512-A1D4-C9CBFC22DCD4.jpeg
 
Early Stihl 051AV, points ignition
Got it for 50€. Fuel line and 4 AV mounts were rotten...otherwise its a runner with huge compression and crazy bright spark. Not sure if the cylinder is original...its not Mahle. Did Stihl also used other cylinders?

prognosis is good for the 288.

the top end has transfer but no actual scoring i can see/feel and the bottom end feels tight and smooth. it will still need to come apart as i managed to drop an amazing amount of grot/wasp nest into the bottem end.

it won't be tackled straight away but has been jumped a fair way up the que.

it also comes with a fully custom muffler mod!

i am not sure what is going on with the clutch, note the 2-3mm gap all round. i am guessing it has been swapped.
