Chainsaw Pics...

I had a 750evl. 78cc of big Ole heavy beast. It was a very cool saw. I sold it because it was too heavy for me.

 

This will be a novelty saw for me. Clean it up, run it once a year or so just because. I need to start building saw shelves up high in the garage just to display them.

 

Now a Husqvarna 40 or 45 Id use regularly.

 

I like the idle and oiler adjustment knows and the manual oiler lever on those old echos.

 

I was looking it over and noticed the oiler adjustment. Pretty convenient. I didn't notice the idle adjustment. I saw the manual oiler too.

 

That's the idle adjustment right under the h and l screws.

 

After I enlarged it i just noticed it says idle right under it. Lol.

 

My old 50.

 

I like it. Like knobs on old school car radios. Lol

 

Love it.

 

They had a snap in plastic recoil badge on them. They would fall off after a couple years of use. A guy on ope found an NOS one that I'm trying to get.

 

This is what I'm trying to get. Mine is not a special but it's special to me.

 

After watching eBay for a long time, I found a recoil w/ that plate intact.

Dad bought this one brandy new back when.

 

X2. My 290 was my only firewood saw for many years. Treated me very well and cant say a bad thing about it. 16" bar was all I ran on it.

 

I bought mine new in 1986. Was my only saw until I joined forums in 2016 and learned I needed more saws.

 

Funny how that works.

 

Same happened to you too huh?

 

Funny how that works, same thing happened to me, too.

 

I had a total of 3 saws over many years up until 2019 when I discovered saw fourms and ported saws on YouTube. Now I've had 120-130 saws. Most were cheaply purchased vintage saws but still... I've had as many as 28 on hand and currently set at 15 as of yesterday. I think...lol

 

Do you think we may have a problem??
