    RIGHT INTO THE GROUND!!!!

    So does anyone have any spare 026 parts? Looks like as of right now I need a rear handle and new plastic. However after I pulled it out of the dirt I pulled the cord and it fired right up!

    Dang! Scotty, your aim is gettin' gooder. :rofl: :lol:
    Had a big Spruce come off the stump and straight down on top of my saw (yes, I did it wrong) and pushed it into the ground. Only thing that saved it was the soft sand. Cracked the brake handle, but that was it.

    Yes it is. Mostly dead. It looks to be starting to rot pretty good at the base.

    blacksmith got his "crushed chainsaw" cherry broke today, it's painful, but it happens.....

    I've crushed my fair share over the years. At least this 026 looks to be an easy fix, needs a rear handle/tank assembly and some misc plastics......
