Saw a 075 at a swap meet a month ago, pretty good shape with a 28" bar. He wanted $450 but I saving for a saw I can mill with & fill the fuel / oil while it is in the mill. So I had to pass. Dex, you call that filthy? Shucks, that's purty near clean enough to eat off of Well at least set the plate on. Cut on!!!
Wouldnt the bigger bore be lighter as there is less metal? And Dex that is hilarious...I had too look hard for the dirt!!
Bigger bores mean bigger jugs. Which means more material. They all need the proper amount of cooling surface. You can't make an 880 jug out of a 460 jug. The bigger the cc's, the bigger and heavier the jugs get.
Also in my neighborhood: Homelite 770G Chainsaw - $150 (North Huntingdon PA 15642) I have a great running late 1950s early 60's Homelite 770G chainsaw. Everything works as it should, everything is there except the recoil cover and cylinder cover which always went missing on these. 100cc's 28in hard nose Oregon Armor Tip bar. Geardrive powerhead and half inch pitch chain. More of a collector type saw than a worker however I have used it to cut large stumps or large rounds of firewood without issue. PRICE: $150 OBO. I'm flexible on price but know what these are worth. Last I checked good 1/2" pitch chain is bringing around $5 a drive link by itself. This chain is like new with around 80 drivers. Email me with questions, thanks for reading!
The family. 7900, 261/262xp, 2252. I don't discriminate based on color. Hell....I'll take one of every color, as long as it runs as good as these. One is to be ported October 1st. Can't decide which one. Feel free to help me decide.
That's a hard decision. I would each one, but for different reasons. The 7900 because they are Beast! The 262xp because ported 60 cc saws run like 70 cc saws. 2252 because that would make a mean, fast, and light machine... I'm no help... I like them all ported.
Lordy... Lordy. If I had a dollar for everytime I have said "Im done". 555 and 6400 are long gone.... you have a 665 on the way. Your sick Dex.... admit it.
Just pic for while I was grabbing pics in the barn today. The front one runs but 1 shoe broke off clutch. The other parts saw has a good clutch.
I'll Play. Here is a pic of the 395xp I bought from Dex last Nov so he could buy the 441cm he wanted...... I have never cut with this saw by the way. This is actually a picture he used in the listing. This is the Tgerloff saw that was involved in the Blue Goo scandal. Randy went back thru it and brought it back from the grave. It's also ported.
Here is a pic of the Jonsered 2095 that Randy rebuilt and ported for me. I wound up trading this saw to Randy. He sold it to "DeepSouth" on AS.
That wee 110 looks like the late 80's Eager Beaver 2.0 top handle Mac brother gave me last March.Just a few years older.Tore it all down,cleaned it all up,put it back together.Very good compression & starts right up,but it leaks around this clamp fitting that holds fuel tank down.Should be an easy fix.not sure if its worth the effort though.Just keeping it on the shelf as a reminder of what McCulloch ended up as before they went belly up in January 1999.
