Bill, that is a NICE looking machine! I assume that the old 55 is giving you good service? And you are right, if you stop moving after you retire,...
You can get away cheaper by using a graduated 2-stroke 1qt oil bottle and cap and a brass hose barb from the hardware store.
There is a review of the CS-590 on Chainsaw Repair by a trusted friend of mine. Joe (1manband) is a very smart fellow!...
If you have a look at: http://www.scientificsonline.com/ under lab equipment, you will find what you need. A hanging beaker with hose attached...
I agree Dex, Randy does great threads and builds but seldom are they geared for someone just starting out or who does not have a desire to start...
The Solos certainly sound different than almost anything.
Actually, a more useful thread may be tunring a Makita/Dolmar 6400 OP into a CP 665 or 681 because there are lots of different ways to accomplish...
Well, I am planning to do another on CR geared toward the folks there. Dolmar 6400 (new) from Nate Vansickle. Turn it into a 681 including the...
How about converting a Solo 665 to a 681? No tricks just a conversion.
Splitting the case is cake. The HVA tool for a 372 will do it.
Yes, but the 7900 kits are not (to my knowledge) set up for the 1mm stroked crank. You cannot take some material off the squish band to cure that...
Mike as you already know, there is a way to put a 7900 jug on the 665 but I have been promised two Solo 681 C/P kits out of Germany. I have also...
Or perhaps two, three or many!
I must appologize to all those who cut cookies in competition. I was just enthralled with the idea of a 'real work' based competition. So for all...
The thing with a big saw is; you don't have to worry about 'did I really go far enough to drop this sucker'! You will know, the challenge then is...
Ya gots' ta look out for them Germans, they tend to over evgineer, like a 665 Solo, a 65cc saw that weighs as much as an 80cc saw! LOL! Joking...
Well, you obviously had your Ps & Qs down pat. So you think after dropping that tree, there is a use of an 80cc saw, 1/7 acre or not?
Nice Jon, the tree was obviously dead. Be careful when dropping those, they shatter when they land just as this one did. Very large pieces of wood...
Randy, we all respect your work but we respect you and your family more, as Dex said FAMILY comes first! In stressful times it is helpful to work...
These also work on the XT carbs RWJ-4-1. No need to remove limiters the tool both disengages the limiter and allows for full adjustment of the...
