I dropped this tree back in November but it wasn’t really high priority to retrieve immediately. Having sold all my ready-to-burn black locust...
This was unexpected. I was all happy yesterday shaving 0.7 grams off the aftermarket piston, when the factory piston was actually SEVEN grams...
It’s an OE 372XP. I had my coworker powder coat the clutch cover and cases, and I Rit dyed the plastics.
Waiting on a carb rebuild kit but so far seems to be a ripper with an 8 tooth sprocket and 20” bar. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I replaced those mounts back in September, thanks :handshake:
Maybe a stress relief operation in the oven at 400 degrees for a couple hours would normalize everything… And maybe if he gets a raging fire going...
The Meteor piston and crank seal/gasket kit from Wolf Creek came in yesterday. I got to work on smoothing out the piston a bit. Baseline weight:...
Split and stacked. This is the most amount of tulip I’ve ever had, and the most I’d ever want to have. At least it’ll dry fast and produce some...
34/70 burning up some bigtooth aspen
Splitter trash that is kindling-worthy gets saved for fire starter and I compost the bulk of the bark I generate. I add to the pile year-round:...
I fired up the 372xp this morning and it ran pretty well. I’m waiting for a couple odds and ends to come in then I can tune it in some wood. Not...
That was my experience about 6-7 years ago with a carburetor I bought for my old Simplicity snowblower. I put it on, it started first pull and I...
Thanks. Yeah the jeweling on the bar I did in the drill press with a rough scotch brite pad on an arbor. I had my buddy do a clear powder coat on...
I’ve had some good luck on eBay from time to time. Better act now; there’s less than 3 1/2 hours left on that posting ;)
Thanks, hopefully it runs good. I’m a little nervous being my first full rebuild. Actually I’m reasonably confident minus the feeling that I may...
If it were me I’d buy this and a rebuild kit: OEM Husqvarna 55 51 50 Special Chainsaw Carburetor Carb For Rebuild Free Ship | eBay Aftermarket...
All back together. It’s too late at night otherwise I’d try to fire it up. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I was going to throw a King Crimson joke in there but I’m glad you did instead :D
Nice score. Yes the crimson king cultivar of Norway maple. I imagine it's like regular Norway and dries very fast, and puts out decent heat.
Excellent little grab Brad. You're making me want to go cut up the rest of that locust I dropped in November with you. Maybe later this week when...
