    028 today - just completed the complete tear down and getting ready to clean everything up. No spark - bad coil I think - decided to just part out rather than fix - need to stop keeping the saws......Cheers!

    Hanging up this beautiful custom sign that FarmHand78 had made for me (Thanks again!!). It is 48" wide and 7" tall. I love it!!

    1427835231390.jpg
    1427835350353.jpg Then to finish hanging a couple saws in the basement.

    This 2100 is next on the list (SquareFile !! Thanks!!)

    They don't come much cleaner than this one.


    Then an old Gear drive David Bradley (Toad22t !! Thanks!!)

    Great - would love to have one on the barn if I can find the ching - can you take special requests for decals/etching (not sure how you are doing that). PM me when you have a chance. Thanks!

    The FHC is cut out, I put a white piece of paper behind it to make it stand out. I can't remember if he said they were plasma cut or water jet? But it's a very clean job. I just need to make a set of nice handles and wait till it gets a good rust in it before I clear coat it (I want it to look weathered).

    I traded a guy for a plasma cut stihl one once to help him out on a p+c. It came bare metal, but I tested some bright orange paint on it for my next poulan build. ;)

    There was a guy on CRS that was doing bars too. I guess they would have been good for show on a saw.

    Most think of what you posted :) I suffer from CRS all the time ;)

    But his reference is to Chainsaw Repair Site.

    I like to think I have selective CRS and then in most cases I have a bad case of CRS or DRS or DWRS. Just in case people aren't smelling what I'm stepping in lol. It's Don't remember S or don't wanna remember S lol.

    So since this is the What are you working on thread. I'll actually add something to it. IMG_20150321_184143.jpg

    Right now I'm working on my 288 that I just got. 14280846142681542726764.jpg
    Trying to get this cleaned up. But I should be working on this 1428084693744-422683483.jpg
    Or this 1428084771810290880760.jpg
    But I'll probably end up sitting starring at the wall in this 1428084871294548249156.jpg
