What's on your bench today?

Can't believe that this thread has had nearly 60,000 views in just over a year - thanks for the continued support and interest in what us techs are up to in our sheds and thanks for the input form other techs:thumbup:

 

Gotta say I found the chainsaw section a little tame when I first joined but believe it has changed for the better and follows the forum ethic of helping out fellow members. This thread has done this on many an occasion and has also led me to meet a good number of decent guys as well!

 

Cheers All

Same to you spud. Don't think I know of a more knowledgable techy than you. Or gardenkit for that matter.

 

Keep up the good work you do.

Arbtalk would be a worse place without this thread

Thanks to all especially Spud

It was a great idea to start this thread, Spud.

 

I have learnt a lot from this, even at my age when I thought I new it all!

 

I have learnt from you and other posters, but strangely I have learnt from myself. When I have tried to tell someone else how to do what I do naturally, then that has in itself been a learning process in how to get knowledge from my head into comprehensible words.

 

I have found that trying to describe these tasks consolidates the knowledge I have and encourages me to fill in the gaps.

 

Thank you for tolerating my intrusions on your thread.

Always a pleasure Barrie, you are most welcome - when the thread deviates away from saws, your input is appreciated by all:thumbup:

Got the Husky 395 back together, new muffler - opened up the outlet a little:blushing:

 

Got a 064 in with an intermittent oiler, pulled the clutch off and after close inspection of the pinion, noted that some of the worm drive is worn as pointed to by the pink arrows and the yellow lines show how much the middle part of the drive has worn.

 

The saw looks very low hours but will also check the oiler and feed pipe/filter isn't blocked while I am at it as well as making sure the oiler gear and shaft are free.

064's RULE! I LOVE MINE!!

I agree Spud,Gardenkit is a great part of this superb thread:thumbup1:

The great thing about this thread is its best of both worlds. Not only are people putting there own work up for others to see but you have spud with more chainsaw knowledge than husky and stihl put together, then there's gardenkit with all the knowledge you would need for mowers and horticultural gear.

Cheers Rich, I think we have solved many members saw problems and that is what the site is about, always glad to help and any waifs and strays end up on the bench and sorted.

 

Good mix on the site now and makes it a good place to discuss issues and get good advice and that includes your input of course:thumbup:
