What's on your bench today?

[Rich2484]

Had the 026 on bench again tonight. Chain running on. Checked the clutch and it was missing a spring. Salvaged one from a 200 and all is fine again.

 

Had another look at the pole saw. Still none the wiser.

 

I want to get a husky now just so I can get spud to port it.

lol that looks like it will be a mean saw matty

nice job as always spud

[spudulike]

Looking forward to taching this saw up, be even better seeing it buried in some big wood - the guy next door looked impressed when I wandered out of the front door and fired it up - no complaints:lol:

 

Early signs are good, decent compression usually means it will have good torque and the work I have done should improve the power somewhat.

 

Time will tell - will see what Matty is up to and get some fuel through it - I sense another "Boys day out", think we have a few new members to the team:thumbup:

Tached up the 395 today and out for a bash with it on Saturday, may even get a vid up later.

 

Fixed the oiler on the 064 - now fine.

 

Started work on the lawnmower, yes, you heard me right...LAWNMOWER. Got a local bloke who doesn't follow the site run in his lawnmower. Last time he got it back he said it almost pulled his arms out of their sockets - he didn't believe me that it wasnt running very well.

 

Anyway - it came in, very difficult to pull over after over revving - I had thoughts of twisted crank or bent rod but noticed that the machine turned over fine with the blades engaged. I guessed it would be clutch related, had a quick word with Gardenkit and found the below, methinks this bearing needs replacing:lol:

So it was that one then Spud. Well cooked.

im there.. let me no when and il bring one of my 576xp's along

[Rich2484]

Give me enough warning and I will try to be there. Be nice to meet, and see these ported saws compared to none ported. Would be more and interest to me than anything.

The next "boys day out" will hinge on one of the local guys having the time to make the arrangements and use of a local yard.

 

Last time MattyF sorted it with a local timber processor - will have a word and see what it brings. Need to ensure the weather is good!

 

The Ported saws are quicker to rev up and will pull harder in the cut - you will be impressed:thumbup:

[MattyF]

See what I can come up with I would say this sat at were we are trying the 395 but its a private site and I need to pick up a load of parts for all the other saws I have broken over the last two weeks by 12 ! I don't think Patrick will mind us back in his yard but I need to give him some warning.

[MattyF]

Plus Patrick's a stihl man lol.. So you will have to keep your husky allegiance quiet wooded!
