What's on your bench today?

Nice view in the workshop this weekend, three ported Huskys - two 372s and 350, now boxed and ready to go after a taching and run up:thumbup:

 

Been pulling seals also - got to show these pics just to piss off the techs without this tool:001_rolleyes:

I had to insist he signed a waiver so there were no come backs from personal injury or back problems in the future, these things were designed for small people.

 

I told Spike that he had to use it as he hadn't brought a strimmer with him.

Told him it was the equivalent of doing PE in your pants for forgetting your kit.

Love the look of those saws, how did the 350 turn out?

What's the nail for beside the brakeband?

Got an old McCulloch Titan 50 that I purchased ages ago, surprisingly it did start so thought I would give it a quick going over ready for sale:001_rolleyes:

 

The clutch spring had snapped and had to grind out two lots of rivits to get the spring retaining plates off so I could get a new spring on.

 

Then...the bloody thing wouldn't start - fuel line had fallen apart as had the breather pipes, the oil pickup and the spaghetti junction of pipes around the manual oil pump:thumbdown:

 

Got them all replaced and just need to reassemble it and clean the carb - hopefully it will all be OK once fuelled up and pulled over.

You beat me to it, perfect method, the only thing I can add is, you may be able to slide thin webbing straps behind the flywheel.

Then hold the saw by the straps, one or two sharp taps with a middle sized hammer.

 

This also works for me.

 

H-A

 

 

All the above and i hold it over a sponge cushion (furniture not cake) so that the saw has a soft landing

Flywheel came off ok. Recoil spring was covered in crap so cleaned it off in petrol and reassembled. It still seems a bit tired and slow to rewind but I can't find anywhere to buy just the spring without the pulley etc. I also will need a fuel line for it as it isn't sealing in the fuel tank so I shudder to think what state it is in along the rest of it. Any ideas where to look for these online?
