Building your own saw!

[spudulike]

How old are these saw you talk of eddy:001_rolleyes:

 

Put it like this, they have Queen Anne legs, a Serpentine front, inlaid wood and nice patination! Oh - also cost a fortune secondhand unless very lucky and bear little resemblance to modern saws:sneaky2:

Who's Queen Anne?

I've got a few saws in the shed that I intend to rebuild when I've got the money. All stihls, 361,044 and a 440. Will probably do the 440 first.

Hopefully have my workshop/cave done for March. Still digging out the garden need to get it all level, buy a mixer for its base and remember to bury n armour cable to it from the house..... Could be March next year

Yes, but you can repair them with ONE screwdriver, a cigarette packet, an adjustable spanner and gaffer tape!

This may help, I was comparing it to an antique piece of furniture if it went over some peoples heads:001_tt2:

If you where going to build a saw what saw and why? I'm going to do it:blushing: I'm not planning buy all the parts in 1 go maybe every week purchase a few parts and just add the bits as I get them...or even buy a non runner (not a 251:001_rolleyes:) as a donner saw, something that all parts are available.....

 

 

Hi div, I've just bought this old stihl

Got it for £8 on the bay

Thought it would be completely knackered but a bit of fiddling and I've got it running. Few more bits to get it going properly but was better than I thought.

I found this that might suit you today on eBay, plus the one above is what it could look like

I'm watching it but too far for me to go it's near Lincoln

Oh. Forgot to say I have a thread going to show the work I'm doing to it. I hope you do the same with yours, I find them interesting
