Sparky-(Admin) 21,309 #3 Posted March 28, 2020 Old McCulloch’s are good saws. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tractorhead 9,064 #4 Posted March 28, 2020 Nice Engine, if you have it up and running you probably could test it with a Quick built Beerbox runner like this 👍😎 ok, a chainsaw is useful but a beerbox is maybe more Funny.... 😂 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHNJ701 4,165 #5 Posted March 28, 2020 I think there's a box in our barn that has 3 or 4 of those saws too that's been there for the last 15 to 20 years too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Digger 66 3,478 #7 Posted April 10, 2020 Update : Wasn't exactly thrilled with the carb kit I got from China ( at the owners request ) but it arrived yesterday . Manifold gaskets could have been mare accurately cut but , what do you want for 8 bucks and a month-long wait . In spite of that , it came out cool . Will fire her up later today and set the carb .

Darb1964 1,042 #9 Posted April 10, 2020 I have one just like it, maybe size bigger. My wife and I got for my father in law in mid eighties at K mart. I kept after he passed, have not done anything with it after bringing it home 2013. Think I will dig it out, I gave my husky to a friends son for helping me with few things around the house, to heavy for me now and I don't do wood any more. I miss it, was my time to work out and forget about life's struggles. Now red square is my go to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bc.gold 3,403 #11 Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) The McCulloch logo was removed from a fuel tank that came into our scrap yard with a load, there were no other parts. I carefully cut the logo free from the tank then back filled it with automotive body filler, then used it as my pattern to cast these in aluminum. I use petro-bond sand in my core box's, this sand is so fine that it will pick up finger prints, it's a nice product to work with it uses oil instead of water as a binder so even an idiot is able to cast metals with out fear of a steam explosion. This image does not do the casting justice. Edited April 18, 2020 by bcgold Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
