hey Jay,

this is a REAL saw

lol I seen one on youtube that the motor blow just before the cut. Bet there shots where full!

haha I seen that one too

I put a slime green inter-tube in my splitter tire Saturday and when I blew it up, the tire it exploded everywhere........I thought I was dead there for a min...lol took a couple hours to calm back down. (only hit it with 40psi) slime green everywhere!

A picture of that would have been a candidate for picture of the year! Sure wish I'd been there. :lol:

Hey Danno, love that 250. I'd bet she cuts real nice.

for giggles, I have a 1-41, two 1-42's and a 1-72. I use them once in a while, amazes me that that run so well. I guess they came out in the 60's? so that makes them what 40-50 years old. These old girls all run 404 chain. I can switch all their bars and chains to the Huskie which really makes for some interesting setups.

According to Chainsaw Collectors Website :

1-41 March 1960 to February 1961

1-42 March 1961 to April 1962

1-73 May 1962 - 1963

Myself,I'd love to have a SP125,CP125 or their predecessor,the 797. Basically the same unit,with minor cosmetic changes over the period.Production from 1967 to 1977.Can go from $400 to over $700 in good running condition on Ebay,I'm hoping to get lucky someday.

First pic is, last pic is the 281

agreed. A man can dream, right? The Super 250 will be pulling a .404 on a 36" bar when I'm done with it. Trying to see what sprocket options I have as the thing is a monster with torque, but runs WOT at something like 6,000RPMS.

They look like the same saw..lol How many cc's on a 281?

 

[HittinSteel]

The 281 is Huge and Heavy....made the 660 I had here for a while look small and feel light.

It's 80CC, but is ported and running gasketless. It will get traded soon, as I really have a use for anything that big. It was just a fun project. My 372 pulls a 28" bar just fine.

 

[maxed_out]

Thanks Thistle. 50 years old and they still run just fine. I wonder if my news saws will make it that long.

Can it be set up on 3/8 0.63?

Thats the way to go....404 is a much harder set up for grinding and you have a narrow kerf win win!

[WES999]

Here is my little collection, none of them were purchased new. The Remington was was in the basement when I bought my house. The others were ether freebies or bought used and repaired/ rebuilt.
The three I use are the Husky 350 and the Husky 36 and McCulloch electric with the chainsaw buddy.
