Chet tried an undercut acording to the old manual.  :D  

I'll put it along later with a real cut.

For some reason when Jeff mentioned the option for a meat blade on that saw, I had a startling vision from the movie 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'. Just call me a meatball Jeff. ;) :D :D

Yea, Chet took me on a thrill ride up in da north woods of iron river during the wet heavy snow. We took his 2 wheel drive 4 wheel drive ranger. We were goona go up to Shotgun's camp but never made it that far. We got stuck in the middle of a hill about 3 days walk from civilization. :-/ :)

Since we're on the topic of old saws, I need a little advice.
I have inherited an old Sears Roebuck chainsaw. I know very little about it. It is a 2 stroke, manual oiler, it has a gear drive reduction unit, and about a 20 inch bar. Where would a guy start getting info and parts on an old saw like this? I'd like to restore it and get it running. It is in very good shape and I feel it is worth the trouble. Thanks.

Hey 2strokesmoke. What are the numbers on the saw. Should be able to look it up on the Chainsawcollector's site: www.acresinternet.com. Can you post a picture of it. I've got to  go through my pictures and resize them to post on this site. No biggie, just will take some time. Thaks, and take care. Lewis.

My hobby is restoring old saw. Just because it's old, doesn't mean she can't run and look good again. Take care. Lewis Brander.

I have an old David Bradley D-21, & when I was searching the net for parts list info I found either a link to (or advice to try) Sears.com.  I might have the name wrong; my memory is lousy :-/.  Once I was in the site I nosed around until I selected parts??, & amazingly when I put in the either the model # or the serial # (my lousy memory again), several very nicely detailed parts lists came up, & I was able to print them.

I actually have the lists with me, but it doesn't show the website address.  Several of the pages do show copyright of Sears, Roebuck, & co.  Hope this helps, & good luck.

Jeff B: Similar to that saw you posted. Mine has the same handle, same gas/oil tank, but my engine is more shrowded and the chain on mine is not directly driven off the engine. I have a gear reduction drive on mine. I'll have to get some pictures. But there are similarities between my saw and that one you posted. Thanks!

As far as finding specs on old saws,Mike Acres site has about any ever made,along with other helpful info on chains,carbs,etc.I have a few of my saws on that site,the last are 2 McCulloch sp 125 s.On the subject of decals,there is a fellow in Indiana,by the name of Jack Maples,who made all kinds of decals for antique tractors,stationary engines,etc.He may be on the net,but I don't know,nor do I know his address.I did,however talk to him several years ago,in Portland Indiana,at the steam engine show.It is a family buisiness,and he stated at that time,he could make any decal,for any thing.

The saw is direct drive, when she's runnin' so is the blade.  ::)But it does have a kill switch mechanism built into the throttle. If you release the trigger without engaging the no-kill mechanism the saw instantly dies.  ;)

Weimedog,
I notice you got an 1130G, I've carried one of dem around awhile. Now dars a saw dat will wear ya out!   :D
