    The first saw i ran was my fathers 7-19 Homelite back in 1959. Then in the early 60's i cut pulpwood with a 500, 700 and 900 model Homelite's. In 1964 they came out with the XL-12, it was like a toy saw after carrying the 500 series. I logged full time up till 1989, i got hurt in a logging accident.
    Very good video

    This saw reminds me of my father's old STRUNK (i think that's how it is spelled). heavy ol saw, just lay it on top the log and the weight pulled it through the cut, hard to make the felling cut unless you were strong, some times it starved out cause it did not pressurize the fuel tank so well, I enjoyed watching this vid, some good memories the first time I ever worked with my father.

    @douglasengle2704 Рік тому

    Great Video! What a find of a vintage chainsaw! 1956 was likely near the vary end of float bowl carburetor use for chainsaws. That saw would have been very limited in how much out of level cutting it could do. Old chainsaws with float carburetors frequently had it so the operator could rotate the carburetor 90° so the saw could be used for making horizontal felling cuts. I put 1/2" pitch Stihl chain on a gear reduction chainsaw and that old saw just sank through wood cutting out huge chips as it quickly munched down a log! It was slow cutting, but the chips it cut were huge so it balanced out to devouring the trees we put in on! It was fun to watch! These were very expensive machines when new. I use the US Labor & Statistic inflation calculator for giving current value of old prices. According to an economist that commented back to me that is not the way economist look back on past value they also considered how much lower average wealth influenced purchase decision. So lets that that Wasp 1956 chainsaw inflation calculated original price would put it at $3,000 in 2020, but it would be in effect even more expensive because average wealth was so much lower in 1956 than 2020. That makes these old saw a machine that could of only likely be purchased by major company.

    I was hollering the jet in the bottom holds that on .IVE worked on those in the 60-70s. So many great old saws trashed for being heavy. But ill tell you a bow bar on them n they would cut effortlessly on downed trees. Firewood men loved them the wisse, the old 66 , big maccolagh saws pioneer. Fmc, David Bradley too. I think thats a tillotson carb.
