Wasn't there a movie called the pit and the (chainsaw) pendulum.
Don't think I want a running saw on a rope flailing around.
Chain has no cutters.

Just the end part of tool does for debarking.

Lots of different ways of doing things, his method seems to work pretty well for him. Would like to see what it looks like after it’s installed in the stairwell

I know the guy I got mine from years ago used to do all the wood in his house he was building.

Bet it is nice in there.

I have a friend in KY that has a debarked sealed tree standing in their house. Whole house beautiful wood inside.

Wish I can recall where those pics are. I'll post if I find them.

NLA parts back in my hands. Both of us thought lost forever.

The box I shipped USPS international back in May 2025.

We watched it clear customs over there in Dublin and NY at least 20 times over the year, back forth over and over. 🤦‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:
We both were calling when in our country's trying to get it.

May 2025-Feb 2026.

Repacked and going to try UPS Worldwide Expedited this time to Ireland.

Bought this bark peeler to use on sawmill logs. Was going to put it on an old makita saw I had but the pulley would not fit. A buddy gave me this old poulan a while back, so I thought I would see if the pulley would fit. It was closes but there was a little slop where the spindle came though the pulley so I had to make a bushing to tighten it up. Put some new gas and a. little seafoam in the saw and BOOM started right up and the bark peeler works perfectly. GOTTA LOVE FREE CHAINSAWS!View attachment 4975116
I have the same debarker. It came with 2 pulleys; one Husky, the other Stihl. I put ot on an 018 Stihl. It works slow, but still faster and cheaper than changing blades.

When your stupid cells override your you should know better brain cells.

But had to know why wouldn’t pop on squirt of mix.

It had spark and good psi. I also found the coil that was in it was loose and been riding that flywheel. Even when corrected gap still had spark.

So went ahead and pulled one from a parts saw.

Has that pos junk yellow tiny oem style tygon or fake fuel lines in it still.

She lives on squirt of mix through carb.

I would guess carb prob will need a kit too.

But I am done. Just wanted to make sure it started just in case someone wanted for a Sawfest builder for race class.

I been cracking up seeing people post about their cheaper temu cans.

People been buying those stihl clone combi off Temu and they dont even come with spouts. :ROFLMAO:

If it dont have Holzfforma on it your taking a wack in the dark to getting a stihl clone combi.

Just because oem and clones all look alike there is ways to tell the difference.

Husky oem left and Holzfforma right. aka Farmertec.

I been at the same farm house since 94. The farmer that is retired from the state too took over everything from his folks passed on.
Dont recall how many years after I moved here when he took over.

So I bet it was bought new way back when, prob by them or the folks that owned one of the farms they bought.

Amish roofing one of the old barns and he found it setting back in a dark corner. With all the standing seam off there was light inside.

I was just telling my dad I wish I could walk them old barns out on the 3 farm places to see what all stuff is hiding from the past days.
