Wondering can that thin be done. [/quote] No I have not welded that yet but that crack will not be a problem. I will do it after I am done with the 3750. #Post#: 28079-------------------------------------------------- Re: Welding Chainsaw Parts By: srcarr52 Date: November 23, 2013, 10:24 pm --------------------------------------------------------- [quote author=3000 FPS link=topic=737.msg27992#msg27992 date=1385179584] Here is another crack in a clutch cover, for I think a 8500. I had a lot of trouble with pitting when welding this one. I think the casting was not very good and seemed to be very porous.

Ditch cut the crack until it's very thin and just commute to having the backside look terrible. #Post#: 28160-------------------------------------------------- Re: Welding Chainsaw Parts By: 3000 FPS Date: November 24, 2013, 7:43 pm --------------------------------------------------------- srcarr52, you are probably correct. It seemed like everytime I put the tig to it that another pit popped up out of no where. Someone will have to use some JB Weld for filler. #Post#: 28162-------------------------------------------------- Re: Welding Chainsaw Parts By: 3000 FPS Date: November 24, 2013, 7:53 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Here is another weld job on a Wright blade saw that had a piece that was broken completely off. The saw was restored by the owner and turned out very nice.

I do not believe I have ever seen anyone weld a plug hole before and cut in new threads. Not to mention what could be an expensive cylinder. Nice job. #Post#: 41777-------------------------------------------------- Re: Welding Chainsaw Parts By: Chainsawrepair Date: June 23, 2014, 4:44 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Sweeeeet.....1st for me to see done too. #Post#: 41778-------------------------------------------------- Re: Welding Chainsaw Parts By: srcarr52 Date: June 23, 2014, 4:55 pm --------------------------------------------------------- [quote author=3000 FPS link=topic=737.msg41774#msg41774 date=1403556724] I am glad you showed that.

[/quote] I did the job so save a friends profit margin. I think I'll get the porting done on it tonight/tomorrow. It should be a good runner... I doubt he'll sell it after I get done with it. I have a 2100 cylinder to do the same thing on when I get time. Next time I'll switch to a smaller torch (not the giant 300 amp 18) so I can get my first past a little cleaner. I had to reach down into the cylinder with a long collet cup and blend in the camber side basically by braille as I could not see anything. ***************************************************** (DIR) Previous Page (DIR) Next Page
