Oh I've already got a little one ,60 by 70 . I could have made a kings ransom in my life time if I only could sell things . I can't sell chit .I can buy though with the best of them . I'm the worlds best hustler and the worlds worst salesman .:( It just isn't right .

Ha,that's pretty much the key to a lot of things .:lol: It's kind of been my life style .However if I bought every good deal that came along I'd need a warehouse about the size of a small airport .

That one was the buy of the century .That's a Monarch 10" EE toolmakers lathe .Most likely one the most accurate lathes ever made . The last one of it's kind was at Monarch in Sidney Ohio with a price tag of over a hundred thou .The one sold prior to that went to United aircraft at around 90...

I just thought of another "McGiver" method of getting the bearings off the crank . Big drill chucks use a Jacobs taper .To remove a big chuck you use tapered slotted wedges ,two of them driven in 180 degrees apart . I think about a number 3 or 4 Jacobs taper wedge should be about the correct...

Very nice pics Collector .:) Dastevoe that flywheel puller is a screw type thing that goes into the threads on the end of the flywheel . Being stingy I made one from a metric hydraulic tubing fitting ,a piece of round sock and a Ford head bolt .

Well ,that is true too .It's hard to say without seeng exactly how that thing works . I have no doubt if Stihl designed it there is nothing wrong with it . In my books I have pictures of that press plus some other specialty tools .The only one I've duplicated so far is a flywheel puller ...

Now this is coincidental because I also have an 034 that was given to me with a damaged piston due to dust inhalation because of a faulty air filter .How about that .:) My only comment about using these tools is the fact they are pressing against the bearing races . It obvious they work great...

Getting it apart is not a problem .Heat the bearing pockets and it will pry apart ,heat ,pry,heat , pry .Usually just freezing the crank and thumping it on a board will shake the bearings loose .Sometimes after freezing they about fall off ,just depends . Putting back together could be a...

You can split them without the special tools if you know how ,I've done bunch of them and never screwed a thing up---- but if you don't know how best not go there .

If it grenaded a piston it would be my suggestion to split it . The reason being if just one tiny itty bitty bit of loose aluminum gets lodged in a bearing it will do untold amounts of damage . If a bearing hangs it could spin within the bearing pocket in the case ,not good at all . Generally...
