Yard sales are a great source of tools. I’ve spent 20 years building my tools to work on anything. I’ll buy things I don’t need today for under $5, then they find a use in the future. Now I have tools I forget I own. Nothing is a bummer like putting away a new tool and finding your other/better one in the storage spot.
I started out with basic tools got the job done , I’ve collected tons since . As my relatives pass l inherited tons more no one likes old rusty, mismatched tools , l call it experience lol My old saw man always used a pressure washer to clean parts ,cheap excellent results. In BC we have unlimited water and not as cold , most of the time . Always enjoy your videos thanx
Awesome video for the everyone not just beginners! Definitely not necessary but I'd add a shop press to the list of optional tools like a foredom or a lathe. They make pressing cases together an absolute no brainer
If you would please I’m sure many others besides myself would love to see your lathe. Great video as always. Keep safe, blest and blessing us with your knowledge and passion.
The Chinese copy of the Foredom is like $70 bucks and they work great…alibaba has the 90 handpiece that fits the Chinese Foredom copy for $80 bucks.., if you have a real Foredom you just need to use a square burr and open it up a little and it will pop on your drive shaft… no problem! 😂👍. Port saw’s boys!!! Best dang hobby on earth!!!
Great layout of the basics!! Thanks for sharing👍 I'm in the habit of never putting a saw I've used away without blowing it off/out first. If only I could get my friends that have air in their shops to do the same😐
To complement all you work in the rebuilding of any saw. Learn how to sharpen your cain and keep it sharp with the right raker depth too. 👍💪💪 great upload Tinman, thank you.
Thanks Tinman great as always.... No files for you in the shop.... Hahahahaha just joking.. Guessing a saw shop may have a file or two.... lol take er easy bud!!! Can't wait fie the next one!
A buddy of mine is traveling through Alberta right now, he just posted a video of hiking a mountain only to find it melting through ruining the snowboarding run. He has a nice 55 I gave him to go with a 35cc homelite he purchased.
Those threaded piston stops are really nice when you're timing, but don't use them when you're removing a flywheel or clutch. I was reefing on a stuck clutch using one of those and it stripped the spark plug threads and sent the piston stop flying across the room. Had to use one of those thread repair inserts because I couldn't find a cylinder (an old Homelite) and there's some compression lost that I'll never get back.
Loctite has a shelf life of one year or so after its opened. There should be a date on the container. Not to say don't use it but something to be aware of.
I got a big bottle red loctite i had when i retired in 2001 still using it when i need it. It is 21 year old. Got carb cleaner and starting fluid several cases from 2001. Never heard about shelf life. It still works. Like i got about 20 tubes permatex and at least 20 bottles liquid gasket maker. Around 10 gal battery acid. All this stuff is from 2001 when i retired. And i still use it when needed. Even got several products you can not buy any more because of EPA.
It will until it doesn’t. I’m now on second generation pullers and since I didn’t need boatloads of additional tools I could invest to upgrade and hopefully eliminate failure.
Hey Tinman thanks for the vid. Ive been trying to buy a clutch removal socket with 2 shoulders for my rancher. All the amazon ones are N/A or 45$. Any other idea where I might find one? There are other ways to get the clutch off but I would rather do it with the proper tool. Later….
Strange🤔 I got one on Amazon about 6 months ago for less than $10 there's gotta be someone selling them at a reasonable price. Could also take a cheap/spare socket, close in size and grind the 2 sides off so it fits over.
Don’t buy cheap. You can’t loose it nobody will steal it so you’ll have it forever and you will hate it every time you use it. Never forget my uncle running out of his shop to throw a cheap socket into upper orbit 🤬
Was true for years, but i got cans full of old snap on ratchets sockets also got broke proto tools. Now days the tools you buy at harbor fright are as good as some times better than big name tools. Times have changed. Look at a home depot wrench then at snap on wrench. Same serial number stamped on back of wrench.

Also small and large locking forceps can be a sanity saver with some fuel lines and wiring!

Old CDs or DVDs make excellent backers for the printed timing Wheels the holes already dead center and nice and round
Harbor freight has a cheap copy of a fordam for under $50.00
Thanks for sharing, you usually can get by with less it’s just not as much fun

I'm sure I'll work in a lathe vid one of these days.

You can get the same thing at harbor freight, grinder wood cutters! $49 bucks!!
@@NothingButChainsaws a 90 degree handpiece?
@@DaveyBlue32 nope
Good show Tinman. I found a 372.
I use E-85 for cleaning. Not much fumes and cleans very well. Cuts grease an oil good.
Thanks for this one. Very helpful!
Finally some does a video on tools they use. Thanks Tim 💪

Oh man!! I thought about doing this video as well lol!
This channel has made me obsessed with chainsaw modding. My wife is not happy.

I would include a good set of feeler gages and a clutch puller. Just say'en.. good stuff as always, Tinman...Mahalo🤙🤙🤙
Nice tool selection sir good info thank u have a good week!!!
So what your saying is that my scrench tool collection isn’t gonna cut it.. 😜
It's not the tool that makes the man, its man that makes the tool.
Outstanding video! 💪👍
Great breakdown brother keep being great 💪🏻☀️❤️🔥🌙 kindness and love .!!!
Good class
If my saw shop here in north east pa was honest with people I wouldn't need this
I really like the eklind and wiha brands. They are pretty good better than craftsman or the klien I’ve used
Thank you!!!
Breaking the center out of an old sparkplug, then tap and insert a bolt for an adjustable stop.
This how I work on saws. Put it in a box and mail it to Tinman. 🤷♂️ because I’m horrible at working on saws.

I was pleasantly surprised that my $20 eBay puller works as well as it does.

How different is a clam shell style saw? Love the channel from your southern neighbor
Just remove your plastic and install on new motor. Cheaper than trying to repair saw. The motors are cheap.
What brand is that little angle dremel you use for upper transfers? I’ve been searching for something like that
I literally have $150 in tools to work on saws. Plus I hand make stuff to.
Will that c style splitter work on a saw with crank stuffers?
timing degree wheel printablet
Keep your voice down man, you need loads of tools to fix chainsaws!!! Tools are an investment and if you mind them you have them for life
Hello

I aways just make stuff like that.

Do you have a lot of snap-on and mac tools
No not really. I have a mix of brand's.

Best tool in the shop is a dirty mouth.
Some times that is true. Some times its the biggest hammer.
