HOW I CLEAN A FILTHY CHAINSAW CASE *WITHOUT* AN ULTRASONIC CLEANER

[@mattw5729]

Great video Sir, thank you!!

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@mattw5729 Thank you my friend!!

[@matthewknight5641]

nice looking saw and i bet you get it running good before long.

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 It sure looks better than it did! By now, it's running VERY well!

[@tomintexas817]

thanks for sharin with us you definitely upped my "builder" game😂 fleabay😅

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@tomintexas817 👍👍

[@matthewknight5641]

that wore me slap out seeing you starting that saw there. id need a nap after that one

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 Sometimes a feller just has to build an appetite for supper!! 🙄😉

[@Kevin.L_]

At least you got your exercise starting that Husky. I only flood saw off camera. Happy New Year's!

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@Kevin.L_ 😂🙄 As much time as I spend editing out dead air, going for tools, etc... you would think I could learn to edit out my mistakes; I editing all my mistakes out once, and there wasn't anything left!! 😉 If you think that one was bad, wait until the MS461 first start... I outdo my own record of dumbness!! Hope all goes well for you and your family in the upcoming year too Kevin; be extra safe tonight!!

[@matthewknight5641]

happy new year

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 You too Sir!! Be careful out there while bringing us all of our goodies!!

[@jaysparrowhawk9388]

Wishing you a happy new year.

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@jaysparrowhawk9388 By golly, I hope all y'all have a great one too. Personally, I'm just gunna try to be happy every day until my time has come!

[@darrelljohnson4658]

Good class thanks

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@darrelljohnson4658 Well Darrell, since my class is an "elective", I'm extra happy you sat-in!!

[@marriedwithsmallengines]

Hey, cool video! 😊

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@marriedwithsmallengines Those are awful kind words from such an awesome channel as all y'all have!! Thanks for taking a moment to make my day!!

[@itllkeal]

I used to clean engine parts with oven cleaner and hot water back in the day whenever I did work on engines before the computers came aboard. Thanks Moonshine 😊

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@itllkeal Oven cleaner sure does the trick too!! Ain't sure if oven cleaner will melt the plastic or rubberized handlebars, etc?? I bet the ol' oven cleaner would play heck on the new computerized models!! 🍻

[@HawtSawz86]

Happy New Year my friend 🍻❤️ Pork chop comment had me rolling

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@HawtSawz86 Happy New Year to you and your loved ones, too!! 🎊🎉 That's a "menu item" that I used to like to offer my buddies when they had a terrible hangover... seemed like, if they really thought about it, they would jettison the "poison" right on out!! 😂😉 Sure do enjoy you being here! Thanks!!!!!!!!!

[@crazyfeller5704]

👍👍 good idea on the siphon- haven’t used mine in a number of years!

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@crazyfeller5704 Thanks! It seems to work well for this time of year and whatnot; I hadn't used mine in years either and decided to see how it would do; I like it!!

[@jonathanhensley8685]

Mark, you got some good stuff! I really enjoy it. That’s a good idea on using the air vibrator on something like a turkey cooker. The only difference would be vibration only creates agitation, which wouldn’t be as thorough as an ultrasonic cleaner which uses sound waves that create microscopic bubbles on the surface of what’s being cleaned, which implode and loosen the matter. You can find ultrasonic units that can just be plugged in and dropped into a tub of water, which would give you the ultrasonic clean effect. With that being said, the air vibrator is still an awesome idea because micro agitation is the second best thing to ultrasonic waves. Another thing you can do for some intense agitation is strap and orbital sander to a 5 gallon bucket and hang the bucket from a rope. You always get the old hitchhiker from me, buddy👍🏼

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@jonathanhensley8685 Thanks!! I had concerns if it would work; I assumed it wouldn't work as well, but sufficiently? Sonic makes sense; I sure like how sonic does; I used one at work since the time they cost @$1200 for one so small it would hardly fit a sidearm. I think we may try the drum/agitator at some point. Charlie told me that he used a paint can and DA dander in the same manner. Seems like I ***NEVER*** have an idea that someone else didn't have first!! Thanks for riding along; I always enjoy picking up hitchhikers instead of fighting lions!!

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Seeing you use the siphon wand may have helped me finish a project thats been banging around in my head. Its cold here in the winter and I like to use a sandblast cabinet indoors to blow off/clean parts. Maybe I could use the siphon wand in the blast cabinet combined with some filtration and heat. Thanks for sharing.

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@TheGreasyShopRag I bet that would work just fine!! A cabinet would be great! I cut my hair just before cleaning the chainsaw; I knew I was going to need a shower after each, so I combined the hair-cut shower with the chainsaw-cleaning shower. I always look like a speckled pup after cleaning a saw. Thanks for coming along; I am anxious to see what you do with the idea/seed of the siphon and add to it!

[@MarkPrestwich-h6m]

Ah beauty! Great idea. I used to run a garden hose from the drain port on the hot water tank in the basement up the stairs and out the door. Cleaned my engine blocks that way. My wife wasn’t impressed. I guess that explains why she is now my ex-wife 😅

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@MarkPrestwich-h6m I sure hate to "take sides" but sounds like you were a perfect gentleman 😇😇 and that SHE was just plain unreasonable!! You used a garden hose AND did it outside!! I know people that have done it INSIDE *and* in the bathtub... and their still married... I think you dodged a bullet on that one. 😉😉

[@fearghalmorrissey2601]

6:09 I have a blister on my finger from just watching 😂 Happy New Year

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@fearghalmorrissey2601 Previous to owning a Husky, I would have had one, too. These Huskys have taken my tender, soft, Stihl owner's hands and toughened them right up!! 😉😂 There, THAT oughtta get a fight started between us Stihl owners and us Husky owners!! I gotta get a last jab or two in before my New Years resolutions kick-in 😇😇 Happy New Year to you and yours! 🎉🎊 Be safe my friend!!

Congrats on passing 2 thousand subs . I remember when you had a few hundred . been using my 026 a lot recently . We are burning dead tree wood from one tree that storm Darragh knocked over and some old pine floorboards from a construction/destruction job as I type this . Hope you had a good Christmas + have a happy new year . Good times ahead 👍

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@containerseightandnine9756 Thanks; it was a nice milestone to hit 2K. Nothing like the "big guys"; but then again, neither am I. I sure liked (dad has it now) running my 026; it was just the right size/power for so many jobs. Hope you and your family is just heaped-up with blessings.

[@902hand7]

Well you know for sure the starter is good for a pull or thirty!! 😉😉

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@902hand7 Right??!! I always tell people "If you're gunna be dumb, you gotta be tough!!" Dang choke lever!!!

[@user-ret-cde-ret]

I definitely like your method for pressure cleaning chainsaws. I have my power washer winterized and put away for the season and would not want to get it back out until spring. Hope those after-market parts work out well. Finding OEM parts for these older saws can be next to impossible. Have a blessed New year's Eve and New Year!

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@user-ret-cde-ret Thanks Jim; it's cheaper and easier for me to use this; plus, I get to use warm/hot water and mix my own rate of soap. Diesel works well, too... makes me a little nervous though. I think AM will be a little short of OEM for power, but I can still get AM!! Hope you and your loved ones have a great year; be extra safe tonight!!

[@matthewknight5641]

a stiff paint brush and purple power works good

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 I'll have to look for "Purple Power"; do you order yours or snatch some up locally?

[@matthewknight5641]

@HayChaffandSawdust1 I order mine from Amazon a gallon at a time. I use it for washing my camper and I've used it once for a saw that had pine sap all over it. I had to use gas and then the pure power on the pine sap but it made the saw look new almost and didn't hurt the plastics

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 Good to know; a person never knows what kind of idea a simple conversation like ours will develop... I may get some and try it in my sawmill water tank; I usually use cheap dish soap to deter buildup of saw or creosote (depending upon what I'm sawing) on the blades. I use Pine-sol in my mill when sawing poles, but that may be better; THANKS again!! Man O Man, I *LOVE* it when people share ideas and information!!

[@matthewknight5641]

@HayChaffandSawdust1 I was a dish soap fan until I got the first jug of purple power. I do like it better. it washes diesel fuel off my tanks pretty good also

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@matthewknight5641 I like the fact that, if you're using it on your tanks, it's safe on aluminum; some stuff is too harsh on aluminum to suit me. From the looks of your rig (from what I can see), you take pride and there's not a 2 month old streak of spilled diesel and dirt down the side! Good enough recommendation for me!!

[@jeffdillard8789]

Always good shit keep it coming

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@jeffdillard8789 Thanks Jeff! I will try, but when I only come up with a good idea every few years, I gotta make 'em last!! 😉😂

[@bigmoustacheal3295]

The monster vibratory gizmo has me in full suspenders! Does the spray suction hose work better or worse than the vevo? As always, great viewing. Thanks.

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@bigmoustacheal3295 I expect that the ultrasonic works better?? I have put some small plastics in the vevor, but it's a small one that will barely submerge a cylinder. For a hobby, I couldn't see yanking a chicken leg out of the kids' mouths just to buy something unnecessary. Aw heck, who am I kidding... I just like finding a way to do stuff cheaply, easily, and with stuff that's on-hand!! Sure hope you have a great new year!!

So this will be the stock numbers when you get a chance?

[@HayChaffandSawdust1]

@wrstew1272 Yes sir... just long enough for a run or two; then off to more mods. FYI: YT quarantined one of your comments the other day as "potentially offensive"; it happens from time to time while they see a word in the wrong context; I just have to hit the Okie Dokie button and answer... I accidentally deleted it. It wasn't nothing too important to you, but that's the reason I didn't answer. I fat fingered the mouse and accidentally removed instead of verifying that it was OK. Sorry about that!
