Restoration of an Old Tired Stihl Chainsaw

[@royfrady8219]

I'm impressed for many reasons. First, that was one of the most well-used chainsaws I have ever seen and with the most improvised repairs I have ever seen. Then the masterful repair process was simply amazing. I truly expected the replacement of most of the external components, including the muffler. I was very impressed and will save this to review when working on my own Stihls. Very well done.

What to say German quality 🎉🎉🎉❤❤

​​@@AskaniyaNovaForever Aufmerksamkeit! What say German Prices!!! Pro' grade: $700 to over 1000 U.S. when new!

That has got to be the most unique and amazing rebuilding/repair/refurbishing effort I've ever seen on anything. I hope it stays with you for many years to come. Things are only thrown away when you just don't want to put in the efforts to make them work again... Bravo sir, Bravo!

The Stihl 051 is a beast of a saw and will wear out the strongest of men! Well done!!

[@ENERGIJABURAN]

Здравствуйте. Я впервые вижу такую модель. Наверное тяжёлая. Из хлама сделать новый инструмент это мастерство. Приятно давать вторую жизнь вещам особенно инструменту. Вы молодец. Когда то и я так же собирал свой MS361 в моём случае это была груда грязных в мазуте запчастей из которых нужно было выбрать что то стоящее. Кое что пришлось докупить. Но так приятно было собирать уже чистые и новые детали, но больше радости было когда она завелась, пришлось регулировать карбюратор, он был расстроен. Но теперь эта бензопила приносит больше радости чем та которую купил бы.

I don’t know what I’m more impressed with the rebuild or the fact he knew how to put 1000 pieces back together. I’d love to have this as a show piece. For sale?!?!

Well actually for most products like this, especially contractor grade tools, plans and blueprints are available, often included with the tool, or even more likely - online.

[@arcticgunguy5382]

We only see a part of the video in an edited format. They have HOURS of video at their disposal to go back and review if they can't remember how it came apart in the first place.

[@ArcheryDad2024]

Man, you can tell how much that saw was loved. It reminds me of my Dad's old Farm Boss, taped up & rigged and still fires up & cuts like no ones business. This restoration was amazing, doesn't even look like the same saw. Great job

[@gregb76]

Mr. Gamb so nice to see when you fix the old chain saws you don't mind getting new parts like bars and chains it's refreshing to see. Great job it looks new. 1st crank two thumbs up and picked a nice piece of wood to cut instead of junk.

[@kentmarsh6442]

[@metiscus]

​@@kentmarsh6442you can see that he uses solder as a sort of spot weld and then follows up with brazing rod once everything is set.

Excellent job, I just rebuild an 075, I wonder where you found the chain brake mechanism. Regards Dorin

[@dn0682]

Are you in Germany located? Are the chain brake anywhere available there ? If you can give me a link where to buy will be great. Thank you.

[@einfachsepp6940]

​@@dn0682 Hi, I come from Germany and can tell you that the parts for the 075 are scarce, especially something like the chain brake is difficult to get. Occasionally you can get something in one or two online shops, but these are mostly just individual parts, when I was there 2 or 3 years ago, when I rebuilt the chain brake on mine, I even got parts from the USA and France. As far as I know, Stihl has a 20-year spare parts guarantee, at least that's the case here, but unfortunately the 075 is now no longer available. Greetings go out ^^
