McCulloch Pro Mac 700 Chainsaw

[MrFramerman]

700s are good saws, the two i ran back in the day were screamers

[r36psyclown]

Very nice job man!!! You have a lot of pride in your work and love of the old craftsmanship, unlike the plastic garbage they put out today. I recently purchased a McCulloch Super pro 81s, 82cc's of raw power, going to pick up a 610 pro tomorrow, just needs a carb rebuild.

[MrPuch78]

Dont listen to these people. I saw it on the thumbnail and went wow. I watched the video and saw that you put alot of work into this. Most of these jelous people wouldnt know how to do this. You wanted something unique and you got it. really cool saw there man.

[comedybenj]

i want one of these to kill my enemies

[mustie1]

nice amount of pride you put in that, good job

[junkman6261]

@mustie1 thanks

[1farmboy2]

Great job, I have used this same for three decades. It was a very well made saw. It should be yellow.

[Boner308]

sweet looking saw dude. I was wondering if you had to fix/change the timing on the saw? I have a Pro Mac 700 that needs fixing up but the pullstart/timing wheel has come off the shaft and wont stay on. Did you have this problem or do you know how to reattach it and in the right place

Also, When you shine up the bar real nice, some pine strip flames in the green would look sweet, but maybe thats just me

Cheers Brad

OK. Call me a purist snob; but Macs are Yellow. Sometimes Black. Sometimes Yellow AND Black, but never green. Great way to lose it in the brush, though. Aside from that; fantastic work, man! It's always a lot of fun to replace dollars with elbow grease and know-how. I applaud you. These pigs can throw some serious chips and are built with a quality that is unapproachable ($) by the common man, these days. Be safe.

@jerkmcgerkin hi, i guess the first four letters says it all about you. Then again, maybe not, that's why we are all entitled to our own opinions.  Had I wanted a yellow Mac, then I would have just changed the fuel line and rebuilt the carb and called it quits. I wanted something unique. Anyway, thanks for your comment and opinion.

[jerkmcgerkin]

@junkman6261 Hey! I take back all those nice things I said! Geez. Grow a sense o' humor. It may have been a little presumptive to criticize your color choice, but I didn't call names!

[JONSEREDdotWS]

very good job.

[MrRmh3481]

Hi J/M,

Beautiful job. Noticed one thing, the size of the fuel filter that your using is incorrect for the size engine. Walbro makes two sized filters. The short cotton is the trimmer filter whereas you want the long one. The reason is the delivery hole in the filter is too small to support the demands of the engine on a long wot cut. I scuffed a big Husky not knowing this and am passing the info along hoping to help you avoid the same problem.

why not yellow?

[th19940305]

why not buy a new saw and save a bunch of time and money?

[junkman6261]

@th19940305 poor guy, you'll never understand. Thing is I have less than $40 invested in this saw.

[geoff390]

@th19940305 Hahah this thing will blow the ass out of anything unless your spending major dollers like over 500bux!! Plus like he siad he only spent 40 bux

[ronaldwmartinson1]

Great Job!! Take that old bar and sand it with coarse sandpaper and gradually work up to finer paper until it is shiny then apply gun bluing. Your saw will look perfect

[junkman6261]

Hey... that's a great and inexpensive Idea! I never thought of doing that, I was thinking of chroming it but that would stand out too much. I think I will give it a try and post a new vid of it running. Thanks.

[pimpinpenz]

good job!

[leemerson76]

Very nice. Excellent work. Looks great! What have you cut down with it?

[junkman6261]

Nothing yet but hopefully will soon and will make a video of it.

[carrabec99]

[phindele]

Good job Junkman6261.

[junkman6261]

Thanks!!!

[swabbster3]

nice job

[timberfeller6]

These came with Mc branded WINDSOR bars. Nice bars...

[junkman6261]

Cool. The bar on this saw I bought about 10 years ago to put on another McCulloch saw that I no longer have. Is this a windsor bar? I don't know. Thanks for the coment.

[Asymair95]

I've done a few restorations on Mac saws and quickly learned not to paint the inside of the air box area. Have you had problems with the gas eating the paint yet?

[junkman6261]

I havent put gas in it yet because I have a few things left to do. I did not paint the inside of the fuel tank though.

[o56kid]

rollomatic is a stihl trademark...

[junkman6261]

Thanks. Must have gotten em mixed up in my head. I once had a still MS460.

[dubwiseselecta1]

Cool Saw & good work..I just bought a mac 700 at the swap meet today for $65 with the same bar. Pretty clean & good running saw.

[junkman6261]
