Chainsaw Repair

Just saving pics of a Helsel built saw that was sold to a Canadian and then later sold to Dan Duncan R.I.P. from KY.   After Dan set for 6 years or so and has had the carb fiddled with and needs some work.   

Dan had piped chromed right before passing.

Think the saw had then went to MO and now sold again.     Talked with Cliff and put new owner in touch with him to maybe get saw straightened back out.

I cant figure the handle out either, if something is cut there or what. 

Cliff confirmed it is one of his saws already.  Early one built for a Canadian.

I have a over the wood video of it down south but dont know how to post it here.  Showed it to Cliff.   
Before being sold to guy that just bought it.

Here is Dan running it before he passed and getting my azz whooped.  I started my saw on idle as it was first time I raced it that day.  Difference was 1st and 5th place runs. Looks like 10 miles. 

Thinking it was 10x10 yellow poplar  Murray KY

Yeah dont know whats going on with handle.  Looking at pic closer, it maybe just something got on pic right there. 

Figured out how to move video from FB to HD to utube.

Here is over wood video  I was talking about

But know what you mean about the handle angles.
I know mine I could balance with my middle finger and she was square hanging. He did a great job on the balancing with pipe and handle.   

That yellow tape was perfect balance point.
