    I think I have a lead on a used one at the local shop. Just go to get off the phone and get by there. I saw some replacement parts on ebay and amazon. But the model numbers were off by one number so I'm going to try the local shop first.

    They didn't have any of the plastic molded pieces. Just bars, spark plugs, filters, etc.

    It increases the tensile strength of the repair.

    Two questions:

    1. When is the last time you saw a 2 part epoxy with fiber in it?

    2. Where did you get your engineering degree from?

    Bonus:

    When is the last time you saw a fiberglass repair job that actually bonded to a plastic parent material?

    I'll hang up and listen.

    I would not want the handle of my chainsaw to come apart on me while making some awkward cut. Just buy the new handle for safety sake.

    Yeah bo, you need a degree to know shit.

    Ever heard of FRP??

    Fiberglass resin will not bond with plastic. A fiber reinforced plastic epoxy will, assuming it's a similar plastic to the parent material.

    Regardless, replacing is the better option in this case.

    You certainly need no degree, but the tensile strength comment was funny. As was your offense shown at my dig.

    I'm glad you see it daily.

    Pass along a fiber reinforced 2 part epoxy (preferably w/ a mixing tip syringe applicator). I'd love to keep that product in the back of my mind for future reference.

    Thanks.

    **Agreed that replacement is the best route.

    A lot of different models use the same parts so compare pictures and model parts numbers. I combined a Sears and a Poulan to repair a Sears saw. A lot of different brands are made by the same parent compamy . Might be a different color but will work just the same.

    Missed this. But big thanks for the offer.

    We pillaged some parts off an old saw and have it fixed right.

    Ebay for the parts. You may be surprised at what you will find on used parts. Have had similar experience and found just what I needed at a reasonable price for one of my stihls. I now see you have free parts offered already. I've spent a fair amount of $ at the Simpsonville ACE on chainsaw and power stuff. Hope I can get some free parts next time! LOL
