[AT] Off Topic, Mall Two Man Saw Parts

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

Will, sounds like you have a parts saw on your hands. You may be better off 
to buy another saw and use yours for parts. I don't know of very many 
"stashes" of parts for old saws. I think Malls are notorious for having the 
coil to go bad. I bought one a few years back that was used in certain 
outboard engines as well. I'm pretty sure I was working on a Mall at that 
time, possibly a 7? Our collection topped out around 10 2 man saws and 30 or 
so one-man saws. Now they just collect dust as I don't have time to "play" 
with them. Here is a couple links to try for information. The second link is 
for a fellow named Marshall Trover, he did have (and may still have) one of 
the largest collections in the world. Also, if you go on Smokestack, there 
is a chainsaw collectors forum.

By the way, when you talk to fellows on the West Coast about 2-man saws, 
prepare to be laughed at regarding how small the saws here are. A 3 foot 
blade to them is for cutting kindling.


Here is a chainsaw collectors website;

This link is for a fellow on the west coast that helped me out with parts 
for a Titan saw;

Hello,


I'm helping a friend repair his Mall two many chainsaw. Its a Mall Model 6.



Moisture got down into the crankcase and burst the block. So, I need the 
main housing for sure. Also need crankshaft bearings and probably connecting 
rod kit.



Does anybody know of a good used parts source?



Thanks,



Will

SE PA.
