  • Incredible restoration of an old Sthil 08s chainsaw, a model that was very successful due to its low maintenance and good power. I was very happy to give new life to this machine, as I used one of these for several years in my youth. Many thanks to everyone who will watch the video.

    Стара добра 08S. Мој отац је купио једну такву средином 70их. Половну. Била је тешка за руковање али поуздана и издржљива. Касније смо купили нову, познате марке и користили обе, истивремено. Нова се распала после 15так година. Оца више нема од 2013. а 08S се , вероватно, налази у некој остави.

    That old chainsaw had all the indications of very little use or rebuild prior to neglect. The chain sprocket had almost no wear as did the teeth on the chain. Also the piston and cylinder bore were very little worn. Almost like it was bought for one job then stuck away for years........... although the handle and trigger say it had quite a bit of use. Anyway you did a marvellous job restoring it and the way it ran made me smile. Well done.

    On a safety note, *always* wrap your thumb around the front handle when you're running the saw. Opposing your thumb to the rest of your fingers will prevent the saw from slipping out of your grip and towards you if it ever kicks back. Nice work!
