Craftsman chainsaw 20 inch...

 Alton had a chainsaw that I haven't seen run in many years (if ever). I replaced a fuel line and found a plugged filter that when cleared allowed it to run again.  It is a Sears Craftsman model that is the same as a Poulan 3400. So if I need to order another part for it, those for the Poulan should interchange.

Finish mower...

 Despite popular opinion, I got the finish mower going. It was a longish process that progressed in spurts over the past 3 years. The rebuild of the spindle in the photo was the pivotal step. Then finding a way to get the belt routed despite not having all the parts. Now I may still have to add a second idle pulley but time will tell. Maybe it will work well enough to mow the grass at the old house.
