John, are you talking about the Wright brand saw with the recplical blade? Did they make them for AC? ------------- "If at first you don't succeed, get a bigger hammer" Allis Express participant |

That was back when Poulan made a good saw. Todays Poulan isn't worth a dime, gave my last new Poulan which had about a hour use on it to my SIL and bought a Husky. ------------- 1957 WD45 dad's first AC 1968 one-seventy 1956 F40 Ferguson |

From pictures I've seen the AC reciprecating blade saw sure looks like a Wright. That all Dad had and it was nasty to run. My arms would shake so bad while cutting and for a hour afterwards. I would hope every one of them has been scrapped by now. After I left home and bought a CHAIN saw I couldn't believe I didn't refuse to use that Wright. |

 I was told it's same as old Wright 100? One Poulan collector say's he only knows of 3-4 them. I'll try to find some more pictures of it and post sometime. ------------- 5 different TT-10's,5 TT-18's Terra Tigers,B-10,2 B-207's,B-110,2 B-112's,HB-112,B-210,B-212,HB212,2 Scamp's & Homilite T-10.

Hi. What model is this unit? What would you use it for? Cutting tree limbs? (orchard pruning) Cutting hanging meat? ???? I tried to cut a piece of plywood and it just ripped a rough, irregular cut of about 5/8" in width. It feels like it weighs about a tonne.  Do not try to trim your fingernails, this picture is to show how big and aggressive the teeth are. (LOL)   What do you think this saw is worth? Ross.

The AC blade saw was built by polan based on the wright model 100 saw. My dad bought a wright back in the late 1950's He used it to fall trees and cut them to a size they could be lifted on a buzz saw table. The buzz saw was front mounted on a AC wc and could fold up a near the grill for transport. Bet that wright and buzz rig cut several thousands of cords into fire wood. I still have dads old Wright. hasn't ran in years because I need parts I have not been able to find. Al

Well our New 85 blade saw has a New Home! It's going to Mr. Mrotek in VA. And it will be right at Home with all his others! I will have a unhappy Poulan collector to deal with, as he wanted it to! But I feel its in the right place! ------------- 5 different TT-10's,5 TT-18's Terra Tigers,B-10,2 B-207's,B-110,2 B-112's,HB-112,B-210,B-212,HB212,2 Scamp's & Homilite T-10.

The old saws were much, much better. Like a lot of things if you think about it.  |
