Have a 600d homelite chain saw that needs a chain. Have anyone of you heard of the 600d?
It has a large D shaped hollow blade, made in the 50's. Would like some information on the saw. Might even sell it. It runs great.
 
Don't know about your Homelite, but the rail is what we called a Bow Saw. We used to cut pulp wood with them in the 50s. That size tree could pinch, and you could keep cutting on through, because it would pinch in the middle where it was open.
 
Hey bud, I got this info from Chainsaw Corner. pretty good stuff.
