Although I have seen some accessories with the Tiny Tigers that I believe were original to them, those are most likely nice homemade leads for charging batteries.

I have everything that you need...
-
Absolutely keep it. I don't really see a problem with it at all.
-
I wish these resources were available when I was in the heyday of collecting...

What about something like this in the correct size? https://intothewind.com/gray-caps-337-350-inch-spars.html

Understood that it was considered junk, kinda like Chinese today, but there is a growing enthusiasm towards earlier Japanese items, especially the tin lithograph toys. I pick up old Japanese transistor radios (pre 1970) occasionally, and it amazes me that 90% of the time, I stick a 9 volt in the darn thing and it sounds like new! The ones that don't wok are corroded and were not stored correctly. And some of these go for big bucks!
-
Wow, and those things are going for big bucks! The more Japanese things that I see like this, makes me think that they are the best engineers in the world. After all, I'm on my 14th Toyota truck since 1985 and have never taken one back to a dealer due to mechanical failure. The build quality is next to nothing. Don't get me wrong, I love vintage American stuff, but have you ever seen the guts of a mid 1970's high end Pioneer stereo?
-
Not sure why they sold so many. I can't imagine trying to power two or three light bulbs with all of the noise and smoke!
-
So, you have him covered?

-
Looks like he paid 250. Is yours for sale, minus the cat?

Yeah, he's 19 now and going to college to be a mechanical engineer with a minor in engineering management! Proud of my boy, but they grow up too fast!

Well, you have to understand that I have taught Wallfish almost everything that he knows! Actually, we've done great favors for each other. My thought process was to buy the best that I could afford. In just about every collecting type hobby, the best examples are more likely to hold their value. Not to mention, I was competing against less vultures!
One other thing that I'd like to say, it's great to see newcomers inject some interest on the forum. This actually helps create more interest. And then to have the local guru, well, across the pond, makes it even better!

Here’s my version. Pretty much unused.

Cool little home made stand. In 25 years, people will be wondering why and what this one of a kind set up was for.
-
The fuel tank vent has been the problem many times for me. I always try to run it with the fuel cap loose.
-
I don't know, that color palette of those Burlington socks are very attractive! Nice find.

-
Will have to dig it out. Maybe this weekend.
-
Yeah, after looking at your photos, the tan spare parts were quite a bit lighter in shade. That's definitely an oddball. My favorite and very rare saw is all chrome with the later style starter.
-
My least favorite thing to work on with these....
-
I had some NOS parts for the Orline saw that were tan. Actually most of them were. It could be that this one was built from replacement parts.
-
Hobby stores have 3’ lengths of different gauge rod. Find the right one and you have 3 lifetimes worth.
-
Totally agree with locking them. Will send them to you for here on out! Thanks
