Husky 61.5cc conversion
Well finally got the crankcase sawed out of the chainsaw :O( Painted the case red and mounted the jug. Looks pretty good, weighs 3lb 8oz bare. My question is concerning the prop adapter. I have a metal lathe but not much experience with it. I am assuming the best solution is to make an adapter to fit the taper and internally threaded on the engine side and internally threaded on the prop side to accept a 3/8x24 shaft. The only other way I see to do it, is like a G23. Will use the chain side shaft to mount sensor ring. Any other ideas or comments? Good luck, red

The mount is a hanger 9 mount. I got it from a friend,i think it's the largest mount you can get. I made the muffler,the prop hub and the carb mount.
Thanks

Haven't done a thing to it since removing from saw. Have other projects going and will get back to this when I get a plane that can use it. My current project is 73" Extra and am thinking of using a 45cc Tartan twin I got recently, or a 33cc Echo. Which would you use? red
