I was pretty amazed when I opened my Christmas present from my son this year, what appeared to be a NOS 360 saw. I said, "you've bought a NOS 360 online before, haven't you?" He said not like this one. He built this saw from parts, many of which we had in the shop. I didn't realize that a few weeks ago when I was rounding up all the parts to overhaul my old 350/360 Frankensaw, he was watching and rat-holeing parts for his new saw build at home. I wondered why he had taken such an interest in going through crates of parts all of a sudden. And he would tell me how many of this and how many of that he'd found for a 360. He had to order a few parts but we had most of the big ticket items. It's got the adjustable oiler, rim drive sprocket, hard mounts and a spike. He knows how I like them! He had to admit to me that the switch plate technically isn't correct as it's just flat and doesn't have the switch guard bent out on it. I said well that does it then, this saw is officially dubbed - Johnny. Everyone looked at me in confusion so I said, you know like the Johnny Cash one piece at a time car.
