The Missouri Madness Chain Saw Starting System
as it was
Designed and Developed by
Tom Glaeser


Tom developed and perfected our starting systems over a period of time. It wasn't easy! But, it works like a charm. All four of our Nieuports are equipped with the system now and they work great. The images below to get some ideas on how he did it. If you need further ideas, check out Dick Lemon's photos of his chain saw starter on his Triplane below


Dick Lemons has posted a whole poop-load to great photos of the chain saw starting system he's got on his Fokker Triplane. Go to: www.mykitplane.com and then go to the "photo gallery" link on the left side of the screen. Then scroll down and find Chainsaw Starter, VW's, Baffles, Carb, Manifolds.

Dick's posted over a hundred photos there that are worth more than 10,000 words.
