I don't know what to say about the gtg that hasn't already been said. I want to first off thank our hosts and their support crew for all they did for us neanderthals! Hosting this many people at a GTG is no small feat. Secondly I'd like to congradulate Randy and Andre on winning the build off(s). Not only are they amazing builders, more importantly, they're first class men. The North vs. South vs. East vs. West nicest guys competition was a lot more difficult ot judge but it ended in a dead tie. The smiling, hand shaking and comradery hit an all time high. I was so glad to finally meet everybody I hadn't yet met and so glad to see those I had met again. I hope this motivates those reading this and wondering "should I make the trip" to get to one of these. To sum it all up, I was welcomed by amazing hosts to a place where I smiled, met great people, saw old friends, ran great saws, watched exciting competitions, ate well, shot trap (BTW Thanks TreeMonkey for letting me shoot that Cynergy) and fell in love with a beautiful girl named Harley.
. Was it the Princess saw?
The 10CCs comment just kinda threw me off :msp_confused:. 
Stuff happens when you're modding equipment. I was on my home from Nik's shop when it donned on me what it was. The very first time we cut a Husky base, we didn't cut the ears at all. On that saw, it tied the saw up on the bench, so we knew we had a problem. For some reason, this one didn't get cut enough, not sure how that happened. The cylinder won't even set flush on the case. Even with a gasket, the ears are at least .008" too long. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to feel on the bench this time. It would only interfere when it got hot. All of the transfer was on the bottom of the intake skirt. The cylinder will litterly clean up perfectly. There is nothing above the intake port. A new piston, and it will be 100% as good as new! I used a snap guage and mic, and there is 0 deflection in those ear. It's not hurt at all.
