At Jokers GTG back in '05 I got to meet John. He brought with him an 044 Frankensaw he called it made from a bunch of old 044 carcasses. He told me he flat filed a millimeter off the top of the exhaust port and a millimeter off the intake side of the piston skirt. I did three cuts (down-up-down) in a decent sized poplar log in about 5 seconds. Never cut with a saw that fast in my life. He was a very nice guy, very humble, very funny and it was a pleasure to get to meet him.
We were just talking about that 44 in my CR group before he passed. He handed me the saw to run at a gtg here around that time frame too.
We nicknamed it boobjob and horserasp.
I was lucky enough to meet him a few times.
John and Al at that gtg here.

John = Lol, that 044 was known as my Boob Job by all my detractors. It was fast though.
That was the same 044 Kevin. I remember getting pounded like a cheap steak when I built it.
I'm living proof that any hort wanker can build a saw. Lol

I would love to see how the Tilly was configured. I have heard of it but never seen one.
