I gotta share something here........
We all like to think that we are building saws that are the strongest, fastest, meanest, etc.....
I have another consideration. After all, I just build saws for work.
Safety.
The days of getting every ounce of power I can find out of the work saws I build are pretty much over......and have been for a while now.
That's not something I really post about, but there it is. Can I make a saw that's a little faster? Oh yeah......I call those "extra spicy".
Here's the thing though.......a guy starts the backcut on a heavy head leaner.......the ultra high compression finely tuned "on the edge" machine in his hands decides to take a dump......
That's a bad day.
I still build the "extra spicy" saws for guys that want a "GTG" saw. But my true work saws are a little different. Toned down a wee bit....
These days I'm looking at ways to make them perform at least 30% better than stock, while keeping the unit as quiet as possible. Fuel economy is also a consideration, but most importantly is the unit's dependability.
Just keeping it real.......
