Ah, so that's it. Back in my neo-neophite days, I once built an XPW w/ a spanky new 375K crank, same issue. I plugged it. Damn, that thing had some wicked compression. Now I'll plug that rascal on the 3120 I just built

One, and a bit.

Huh, Just watched some of that Guilty of Treeson, Inbred Jed stuff, and got to thinking about D D Dent. I reckon you know you're getting old when you realize someone that taught you something, when you were young & dumb, passes on. Lucky enough to have attended one of his workshops, back in the...

Anybody know anyone building pop up pistons for a 395? Some guy got me into building him a couple saws hotter than I normally do.

In defense of Meteor, Having not known Spike, I've found Meteor jugs to be cheaper and more readily available, especially for the 2171/372's, of which I build about 12, a year, or so. In particular, I can't often find the 503 62 64 73's for less then a couple hundred. The 503 93 93 72's are...

Wow, thanks

In building a 357, what are folks' experience with Meteor ports from 46/47 mm? Still stick with the 46, as the ports are reflective of OEM, or the 47 is as hot. Or, are the ports for both not as hot as the OEM 46?

Thanks! I come back from a good and successful elk hunt to virtual presents, who could ask for more?

Thanks!

Heh, Kevin, I just sold you one.

It's just a matter of doing things backwards. Kind of like when my friend Sean Healan and his band plays at the Cowgirl, I see that jar there and spit in it, look again and see that it said "tips", not "spit" Dyslexia does have its advantages.

Heh, on another venue I took a rash of it for the verbosity of the Craig's add. Ah the tribulations!

Heh, do you treat saws like you treat poor, old, wee newbees? That'd certainly void the guarantee.

Well that's not very helpful Señor Pescado. Abuse is your only gear? Say something nice and helpful? What works?

The 394 is gone, as is the 372 X-Torq and the 455. Otherwise descriptions and prices are on santa fe, NM craigs as "My best batch of Swedes" If something looks yummy, let me know. They're all kind'a sweet. Most are from split case/new bearings. prices from around $400-$700, willing to take...

Heh, well, that was fun. Chasing down all the air leaks in that 49sp. Especially that phhht!phhhttt! that came from the oiler adjustment screw. Chucked in an o ring or two and solved that. Also the manifold to the jug, darn, that's a lot of little screws. A guess the guy who threw in the jug &...

Thanks, though I'm certain there's a complex associated with it that could require treatment.

I found seals easily enough online, could have gone down to 'Burque to the bearing store, but that'd be more after petrol or fuel. Truth be told, I'm happy learning these older, pre electrolux saws, and fighting the madness and searching the boxes, over working on a (sits) stihl, anyday...

Yep, I came into logging a couple years later, with 920's, but I got no problem with the plastics, or electrolux and back again to husqy. 's

Rightee oh, Note to self, picture of said saw, turn it, pop the muff. And blow it off.... Forgive me if I don't have any pics or info for you tomorrow, I've got a hot, sure thing date with a smoking señorita half my age tonight. PM me, tomorrow, because I'm not going to be with it. I think much...
