I normally use cut offs that a friend gives me. They would be left in the woods anyway.

The straight grain makes it more consistent.
Good idea

I mill but not with a saw.
I'd like to saw more lumber but wood to test saws in is more important,unless it's a nice log then I still won't saw it,I'll sell it to the grade man. Lol
The band mill rarely gets used unfortunately

Looking strong J !
My first 288XP to port.
How does it compare to the 395?
It's been way too long since I ran one. It definitely has grunt.

Both ported equally the 395 should be a good bit ahead.

That's my saw I've been tinkering with,it's just woods ported and has all of its oe parts.
185lb of compression also.
What were the stock numbers on the 288?

I don't know,Brad didn't tell me. Lol
I didn't degree it until after the machine work. I took about .015" out of the squishband to clean it up. I then turned a .035" popup on the piston. That required dropping the jug about .050". Compression is now 200 PSI. After machine work, the port timing was 102/118-119/80. After porting it was 100/118/80. I raised the exhaust just a couple degrees to give it a little more blowdown. I was surprised how short it was from the factory. The transfers came up a degree or less jut from cleaning them up and working them over.
Was referring to the stock b/s & hp
