Put the 365 back together today with a cheap piston I bought from a seller in Singapore, like $10.99 with free shipping cheap......... The piston actually turned out to be very nice and I was even able to use the oem wrist pin and clips. I had originally thought this one could have had an air leak but I later found the high side needle set at only 3/4 turn out, I now have it at 1.5 turns out and it is 4 stroking nicely. Unfortunately the cleaner I used caused some paint damage to the recoil and clutch covers, no more of that Blue Wolf cleaner for me.

weather?

David says we shouldn't be concerned so much about the forecast of passing storms as there are buildings similar to pole barns or open sheds that we and saws can duck into if needed. Just thought I'd throw that note into the mix.

One final test-fire, tonight after work, and in the truck they go. I even found a neat trick for the bogging MS170, that does not involve an adjustable carb. It seems to work on mine, i will share it with anyone interested at the GTG. SAWS. check. Fuel, check. bar lube, check. extra recoil rope......check lol

what time are we starting?

The official starting time is 10AM, but several will be there well before that.
Sawmandave has been very busy setting up the wood and making the on-site preparations, therefore too busy to post here.
He says to inform everyone there is a white tractor-trailer (International) with a low-boy trailer on one side of the driveway bearing the name J&J Logging. On the opposite side of the driveway is a homemade cardboard sign reading: GTG
Event is at: 10900 Nash Rd., Chesterfield, Va. 23838
