I've got some pics loading to Photobucket.

I've done these saws so many different ways it ain't funny. Windowed piston, non-windowed ......raise the cylinder walls, don't raise em. Popups, cut squish, different pistons, AM jugs, XPW jugs, XP jugs........I like to think I'm building a stout 372 these day with all the different stuff I've tried but......hell who really knows.

The 372 is a saw that I think will run just as well with a popup......but I still cut the squish band.



This is the XPW jug......it's just roughed in right now. I still have quite a lot of slicking up to do.

On the XPW I cut .060 from the squish band and set the squish clearance at .024. That yields about 190psi at my elevation.
