That's a good topic for discussion......and should be kicked around.
Just like anyone doing anything......the more I do, the better I get.
The first one I did didn't really suit me. I bought another jug and redid it. That made two I ported. The third one I did for free. Remember the Chitty Avatar Raffle?
By the time I got to the fourth one I was pretty sure of exactly what I wanted to do. That's when I started using epoxy in the intake. Since then I've just been varying the timing numbers a degree or two so I can dial it in just so.
The saws I did four years ago are no where near as strong as the saws I'm building today. Does that mean they are weak, or slow? Not at all.......but they are different.
When the MS261C first came out I did the first one for free. I ended up getting well over a 40% gain in cut speed. Yet I still tweaked that recipe over the next dozen or so saws.....
We all have to start somewhere.

I've been working for myself since I was 19. I've had a few "jobs" up never anything that lasted.......I always ended up going back out on my own. Over the years I've learned that people want to know that the person they hire to do a job is completely transparent. If you want people to trust you you have to tell it like it is.......good, bad, and sometimes ugly.
Of course the saws will get better and better when a new model comes out........but if I build you a turd, I will make it right.

Might look similar, but NOT THE SAME. Pecan is a close relative to hickory and a very dense hardwoood. Nothing like Cherry for cutting, splitting or burning.

I remember a guy that ran around with my dad........had 13 1/2 tattooed on his arm. I asked him.......hey what's that 13 1/2 mean. He said "Well you know son, you go to court........you got 12 jurors, one judge, and a 1/2 ass chance".
