Should be Danny.

i guess we will find in August

 

[Ironworker]

Absolutely. It continuously amazes me how many shops ignore that even for a basic, stock rebuild.

I have had an opportunity to run one of your 346s. (Numa's) How did you shrink a 372 engine down and cram it in there? Lol

One of those that he's porting is mine, I liked the first one he did so much that I got another, pound for pound that is the best saw out there or at least top two.

I've got a JRed 2152 that I am seriously considering turning into a 2153 and getting ported. This thread is not helping matters.

I also have a 2252... Should I just port that instead? What should I do?? Please don't say both!

 

[Mastermind]

You need medication.

Porting chainsaws is a silly idea.

Thanks for sharing Randy. Good to see how others do it and their ideas.

I guess my Mastermind 346 is OK...

Hell yeah it is!!!

Seems like I regonize the initials on one of them orangish saws. Thanks for going over details I sure wouldn't have thought of . I am betting I will be using a 50cc saw a lot more than I had .

Those Baileys coils seem to last. I bought one in 2010 that's still going as far as I know.

Randy, you're kinda the man.

Nuff sed.

 

[sawfun]

Yea, he kinda is, ain't he .

Speaking of the Devil being in the details.....

Jon recently mucked up the assembly of a MS660. He used the wrong oil pump drive, and had a washer under the clutch that should not have been in it.

I gave him a pass on that one........his blood pressure was way.....way out of spec. I had no idea he was in such shape. He knows how I am (a workaholic) and just kept standing at the bench to keep up.

When he told me he needed to go lay down one day......I knew something was wrong. He went to see the doc, and was told that he was on the verge of having a stroke.

They put him on two different blood pressure meds......and he's doing real well now.

Phuck the saws........he was about to freakin stroke out.

We got the saw back......and it's gonna be fixed up proper......no worries.

Hmm yeap heard vagasil was a band aid for wacked out blood pressure. that kinda reminds mme of the time i threw my back out on a railroad tie wall.i was on some raped ape pills i bummed from my uncle so i could get finished up.my helper mashed the end of his finger off and blood was squirtin everywhere.hell i couldnt feel his pain so i handed him a band aid and we started back filling.

Never had no blood pressure issues but I had a pretty bad tonsil infection a couple months back.

Went to the local McDoctor and the prescribed me some steroids.

I know they ain't the same as the muscle heads, but dang man, they had me messed up in some type of way.

Talk about a bull in a china shop, or a big man in a little mans body.

Felt like every organ in my body was running full steam ahead.

Knocked the crap outta that infection in no time.

You get a lot more than a ported saw

Thanks Randy! In the past I would bookmark this type of info. Today after a couple of forum problems, I print the thread to a pdf.
