A vid or that saw s actually a really nice parts saw IMO.
Chris
Yeah. Yeah. The only video camera that I have is on my phone and it doesn't have a light. I will try and get one tomorrow. I did check the compression again after it cooled completely off and it's up to 170psi, up another 10psi in only a 5 minute run.
Oh and I found out today that 8mm wires make a better replacement because they fit tighter in the coils.
I wish that I had one of those aftermarket west coast toothy things to put on it though. The stock one seems a little small.
I glad to hear you're pleased. Let us know when you get that bar dirty. It is a not custom piece but my SP81E from the great NW came with a large MAC factory dawg* drilled to fit.

*Same as the left spike on your 125.
Sorry, just noticed that it looks like your left spike has been clipped, too. Anyway, you get the point that you can use a full size factory spike if you drill a new screw hole. Ron
If I'm asking too many questions just tell me to take a hike. How did your final exhaust port compare in shape and size to the inlet of the muffler? Thanks, Ron

They aren't clipped. It's just some of my horrible photoshop skills. I could use one like that if I had one. Now that you mention it, I think that I have the perfect one for it in my in-laws basement. I will have to look for it tomorrow.
No, you're not asking too many questions. I like the attention. The stock exhaust was tapered quite a bit from the cylinder wall out to the muffler. The muffler port was actually bigger than the exhaust port itself. So I didn't change that at all. Just removed all the carbon build up.
Thanks. Ron

Here is a short video for those that can't wait for me to make one cutting.

Mitch, looks like you got that thing running right.
I gotta get me one of them one day.
Nice work brother.

Thanks! It will probably still need soem fine tuning once I get to cutting with it, but I'm happy with it so far.

Well I didn't get to do any cutting at the in-laws this weekend because my FIL was sick. But, I did get to take the 81 over to Igpoe's this evening and make a few cuts on one of his logs.

Sounds good. What are you running a 7 pin or a 8 pin sprocket? Ron

It's a 7, but I think that it would pull an 8. I'll have to try it.
I'm planning to set up a 3/8 24" bar PM800 with an 8 pin and a .404 32" with a 7 pin. I know you can bury them with a 3/8 28" with a 7 pin. Can't wait to get released to saw again. Ron

That's a cool pic randy. What year was that?
You can tell the saw is almost new and they came out with them for one year only in the early fifties. :msp_rolleyes:

Early '80s, I was a weekend logger at the time, I drove trucks 4 ten hour days, then logged for three days.
