After all of this research and the videos I have watched I'm thinking I must add something from each to my collection.
With so many builders on here its hard to choose. Good thing I am wanting to expand my saw collection.
OK guys I want to thank everyone for the info. I am still on the learning curve on saw building. Here is what I have so far as pretty general building practices:
Woods Porting
Cut Squish ring?( Not sure what that does or if its part of some other process.)
Higher RPM coil (?) (What RPM right...
Its a given I will have it built and make it all the monster it can be. My goal is to get this thing back and be blown away by it. I'm trying to learn how far it can be taken and still be able to earn its cost back on the job as well as taking some extra green from any Buddy's that like to rag...

I suspect if the equipment hasn't hit any nearby pawn shops or Craigslist or doesn't shortly it is definitely in the hands of somebody making money with it. I ran a tree service for several years and have put the word out to all of the guys I know. I also know a lot of local loggers that are...
We hope the cameras will help for now giving complete coverage of our station inside and out. Its just sickening that we have to utilize funds for that which should be going to firefighting equipment.
I do have the serial numbers. Both of the STIHL items also had well hidden markings as well as...
My first thought is to give the perp a ride to the LEO station and run them up the flag pole by their ankles while the boys in brown enjoy their donuts.
I am a Vol. Fire Chief in a department that operates on a budget that barely affords to operate. Recently we had a near new MS 461 saw, BR600 blower and a 8hp Honda portable pump disappear from within our station. It takes a low life scum bag to steal but from a VFD that busts its rear to serve...
