Meh



It's pretty wide.....and working saws are us....so I intend to keep the bottom ring.

I would love to move the pin though.



I bet you are right, and why I'll just epoxy one jug to test that theory.



I'm not planning on leaving the exhaust that low.....but 105° is as high as I "think" it really needs to go. But...to test its reaction to increased blowdown, I'll be doing 102° on one of them.




Yep....not a lot of meat above the port. Gotta remember the 661 though. 56mm bore. I take the exhaust way up on that saw. It loves blowdown.



Well.....I do.



They ain't playing around. Stihl has been doing their R&D.





Worse time for me to pick to do a thread fellas. I was up most of the night coughing. I'm not feeling so sporty today.
Might be a good time for a little rest my friend and just chill out for the weekend

Really good.

Power is out. Bad storms coming. Probably gonna hunker down.
It's just hitting us here in Maury county. Pretty rough too. Still have power and all though which is rare. Need to be working on knives but trying to stay aware of what's going on here for now.

My wife just got over an ordeal with bronchitis. She had to do inhaler and nebulizer treatments.

We're all doomed to die from some illness that has mutated into something antibiotics won't touch.

Already exists. MRSA is very resilient to antibiotics and treatment :-(

My wife has MRSA. When she had her knee replacement surgery, the doc said about 80% of people swabbed for it in his area are positive. He thinks we will eventually build up an immunity to it.
