Mastermind Meets The Stihl 090AV

[hseII]

I think I may have derailed Randy's build thread. Sorry, Randy.

Moobacycle wouldn't know what to do with an on track thread, just like the rest of us.

I'm not sure for 404. Have to look at the cannon catalog.

I think this one will do until we found a better option

Yes it would.

I'm just used to the endless, off topic oil thread. Hate to clutter up a good build thread.

He is professional enough to understand that we also like talking about things loosely related to saws in general.

Hey Moobsy,
How are your roller bearings?

Are you healed?

I thought it was a pulled flyball governor...

The 090AV the same as this one mm's working on stopped being sold here about 7 years ago. The 070 became the MS 720 which is still being made, example bellow. Never been ran, only taken out of the box for this now sits on my shelf with a brand new 200t and 660 magnum

October 14' at our wedding shocked a few people when I rocked up to our wedding with a chainsaw... Well some where most where half expecting it

I am getting married here in a couple months and planned on doing this. I have also seen people use an axe, or maul, but how many cc's is a maul... pfttt f that. I want cc's at my wedding. Already sent the invitations to Husqvarna and Stihl. We'll see which one RSVPs

This is pretty much the after party.

Hey,
What's the dl on 404" for a 50"?

140 dl

I am looking at buying a 56" bar next month. That's 160 dl[emoji37]

This saw is one runnin sumbitch. I can't remember which size the Canon bar is but it's something like 8 foot.
I had the pleasure of putting it in a 6 foot fir log yesterday. Boy talk about tons and tons of power at a very nice rpm level.
Don (sawfun) also has a gear drive 090 that gives new meaning to the term bottom end torque.
I set my camera up to video record both saws but the stupid thing decided to die on me half way through the first saw which was the G, so I didn't get a video of the av from this thread. Though I'm betting someone else did.

That direct drive 090 AV now has the power of a stock 66mm 137cc 090 geardrive. Very few wories about getting easily stuck in that pitchy 72" log. Way more saw than a well ported 088 for sure. Thanks Randy.

 

[Mastermind]

Glad you like it Don. Those big saws are easy to work on, but tough to really test. Big thanks to you and Jim for the feedback.

8ft bar way to go

I've been a proponent of case compression for a long time. Looks like I'm not the only one.

Would the 090 benefit from more case compression with crankstuffers?

Good question.

You'll need to make some and do some research.....

Years ago someone (I ferget who it was or what forum) I think he had komatsu in his name. He made some fir a 288 I think. Do you remember what he used to make his?

Most of the time they're made with a ring machined to fit over the counterweights, and then filled with epoxy.

That now racers did it with the Mcculloch Kart motors.

I believe hard anodizing works as well. I forget what the coating is on top fuel pistons, I think it was anodizing as they were an olive green. There is a coating used by Nasa and others that when applied to metal, feels oily but is in fact bone dry. I remember a few years back a premium rifle maker put this on his rifle bolts.

Molybdenum Disulfide. AKA 'moly'. Used a lot in high pressure rounds and to preserve the barrel life from high volume shooting. I also used it on my bolt. Amazing stuff.

The 6mmBR, second from the left next to the 9mm, is a moly coated bullet I used for varminting and benchrest back stateside. I have placed second in the Denton club matches using that set up.

I once saw a specialty rifle advertised that had the bolt coated with a special material used for lubrication in the Hubble Telescope. It felt oily when you touched the surface, however, when you pulled your fingers away they were dry as a bone.

An old friend of mine polished the mirrors for Hubble. Some wild stuff went it that thing. Some cool stuff was used around these big aerospace builders here back in the eights and nineties. I'd bet top fuel borrowed a lot from them and the air force.
