Meat and taters. Never gets old.

TreeMonkey does say he gets more out of a 462. Might not hurt to reach out to him before you buy a saw. RipSaw probably does a fair job with a 500i, but you won’t know until you run one. They’re trying to be a legit business but they’re deep in the internet marketing world and trying to add...

Watcha gonna run that on?

I haven’t done a 350 jug, but it looks extremely similar to 359. I hate the sharp edges at the bottom of the lowers. I smooth those top and bottom. You can take out the whole base back to the gasket, but it adds a lot of case volume. If you keep your intake high that’s probably okay. Some...

Just a few that were laying around: This was supposed to be a teapot, but I didn’t get it assembled before it dried. Some shot glasses from various firings. A medium and a small mug, the right one is soda fired. A couple bowls from the last firing.

My biggest issue with my cheapo is that the last 3cm is rigid, so it doesn’t fit around corners well at all. If the end was moldable to hook into a port I would use it more. Still pretty great for checking transfer timing, chamfers etc.

I think it was $20 shipped. The light is almost as useful as the camera. Here’s a photo I took with it. That’s a 2511 cylinder. Very small.

I have a junk UseePlus that I got off ebay for cheap. It does what I need but the resolution isn’t great.

How is getting to that second bar nut with the wrap?

How different are 910s from 920 and 930? Those are wonderful saws.

261 is more lock prone than many other saws. I’m not sure where in the fuel system the problem lies, but my suspicion is the metering side or the main jet of the carb. It’s interesting you are getting zero start. Usually a vapor locked saw will struggle a bit. If you feel like...

We have consistent issues with 261 (non-mtronic) when using winterized fuel in warmer weather. Winterized fuel has additives that cause the fuel to vaporize at a lower temperature. The fuel in the lines and carb turns to gas and inhibits flow of liquid (vapor lock). I’m not saying this is your...

I hate proprietary bearings.

Bump. Truly excellent saws.
