075/076 build project for racing

[Adirondackstihl]

I did a 041 Super that I was real impressed with a few years ago. Jim, do you mind if I post a video of it?

Let's see it LDL

It was over four years ago.....wow, time flies.

I also have a spare cylinder to play around with an 041 super. I've been thinking of building a racer out of it.
I wonder if I can chop the bottom off a 076 cylinder and make it fit.

I'm going to try this set up later today when I get the chain touched up. Most events use 20" logs so hopefully this length doesn't put me at a disadvantage.View attachment 27393 View attachment 27394

I spent a good hour or two on the chain making it real nice and then realized it is a waste of time since it wasn't a brand new chain to start with....or the right one for that matter.
It is an .063 with drivers worn enough to ride smooth in the worn groove on an old .050 bar but the bar with the newer groove won't run it without potential damage.

How high is the exhaust on that one?

I'll need to put a degree wheel on it to see exactly where it is. I didn't have any specific number to go by so without that I can't give an accurate answer at the moment.
One thing I do remember specifically is that you could accurately measure the distance I raised it with a wooden kids ruler. Lol

I got the cannon bar set up for it today. It isn't a race bar but I suppose it's good enough. The log is the stump end so it's getting bigger by the cut. I had to remind myself that when comparing cut times in previous videos where I have it trimmed down to 20" because it is now 22".

I had a moment before dark to try out a 3/8 9 pin sprocket on a few nails.

Looks strong.

How the hell you were still able to cut after the nail hit is beyond me.

It's kinda funny watching you hit the nail or metal. We saw it and got to see the wtf was that look as you were wondering what just felt weird. Then you hit something else and we saw the wtf look again. I bet you watched the video after you saw your chain and put it all together lol strong saw tho. I'm impressed

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

I went and tried to find what it was but didn't find anything but a stain it left in the wood where I hit it. There are a few teeth jacked up but not near as bad as I expected.

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

I'm about to stuff a dirt bike carb on this thing. Maybe a WB or something.

Very strong running saw!! Cuts nicely!!

 

[smokey7]

I bet that setup would do well with a proper tuned pipe.

@Frank bierce I gotta admit I like your avatar. Everytime I see it I wonder if I'm on the right forum!

Looks a bit cumbersome for cookie cuttin, but looks fast!

Yeah it's a heavy sumbitch. Lol
The weight really does help keep it steady for smooth transitions, but the torque had my feet struggling for a grip. I need a 10 pin rim.

...or a set of corks if it weren't for the fact that I look way to sexy in them wearing camo shorts and smock. My neighbors won't stop cat call whistling every time I try so I don't do it anymore.

I really like this cannon roller nose set up and I'm thinking it's gonna be my choice of bar.
