If Matt is a site sponsor, he can add a link to them in his signature. Or, if he is not a sponsor, he can list them to sell in the classified.
That's good news, thank you

Wow, they look amazing, its always a pleasure to see a master at work.
Jokingly I say all I need now is a 288 to put one on, if only I could turn back the clock to a time when I could hang on to such a beast,

BBR is too full of himself for me to watch him and his vids.
But that is just me, maybe I am not getting him or something.

Why people send him free valuable stuff is beyond me, but if it makes them happy in some way good for them I guess.

@Mattyo , sorry Your promo attempt didn't turn out as planned.
Had I gotten a free 288 with custom made parts I would like to think I would have made sure to promote them the best way I can and keep biased opinions to myself.

Good luck with Your endeavor!

I may be making enemies with that post , but I am not interested in fake friends either.

If we can get along, cool.
If we can't, let's just agree to ignore one another and go our separate ways.

I thought it was really odd how he would promote ever one else tinman,iron horse.

But he complain about the high top cover because he couldn’t lay on it to sharpen on it.

I guess being a YouTube super star it doesn’t matter

Someone could request the saw back, on grounds of discrimination,
that should prompt a reply. I would if I gave a gift that resulted in
a needless comment.
The good news is, people seeing the video will know what they want,
and it won't put them off in any event, sure if we all listened to the negatives
and went with them, we would never benefit from anything positive.

Man this makes me itch to get my 288 together. I think I have two cylinders, one with a broken fin…might try porting.

But anyway, got to thinkin’, a 288 is supposed 6.1hp, 394 7.1. @Red97 could probably tell us tq. Assuming a porter is quite good and makes 25% increase in hp, that’s 7.625…but the 394 has been tweaked, I think more than Billy says…and the 288 wasn’t broken in yet. So the chances of the 288 out cutting the 394 seem a bit slim. The fact that it hung close is pretty cool. I think somehow billy missed the point of the high top and got distracted by the “challenge”.

I would have thought, if mattyo asks him for a follow up on the saw in another vid and add more to the making of the oem obsolete top cover. And where to get them. In true spirt of buckin I would like to think he would.
He may even do another cutting vid once it’s broken in. he’s done it before and got his son's opinion..

having said this , this thread did almost go down the drain, once a few references got thrown in.


well played @Woodpecker for getting it back on track..
