Build Threads?

[Mastermind]

I've shied away from build threads lately.

A few reasons.....

Time is number 1. They are time consuming.

Reason number 2. I don't need any work. When I do build threads I get lots of emails and phone calls.

Third.....the last few months it seems like the site has been a bit on edge. I just ain't been "feeling it".

At any rate.......I figured I'd share a little of what I'm working on.

I've got a strange pair on the bench.......

An Echo CS501P and an MS362C

Now that you've started a build thread it must mean that you have tons of time which means my saw should be done tomorrow?

 

[Mastermind]

I noticed yet another change in the MS362C. The air filter base has been upgraded recently.



Now it's all one piece.......

Now.......the Echo has a new jug that is COOL !!!!!! But more on that later.

Finding the angle to cut the squish......

I'll be at the lathe for awhile.......then I'll post a few pics of the 501 jug.

Maybe @Miller Mod Saws has some pics of the older style jug.

I always enjoy build threads, I like to learn, and these always have useful tips and tricks.

To thin to cut the dome off?

Most understand what you're saying. Speaking for myself I really enjoy just seeing saws I've never seen apart.

 

[Mastermind]

I was hoping I could find some Echo 500P pics. I've probably stashed them in another hard drive somewhere.

Anyway.......here's some pics of the 501P jug.

You were right !!!

The combustion chamber design tells me that it needs that dome.

Pretty idle threat with legs like yours.

The 500P had transfer caps/inserts that sucked balls......
