I had not read much about the blast. Did see a mention of it this morning. Did quite a few people die?

Not that I'm aware of.

A small bolt and a nylock in the slot to limit travel.
Saw it done this way 25 yrs. ago by an old man that built mags for drag motors. He built HEIs for chevys too.
MAGSRUS was his company name.

Smart idea. I'm planning on welding the slot to make it shorter, then grinding it back to the length I need.

Since that explosion in Nashville yesterday, our landline has been spotty. It's down now, and has been since last night. Its beginning to be obvious that the target of the blast was the switching station the RV was parked in front of.
Heard that story on the news tonight,maybe 1 person killed if I heard right

I've cut a metric *f-wordton of wood with it. It's a good saw. Wouldn't hesitate to rec it to other folks.
I kind of regret not getting a 501p instead of the 490. Even after the muffler mod and a better chain, I still think the 501p would’ve been the better saw

I am not an echo guy myself, but perhaps you should consider getting yourself a 70cc class saw to pair up with that 490. Just in the past couple years I have settled on pro 50cc and 70cc to do the bulk of my cutting work. Sure beats the heck out of the Husky 455 boat anchor I started out with.

Poor Santa's azz musta been draggin' after he delivered to your place. Lol
Merry Christmas to you and your family. :xmas2:
No that slack ass *b-word forgot my 4l80e/205 that I asked for.

your boyfriend in the background ?
You want a close up?

Not saying it’s good to screw up but know when you do screw up, learn from it. Those who think they can do no wrong are often wrong most of the time.
I'd rather be around a screw up than a person that never did anything wrong.

Wait till you fug up a pricey jug
It's a Echo, that muffler probably cost more than a Husqvarna jug lol.

You’re watching too many YouTube saw hacks, like Tin pony. Back pressure doesn’t add anything.
Back pressure adds heat...........

Good morning OPE hope everyone had a great Christmas Day View attachment 274233
