RIP Saw 500i

[Sloughfoot]

I heard when I was a kid ( 60 yrs ago ) dont go to resturants that arent busy- the best ones are always packed. I thought one of many good ways to tell who to send your saw to for porting is find out how long their wait time / list is. The guy I send mine to here on the forum in michigan is usually six monts ++ out. I think thats a pretty good sign if your looking to get one done. I am very happy with his work and post purchase help.

I go by how crowded and the demographic. Asian place full of Asians or Mexican full of Mexicans it's probably pretty good. Any restaurant full of retirees usually isn't.

There are too many good guys here doing it to even consider ripsaw.

I’ve had at least 15 ported saws, none were or will be from rs.

I think the verdict is out haha. I read a bit about them and its 90% negative, trying to be to commercial and quality goes down it seems. At least with this kind of aftermarket chainsaw work. I will only have my saws ported by the fine folks on this here forum, or folks that have built saws I have ran.

I'm kinda getting the feeling that the rs folks are about as popular as stihl 2 stroke oil on here

I also love Chocolate chip cookies but hate the half baked soft ones. It has to have some crunch.

Exact opposite for me, which shows that people have their own tastes in cookies as well as saws.

I think that the CNC porting idea is fantastic, but it should be implemented by someone who has become an expert first at porting using the traditional methods first. It’s a little like our Franzen chain sharpener. It’s a great tool that is useless in the hands of someone who has no idea what a sharp chain looks like.

Too many people fall for the supposed “perfection and repeatability” with cnc. It’s a great idea if they actually found a good solid performing recipe.

I think it would be especially fitting for a perfectly shaped and centered exhaust port. I wonder if there is a CNC machine with a small enough head to fit into the cylinder for transfer ports.

I prefer the well done ones

I prefer the well done ones

I would rather have the moist chewy gooey ones over the crispy crunchy dried out ones

I've made lots of cookies but never ate one
