My first full port job of a 461. Saw came to me with TA, MM that I did a couple years ago for my friend, he also installed a max flow filter. I machined, ported and modded the carb yesterday. Picking up an unlimited coil at the PA gtg next weekend.

Before:

After:

460/461 always seem to wake up after there ported. Nice job. About 15% gain over muffler mod and t/a.

Where is your 34" blade?
Short blades are gay!
Upside down short blades are gayer

Big blade lives on my 395 where it belongs lol! And I call BS on the upside down blade because I know damn well it’s right side up on your Aussie upside down phone

Something, something, gay.
Something, something, short bar.

You weren’t by chance standing near a mirror when those thoughts popped into your head, we’re you Tony?

I thought it was the Aussies who used short bahs on the big saws?

My 670 jonsered. Still need a red clutch cover. Hopefully I’m getting better at chains. I have the 272 top ends running how I like em. Having a tough time learning how to fine tune a chain though

@Mattyo built the hybrids and had me test them out. I usually use my 064 as a benchmark for most of the saws I build since I have run it against many saws. Gives me an idea where they stack up. They are experimental saws with some aftermarket and some oem parts. He went pretty wild with the jug work. I thought they did well with a size bar they were never designed to run stock. Would be interesting to run them against a hybrid with a oem jug.

See that’s how a real chain should sling chips. Idk what I’m doing wrong or right

Ok I will thanks

Yup post pictures of your chain. There’s a lot of knowledgeable folk here. Also... hardwood usually ain’t gonna sling chips like white pine even with a good chain. But you should get some decent chip production either way lol.

Oh it was making good chips just not cutting fast.

This is probably the worst I’ve done actually after looking at it. When I cut with the grinder 60 degrees chop and 30 degrees offset as intended it cuts like a normal chain no wow at all. Cut the rakers down as much as the saw will pull and still no wow. This one I put the grinder @ 40 and gave it just a light chop at the edge and rakers way down. Still no wow.
