How you get it to cut like that ? ;-)

Just handfiling getting the “gullet” . Keep my rakers at .025 with the depth gauge tool too. Nothing special really.

Piped 66 I have built.
2nd run after some further work.
11000 Jenka Aussie Spotted gum..... twice as hard as oak
Holding 13000+ rpm with 3/8 8 tooth
Still 4 stroking over 15000 RPM

Looks great brews!! At first i tbought you had some of thsr oo hi oo speed wood sent to you.. then i read your description. [emoji23]

It'll settle down a bit when the clutch, bar, and chain are on it.

bad tach?

I don't know

But running hotter in the cut is pretty sweet.

Is it time to let Chris from PA and his RPM app back in ? Sure didn't sound to me like it could be that high in the cut.

 

[Time's Standing Stihl]

In the cut was higher than the piss rev.

Time for a new tach....

 

[P.M.P.]

All you have to do is ease up on the pressure in the cut JEEEZ.

The 2253/550 have a 14k limiter I believe too.

There's ways around that

On a 550xp?

Right at the end there was an RPM spike when he lifted to finish the cut. Probably hardly any wood at that time. I think the tach may have captured that instance.

Getting the “gullet” is critical in making semi chisel useable

Sure, AT doesn't mean it can't be unlimited. I've seen a few 661's that are unlimited. And them guys out west hate that stuff. They are always switching out for standard carbs and what not

Ported xpw runs pretty good I thought, made a change to the porting done on it originally. 14.2k tune first video, 14k for second video. Holding 12.6-12.7k in the wood light load in the second video and can dog it in to about 8.8k. Running stihl semi chisel chain round filed, 7 pin rim and 24” bar. Chain holds a edge pretty well in the oak log in the second video. I like this chain.

Looks good Mason.

I really enjoy staring at logs while listening to someone chew on nuts and bolts. That was a very serene 5 minutes.

Sounds pissed jim.

So Mason, you keep runnin that semi stuff, I think my Un ported 044 will give your ported /XPW a little trouble!
