Tearing down my JMSSAWS, one by one...

[CR888]

So glad your cylinders could be saved, and Al's work never ceases to amaze me!

I'm not to sure who this doc feller is but whenever his name gets a mention its to do with quality workmanship and attention to detail. Members take note of that sought of stuff.

I was wrong on the muffler. That wasn't a hillbilly attempt to stack dimes. He built up a full pad with flux core in order to mount a second deflector. Another head scratcher. He coulda just extended and opened the rear for less noise and same performance. View attachment 86626View attachment 86627

I'm wanting to give Sondre a new muffler for the 395.
I'll take that old one, cut out the Fred Sanford welding, patch it with some sheet and make a milling muffler for mine outta it

If you think the 9010 needs a new one, lets get him one

I should be home early today, then its my turn on the lathe with the other cylinders. I'll post them up good/bad. I'd like to ship out the good mufflers that we've got and the cylinders ASAP to get him back up and running.

@SOS Ridgerider

Please confirm squish on the 6100 and base gasket thickness for me once more.

Does anyone here have a 6100 they would be willing to measure for me?

I'd need gasket thickness, squish, and distance from the base from the band measured with a depth micrometer.

I know this is a long shot. I'd like to get Sondre as close to a bolt on jug as possible.

@paragonbuilder , you may have to cut and sand the band still.

The 5105 jug was cut on a lathe. It was out .007 side to side. I took .008 to clean it up.

Think I figured out how his lathe jugs are off as well. I initially tried to cheat with a 44.7 Ms260 mandrel in this 45mm jug. I wrapped it smoothly in aluminum foil. The jug was out .007 more than it was with a correct mandrel. I believe he's using any old mandrel that's "close enough" on the lathe. I doubt he's making a new one for each saw.

I'm glad you figured that out Al, I was staring at my lathe yesterday trying to figure out how it could be off that much. I was thinking that if the runout on the mandrel was off enough for the base to be out like that, it would be wobbling all over the place, and the cylinder extension would be uneven. So the jug would have to be cockeyed on the mandrel but very little runout to get what you found. A mandrel too small explains it.

Reminds of another one of his quotes.

"Nothing fast lives that long"

Maybe it shoulda read...

"Hasty work produces a product that won't last long"

Could also be why each and every saw didn't have to be the fastest, bestest, strongest, Top 3.........for every saw he did.

He shoulda been a used car salesman. That's where his talent is.

Maybe because he was so strung out he couldn't remember?

That's methed up.

 

[SOS Ridgerider]

@SOS Ridgerider put me a list together of the dolly parts/gaskets you need and i will round them up and ship them out to you this week so you can get them back together.

Wow! Thanks Nate! I'll be in touch later today!

Please refrain from calling this POS a salesman. Just call him what he really is, a POS.

6100 base and was able to make part of muff more presentable.

That would be an insult to car sales people everywhere.
