The kindest words I can muster for JMS...

[MG2186]

Well I wasn't going to share what I paid for my JMS 064/056 magll, but here it is. I sent him 2 complete 064's plus a 660 cylinder, plus 2 more 064 cylinder's. I received one 064 back. I also sent new OEM bearings, OEM gaskets and seals, 056 magll p/c and I forgot what else. I also paid him another $400 and that's not including the extra parts like another piston, carbs off of eBay and parts I bought from Dave Smith for this build. There was alot of R&D for the build and of anyone paid attention to the build thread on here they would we that.

How does it run? Is what you expected?

Unless you jacked your rates way up Allen, you are far from too high

You need to value yourself more. At least $100 more per saw would be reasonable. How many hours does it take ? How much does a skilled trade pay / hour ? Plus tools, supplies etc etc etc.

Guys,

This post ain't meant to put another nail in the coffin. I think it's closed already here.

If you've had a saw built by JMS, you should pull the cylinder and have the machine work inspected and trued up if needed.

Even if the saw runs fine, I'd recommend it.

We finally got to checking the o46 jug on the OP's saw.

It was out .008 side to side. This was done with his lathe.

I can't even imagine what tolerances he got using a belt sander.

Sorry guys. Hopefully a few guys here will step up to help you out.

Kwap........that's worse than by eyeball.
Dam chitty work.

 

[Termitebuffet]

And that's where problems between people arise. Did you ever contact me to say "Dude, I don't really like this 026 here"?

You have to know that I would have done anything, and everything to make it into a saw you did like.

As builders we need real world feedback on our work. Too many people will keep the negative stuff to themselves. That really don't help us build better saws.

So.....thanks for the feedback. What would have made the 026 better?

the chineesse has at least some sort waranty and they strive to get a tad quality, Jason not!!!

 

[Tor R]

First, I made a new mandrel for this, as I couldnt find the other one I made, this guaranfriggintees that this cylinder is dead nutz as the mandrel was cut and the cylinder spun without removing it from the chuck. It doesnt get any truer than that

Took 0.009 to clean up the base.

0.009" is alot, has Jason got a lathe or he still using his belt sander?

 

[Sty57]

What does belligerent mean ?
Well if it means "talks with a southern accent" then yes. Almost all deez summabeaches porter dudes are "belligerent" .
Heck almost all the posters on these dang saw forums are "belligerent"
... cept fer me and Al....we be da only guyz what ain't got No Accents.
We talk real " Merican" !!!!

I think Al talks funny..........and I'm from up Norf.

Wow dude...need a little KY ?

It's a little late for that. Lol

your a whole ported saw short on this deal

Ya I didn't expect it to be that high. I've been trying to get my old phone working so I can get the texts back and forth that we had. It is just not cooperating.

Here is the build thread he did on here. http://opeforum.com/threads/064-056-mag11-build.3477/. I don't run it or haven't ran it much. From when I did run it, it is fast noodling with a 28" and a 9pin.

Wow. And I've been thinking my prices might be to high!

Alan please don't go by his prices.

I was thinking of selling the saw until I came on here after taking a break from the chainsaw section of the site for months. Then I seen the threads and *s-word hitting the fan.

What phone?
Does it have a card in it?

Most cell stores can read them and copy it along with the contacts (if you want them)

 

[Toad22t]

Motorola google Nexus 6. It doesn't have a external card and I can't get it to charge to turn it on.

 

[breese]

From that I see on that phone, it does have a door on the side for the SD card.
That should be what is needed to get the info you are looking for.

What do you have now?
Your Cell carrier might / should be able to read that SD card

 

[sawmikaze]

I run a 325x8 sprocket on my 026

I run .325x8 on every ported 50cc saw i have or had.

Basically same size as 3/8x7 anyway..

 

[Mastermind]

I have the gas.........again.

I'm pretty sure that he has a lathe now, but he just got it a few months ago
