What's on your bench?

I thought those Solo ports looked huge. I had no idea they were over 100cc. Should pull like a GE locomotive!

Liniter screws will definitely bugger the tank if you put them in the bottom holes.


The cure ?



Feels better when cutting too, especially one with these markings on the cylinder



On it’s way @longleaf

Looking good Kevin, REAL GOOD! Especially considering it started off as a scabby old ex loggers saw.

 

[longleaf]

Awesome

Looking good Mike.

Looks good Mike like the saw holder

Not on my bench, but this is my Solo 603 on Al’s @drf256 bench. This saw got some big improvements.

Hd50 for the 461, you may have to swap a rod, can't remember but I know they run very well on them, Dave sells them.

What's the best replacement carb for an 044? Can't make this one idle/ tune worth a chit. An hour in the USC pulled Welch plugs etc.... no dice. I'm over it!!

Edit: ordered one from Nate.

Finished up an Echo CS-800P. I’m quite impressed by these saws! Did a 355T for the same guy a few days ago (modeled after Mastermind’s thread) and was pretty surprised by that turd too.

Cut .028 off the base, cleaned up the squish band, bgd left me at .022 squish. Brought the intake up a hair, the transfers up 3.5 degrees and the exhaust up 4 degrees, widened the exhaust and cleaned up the intake. I also knocked 0.015 off the key to bump the timing.


Also did a quick down and dirty custom muff mod as he was on a pretty small budget.



All in all i was pretty happy with it. Really does pull pretty damn well with the 24” bar. Yes, the saw is heavy, but it carries the weight very well and is built like a brick-schithouse.

Where did your numbers end up?

 

[usmcbuckwild]

I can’t tell you; the pad I wrote them down on got over-sprayed with brake clean and now they are all a big smudge. Pretty pissed at myself for not putting the pad back up on the shelf before continuing to work. I just lost about 5 months worth of records.

You got a lathe Curt?

Nope. I have a “semi-homemade” mill for my Dremel. Doing the base it works pretty good, but I but I brought it to a buddy who has access to a machine shop to square up the squish band.

Cool

Those saw are a tank for sure.

I used one on my 440 and had to swap the choke shaft I think.

 

[dustinwilt68]

I knew there was something, but I thought it was simple, thanks.
