just havn't bought any yet, i'm laid off work for a couple weeks.
So that means you'll have a new video up shortly with a better chain and better tuning on the saw, right?

Xactly, for every ten who do the talking about such projects seems only one ever does it. Next pipe will likely take half the time to do up. It's the experimental learning stuff that takes time.
Just a thought..... get messing with pushing higher RPM and chain speeds out of a saw for cutting cookies and good chaps are more than just a good idea.

Yowser. That was a close one!
after lunch. watching the boys, while the wife and daughter are having a girls day out. although im not saying the saw wont get a bar and chain change and will be setting at the door awaiting thier arrival...:monkey:
Yes! Get and use some GOOD chaps! Here's me getting slapped by a chain off my 046. Just a ported work saw with a pipe, 9 pin sprocket. It cut into my chaps and stung a bit. The last cookie dropped onto the bar and threw the chain.

a minor slip-up can happen and the safety edge that chaps give. I know it has convinced me to start wearing my chaps...
already been looking for a set , just havn't bought any yet, i'm laid off work for a couple weeks.
What do you do for work?
I build large diesel engines.(500-3000hp) for a global company based in peoria IL...
Why did you get laid off?
How about we take this a step farther. If this doesn't fit in this thread, just say so and I'll move it.
What would be good porting numbers for a piped 460 or 660 work saw/GTG toy? I've heard mention of only 160*-180* of exhaust duration. I'm guessing 160* would be too little for a work saw and might even require blocking the top of the exhaust port. I don't want to take it that far. No two-piece head here either. I'm talking about numbers to put into a OEM cylinder to work well with a pipe, and still be able to do some work with. I know there will be some compromises here from the outset.
