here is the new saw I am working on as well...

 

[Dennis]

Eric...yep we are getting closer....I will be keeping you in suspense until it is done..


So I get home last night from watching the hockey game...darn Redwings anyway....and I find some guy passed out on my couch...turns out its Roger...(rbtree) lol...so we had a couple of cocktails and told some lies...was good fun..then this morning we were outside about 8am with the 3120 fired up...neighbors must love me...lol...cant wait for July...

 

[Dennis]

Wow...the first of May already!! Go Montreal!!!!

Anyway..made some really nice cuts with Erics (woodsjunkie) 2165 and its on its way...the best cut was under 6 seconds in 13" of dry spruce...24" bar..
Hopefully I will be cutting today with Harleys 385...I cant post pics right no from my camera as that machine is giving me problems...
Dan your 3120 is working out quite nicely..should be cutting wood by the end of the week if all goes well...
Roger...your little girl is looking pretty as well...cutting about the same time as Dans saw...

I am still looking for a lathe to speed up my process, I did find one of my neighbors who was willing to do the work for me so that will help...no longer waiting for a machinist will be nice...

Its another beautiful day here in the Canadian Frontier...hope you all enjoy!!

Hey Clearwater Clem, tell Lou to put some of the moonshine into the double ender, it should make it get up and talk.
Glad to hear you landed that 46lb. King Salmon.
On the way home home I stoped at the Log Inn Pub. A biker there asked me what I did for a living and I said I was a taxidermist. He didnt know what that was so I said I mounted animals. So he bellows out to the rest of the crowd, " Hey, he's ok, he's one of us!"

Dennis,
Sounds great ... can't wait to get my hands on it..
How long do you think it will take to get hear ?

Roger...talked to Robert last night....and no problem with taking your saw with him back to Enumclaw...

Dan...another step closer today Pics soon...

My new machinist is just the best...lol..I dropped off one of my 930 cylinders today with piston...at 11:30am..he said he would have it done over the next couple days....which was no problem as i have other saws I am working on......so...1:30 pm he shows up...job done...and done perfect as I expected from a 70 year old English watch maker and machinist...

So...needless to say I spent tonight adapting an HT Tillotsen carb to the 930 and building throttle linkage...wish I could show pics of the difference in size on those carbs...I think Mike or Ken did at one point...

Anyway...off to bed...gotta get up early and build more lawnmowers..I mean rototillers...I mean saws......man I hate spring...lol....

 

[rbtree]

So, if my lil green machine is cutting with Dan's 3120, you musta thrown a supercharger on it and nitrous in it, and a pipe to boot!


Ohboyohboyohboyohboy!

Thanks, i'll email Robert for time and directions.

 

[Dennis]

Rog..I was out cutting with the little green machine today...and yep..very impressed....

Harley...the 385 got the final makeover today and will ship thurs...had to go back inside for more power!!

I spent the rest of the day with my 394 and 272 that I will be taking to Washington....as well as some work on the 111...man, that thing is taking all my time...but it should be sweet...also worked on the Super 930 cyl again today....just about ready for the pipe...hopefully tomorrow..see how that darn lawnmowers go...lol....

Oops, here is the photo,

 

[Harley]

Great!

I've been looking around to see were I'm gonna take my first cut with it. Haven't found a worthy place yet, but I've got some more time yet. I'll be counting the days.

Thanks Dennis.

 

[woodsjunkie]

Look'e hear what the UPS man brought me Friday..
Finally got my Greffardized 2165. Made a few cuts with a 20'' bar seem's to cut ok.

 

[Rotax Robert]

woodsjunky, you will have woods junk if you don't get that Stihl bar off of that saw....Maybe just take a look or two to see if your chain oil hole in the bar matches the oiler on your saw....You better hope Dennis don't see that pic. And if you don't mind my asking....the saw only cuts ok ???

 

[Dennis]

hmmm....stihl bar on a pretty little red girl...hmm...

 

[woodsjunkie]

I wondered how long it would be before someone picked on my bar.
As for the Stihl bar, I had to do something to get this Greffardized ***** cat saw to cut.. LOL
Robert yes the oil hole lines up perfect I used an adaptor that I got from Walkers to use on my 394. I think it will work on any Jonsey or husky with the big bar mount.
Dennis if we have a deal let me know .

 

[Dennis]

eric...glad to see you were just funning...lol..once again..you had me going...deal is on..if you can wait the time...2 weeks for shipping date..I do have others in line...and saws to build...but I will be moving the built saws out quicker now I do believe...things have quietened down...a bit...

 

[woodsjunkie]

Dennis,
I can wait as long as you need me too, Now that i know its worth the wait LOL
Dennis is the man

I think the stihl bar looks fine on the red and black

 

[woodsjunkie]

Dennis you the MAN

Ok I have had the chance to put a little time on this 2165 that Dennis the "wild man" built for me. All I can say is that this saw is nothing but "impressive" Its like their is no end to the power band it's "all power" !!! I ran it beside a slightly modified 365 and made almost two cuts to one. I would venture to say that it will ???? near cut with my stock 394 and it's a lot lighter..If anyone out their is looking for a real saw I "highly" recommend Dennis..
Spend about the same for power with less weight, saw lives longer, Makes scents to me
I just ordered another one from him .... Getting rid of the heavy weights, Maybe my back will live longer .
Thanks again Dennis
Eric
I stihl like the bar .......

 

[woodsjunkie]

Greffardized Polaris ?

Dennis,
Have you ever worked your magic on a large two stoke engine? Say like a 800cc Polaris ? Want too ???
This thing already hauls ass can't imagine it with some Greffardizing. Wish it would snow..

 

[Dennis]

Eric...lmao...you are wacked! But funny enough...I am gong to be working with my machinist this winter on some sleds...Is yours a twin or Triple..if its a triple 800 leave it alone...a twin...go to aftermarket heads from a company called SLP Starting Line Products...stay with a single pipe...for longetivity...

Now...back to chainsaws...lol...
