Hybrid Build

[Deets066]

So 900 was probably a deal!!??

It depends, is the top end new? Crank? Seals bearings? Do you know the guy your buying from?
900 probly ain't bad if everything is legit

No building in here Al. All the cool kids are building in other threads.

I bet this one has cut a lot more wood than all the other 064's in this thread combined, and probably more than they will ever cut...View attachment 467913

What handlebars will fit an 064? Will 440/460 wrap bars fit?

Nice!! When I look at bridges and fingers now all I see is less real estate for rings though. Great lookin work

 

[drf255]

Agreed. But ring pins on exhaust side and thicker support areas between the fingers and bridges will support rings as they near the intake port roof.

Its still extra edges for the rings to ride on and imo neither offer very little in a worksaw

Thoso vertical edges dont bother me but the horizontal and diagonal edges with ring travel does?

 

[drf255]

I guess I'll see. My first attempt at fingers.

I probably shoulda skipped the bridges.

All hobby for me. I cut around 7 cords of wood a year. If this jug doesnt work, I can use one of my other 30 saws.

An experienced porter here tells me all his personal saws run fingers and they run just fine with what youre seeing.

Looks good. Very debated subject on bridges and fingers and I think they work but for only a few tenths in a cut the tradeoff isnt worth it in durability to me but its fun grinding them and probably a sale point for porters.

Hey Kieth @glock37 has a factory 3/4 wrap on his all new oem 064. I thought I had a picture but cant find it. Ill get it later today.

worksaws are soooo overrated
a few tenths can be forever when it means smoking a good friend

 

[KG441c]

Ya im sorta over a saw being as fast as it can be. I just like it to have the right torque and rpm in the cut

 

[drf255]

 

[KG441c]

Oh ya! U can build one to be superfast in smallwood and a turd in 25" wood!!
