Mastermind Meets The Echo CST-610EVL

[Jacob J.]

I don't know a thing about this stuff Shawn....it's way over my head. The guy that did the welding does hundreds a year so Jeremy just had him do his thang.

That's the type of cat you want doing that kind of work. Someone who does specialty stuff so often, it's routine to them.

He'll be seeing many more saw cranks too JJ.

We got the Solo 681 back together. Jon fired it up today......it's not been it wood yet though. It blowing big compression and sounds really good. We used a Husqvarna 272 piston when we built it. Now that the crank pin is welded I think it will be ok.....at least I hope so. That's a lot of work and money to lose because the crank can't handle the power.

I think it looks like a butterfly.

Ghey

 

[DSS]

I still think it looks like a butterfly.

Still ghey.

I have no agenda. GFY.

While I understand that you have made some very difficult decisions recently, your being bi-curious doesn't make it look any less like a butterfly.

40% is insignificant.

40% of a foot is insignificant. 40% of 3 inches is pretty damn significant. And stuff.

Thank you for putting it into terms I could understand. I was getting lost in metric conversions.

Remember, when doing a muffler mod, take your added sound level plus your no load rpm's double it and divide by pie. That will give you aftermarket significance percentage.

That works but you forgot to add that the number of crank bearings can affect the outcome, as well as the diameter of the cutter in a right angle handpiece. Not to mention the IQ of the person holding it. Vision clouded by tears can also play a part.

But I loves me a good pie

Really?

Do you know Randy?


BTW, I think the polar bear pooped a butterfly. :jester:

I did without for a long time, but I recently got a couple right angle tools and I don't know how I got along without them.

Almost forgot, I picked up a couple right angle bits, too. I'm saving up for carbide, though.

The way he's hunched over I thought it was a microwave oven, but I'll take your word for it Ted.

 

[thomas1]

Looks more like a cocoon to me?

After looking at your avitar this morning I could sure use a big ole greasy cheeseburger, all the way minus pickles, and a big slice of red onion as long as it's got a side of sweet tater fries. Wonder what I'll be having for lunch, probably your cousin.

He sure will, in fact I think he'll be seeing the extra 610 crank I have here soon enough.

 

[dozerdan]

Study and discuss.

I must be missing something or maybe I cant see the picture that well. To me it looks like the lower weld on the crank almost missed joining the metal parts together, most of the weld looks way off and it will do no good.

As Shania would say " it don't impress me much"

Can we see the other welds on the crank?

The welder of said crank says the way he does it helps prevent cracking. He purposely lead away from the joint.

I have no way of knowing.....but this is his bidness and his bidness is booming.

The other side looks the same way.

That is exactly how I have seen other ones done (all three) in my lifetime, to the best of my knowledge two are still in service and one that was in a sled is at the bottom of Lake Erie but probably not cracked...

 

[ELECT6845]

Looks good enough to me. We weld the crank pins on xs650 yamaha twins and run them on 100% Nitro Methane. Cranks always held up. I say RUN IT

 

[dozerdan]

I understand why he ran the bead and stopped it away from the joint but it still looks like the bead is way off of the joint in the lower one. The top one looks fine.
I am sure that the pin wont come out but it still looks like he missed his mark on the lower one to me.
