Mastermind meets the MS390

[Stumpys Customs]

Rep for you too Stump!!!...

Thanks.

I'm gonna see if Jon T. will let me bring his 088 that I built fer him to the GTG. He said he's not gonna make it.

So who's gonna buy an MS390 because of this thread?

After seeing the potential the 390 has I wouldn't mind having one. Of course it would be ported in short order. They are really underpowered pigs stock.

Sorry Randy... gotta spread some to wendell first...:hmm3grin2orange:

I like the way this man thinks!

Not me... But I'm gonna have Stumpy port the tired old 039... Otherwise, it would eventually end up just a parts saw... :msp_tongue:

They run pretty well opened up. The next time I do one I hope to build a popup for it.

I sorta doubt that Stumpy. You seem to be doing a good job on your work. I've made scrap metal out of a few jugs. But I knew I was pushing the limits when I did it. If you are like me you just have to know how much is too much.

 

[audible fart]

Nope.:msp_biggrin:

 

[Mastermind]

Nope.:msp_biggrin:

I start the bidding at 5 bucks. :msp_smile:

This spring me&a buddy sawed up a downed pine tree in his yard. He had a new MS290 20" and i had my year old MS390 24". He was wishing he had initially got the MS390. And guess what, we're just homeowners!

Thanks.

So far I haven't scraped a jug yet, but have had to fire up the tig to fix a couple. Just been lucky so far. I figure there is two types of porters, those that have scraped a jug & those who are gonna scrap one. Just hop when I do that it's not an expensive one:msp_w00t:

I'm really hoping this hasn't happened within the last week, or so..............:msp_unsure:

I'm not saying your MS390 will explode in your first hour of testing, but i will say that this would be a fantastic time to invest in a nice flip down face shield. We only get one set of eyes.

Audible, I always appreciate the ray of sunshine you consistently cast upon every thread you visit.

Q: what's the difference between your MS390 and my MS390?

A: mine is not currently in a cardboard box being kicked.:spam:

I've not had any that wouldn't still run, just not like I wanted them to. I've raised the port timing too high on a couple and lost to much low end torque. They still make good saws for cutting up toothpicks.

I'm over building high rpm screamers. Now I build saws strictly for torque, if it won't pull in bigger wood it's a waste of a good saw imo.

I think you are gonna like the new and improved 390. The chain that it was wearing in the videos I shot had the rakers a bit low for a 64cc saw. I'll do much better with a less aggressive chain on it. The rakers were at around .040 on that chain.

I'm looking forward to hearing your report on it.

Stumpy and myself both "liked" this post. Jonathan did not!
