Warmed it up good last night and just generally checked it out. It came with a 20" B&C. I've also got a 24" for it, but on the hunt right now for a Dolmar bar of 28". Couldn't resist makin at least one cut last night. All I can say is this thing laughs at a 20" bar... I even leaned on it. Speed like a Husky, and grunt like a Stihl... Very impressed for a saw right out of the box that I set a bit fat.:rock:
 
Trying to get Stumpy and Wiatt to come down for the day. Maybe some of the others can ride with them. Sunfish, Hedgerow, ??? Just for the day. Got a few saws they want and need. Yall welcome to come down with em.:hmm3grin2orange:
 
I was playin around with my 288 this afternoon & I'm still not happy with the way it performs. I started to look at the two extra jugs I got. One of them is identical to the one I got on the saw (but not ported) and has a decomp hole. The other is an earlier jug w/o decomp. looking them over I noticed the intake port on the non decomp jug was quite abit smaller, and the transfer ports were at different hights relative to the top of the bore. maybee thats why I don't see the performance gains I thought I would.

I'm gonna degree each jug & see what the actual differance is. Then port the non decomp jug the same as I did the jugs thats on the saw now & see if it runs any better. I might start a thread on my findings. It's probably already been done before but it's new stuff fer me.

Kinda wish I still had the 288 I sold to Freehand, because the jug on it was different yet from the two I've got. It didn't even have a blank spot on the jug fer a decomp, just fins. come to think of it Wiatts 288 I think had the same jug as Freehands.

Enough rambling:hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:
