One of my last good saws

[nighthunter]

I can see the reasons for a MM but I would never port any of my saws for the simple reason that I would not see an advantage

 

[Evan]

I do it because i can make gains for free. Brad helped me alot on port shape and what to do and not to do when it comes to messing with these things

 

[grizz55chev]

Yes id rather limb with 32" than a 18" on my 026

I was speaking about the 44. Do they even make a 32” for an 026?

 

[pioneerguy600]

Only the initiated know what a 44 is.

 

[Evan]

Well. I can certianly bolt a 32" blade on my 026 but it wont drag the blade very well in big wood

 

[grizz55chev]

What’s a blade?

 

[KMatt]

What’s a blade?

A tool that slices. A chainsaw does not slice or cut. It removes wood.

Most Stihl owners=. Blade- “the part of the chainsaw I cut with”

That would be bar and chain, just sayin.

That’s what I was saying

 

[grizz55chev]

I was with ya, till you dissed Stihl owners. Can’t we all just get along?

Not sure. So I bolted my 066 36” to an 026 I built. Don’t oil the bar too well.

 

[nighthunter]

That's obviously a skip tooth chain, would that be hard on a clutch

Not sure, actually.

Here’s one I built that I labeled the vid. This is only a 25, but full comp and not skip. Dead red oak.

Lol

No sir, I am not. My 026 make around 5hp. Maybe a drop more. They’ll pull and oil a 20 in real life. I wouldn’t recommend a bar over that. These were vids done at buyers requests and to load the hell out of the saws to seat rings after initial assembly and firing.

Here my patented G-F-Y bar. 20” 3/8 Stihl RS chain.


To the OP, sorry for the Hijack.

 

[nighthunter]

Those piltz parts are a joke

 

[Evan]

Orderd tank and misc parts for my 44 them noticed my pile of orange saws under the bench. A 281 and 266
81 is smeared across the exhaust 66 i dont know whats wrong. Seems to have a hella alot of compression.

I screwed up and gave away the intake elbo and filter off the 81.

66 might be a runner for cheap

My prefrence would ne to turn the 81 into a 88 but would rather put money into the 44.

No worries hijack away.

I to have run long bars on my 26

 

[Evan]

Found quite a few pieces of the 440 puzzle and even a 66 carb. Havent found a coil or chaincase cover. I think thats all im lacking. I guess i can pull plastic cover off the 290 i have

That cylinder has alittle smear in it will clean up nicely. Its all stock

Looking forward to this project . Also found i have more bars and chains then i thought i had. Ive got two 32s a 25 or 8 a 20 and 18 and a few oregon or husqvarna bars. Not sure i have chains for all them though.

Heres one of the trees from 6 years ago.
