So what did you do today?

[Mattyo]

looking through my BOXES of parts I got today... keep an eye on the TP for them

christmas came early from the bay!

I went back out and installed a piston and cylinder in an 038, seemed to fit okay...still have to put the rest of the saw together, maybe tomorrow.

Well, yesterday I spied a pair of dead ash near the corner of our woodlot. One was on the deck and the other was hung up but not too bad. So, today after work and before the rain moved in, I took my trusty 026 with a 16 x 3/8" bar & square chisel and bucked them b1tches into fire wood. The trees were both about 40 feet long and arrow straight. Both about 12" at the stump. It was fast & furious and hellish fun! Started to sprinkle just when I finished stacking; pouring rain as I pulled in the driveway at home.
I decided I could sure cut a jag of wood before I ever hated it.

Did some measuring of a Lycoming crankshaft flange, pulled some bent parts off that airplane engine and started disconnecting it so it can be removed for some repairs. Did some office work, ordered some chains and a bar from leftcoastsupplies and processed a deer which is now ground up and in the freezer.

Worked at my job 8 hours and that was enough! Been working on a carved wooden chain. I really could have been working on it after I got off but I goofed around on the computer instead.

Blow downs and more blow downs. The forestry next to one of our fields has a culvert through it to divert the flow down the mountain. When trees are uprooted or blow into it, things get ugly and flooded, and it gets bad rapidly. So, I spent a couple of days clearing it from all the trees and root balls.

I thought only prisoners made those! Have one somewhere in the shop made by a guy in the pokey. Also have a ball inside a ball inside a ball.

Supposed to be an 038 Super. It had a 50mm piston which I replaced with a 52. It does have super compression now. Had a place for a comp release but I plugged it with a short bolt.

When you plug them decomp. Hole do you just put a o-ring on bolt?

No I used a flat washer and some blue loctite on the threads. The loctite may not last long though.

I don't think it matters, that bolt has such fine threads I doubt if it would leak. I put the loctite on to kinda lubricate the bolt so I could get it screwed in easier. For some reason that bolt wasn't easy to get in there, it was supposed to be a metric and the threads were both fine and looked alike but it was tight.

Today, I sharpened some chains and puttered with things on my work bench, BUT last Sat., I did this,

That's cause of the thread sealer still in there.
Can get high temp loctite too. Good for 250c I think.

This was all new stuff, no thread sealer used before I used it. Sometimes there's difference between Chinese metrics and metrics from other countries. I learned that while working on motocross bikes. The Japanese bikes bolts didn't fit real well on European bikes.

I wasted a little time trying to get 3 McCulloch plastic saws running. One had no spark, another either had an air leak or a stopped up high speed jet after cleaning. The third one I just looked at and put back in the shed..

I just lol'd a little bit
