Love that your #1 tool is a notebook, if you make a mistake, it's just a mistake, but if you write all the data down, and learn from it, that's science, hah. I'm a diesel mechanic/machinist, and I kinda specialize in motors that other mechanics have given up on. Not to show off, that's just what is fun for me, the bigger challenge, and I'm not that fast since I got MS, so I need another niche, hah. But that's my only trick that lets me fix stuff that others can't, just a basic highschool level understanding of the scientific method, you think up all the things that could be wrong, that's your theory, then you figure out what tests you can do to eliminate some of the possible problems. Then if you eliminate them all, and she's not fixed, you gotta come up with some more theories, and taking some even real basic notes is a huge help. Especially if you work on multiple projects at once, hah.

Good stuff here Tinman. I'm interested in horse power and torque production and how porting affects those things. I think it all starts for me is to run the saw, experience how it feels in the wood, how it pulls and does it easily stall out if I lean on it a little? I'm interested only because I think it'll be fun and exciting. WOW! What a great hobby this is, and I thought running stock chainsaws was the best. Thanks again for teaching us what you know about this Tinman. Be safe as this too shall pass, one day at a time.

Tinman a tip I learned is to use canning wax as a lube for your cutters and grinding wheels. Grind the wax to get the bit loaded up then grind metal. Go back to the wax as necessary when the tools start to load up. Once you have a Foredom a Dremel seems like a toy look for a used reversible one try Ebay good Luck.

Love the Two Stroke 'On The Pipe' sound tips! Yes indeed. Even more finesse is needed when mimicking a dirt bike or road racer with a 6 speed gearbox. 🙂 I have 65, and 90 degree (spendy) handpieces for port work. But, I started with a Dremel, and, still use one for most all my work. It's really all you need unless you are replacing liners and cutting in new ports in a 'blank' liner.

This is really fun stuff Tinman. Will be fun to play with the numbers and see what does what. I’ve been watching and reading for a while and yet to grind the ports but every video I watch of yours gets me closer. Love the cutaway. Just timed a little McCulloch 38cc plastic saw will be interesting to see how it reacts to porting. This reminds me so much of clutching our mountain sleds back in the day when you had to modify them to go anywhere in deep snow at higher elevation. So many veriables it’s like playing a game you keep trying to get to the next level. Heading over to part 4. Cheers from Hinton Alberta.

Omfg ported saw sounds 😂😂😂 using same dremel actually, only difference is the drill chick im using a 1/2 inch keyless chuck and setup differently how the timing wheel is attached but man great versatile idea on how to attach the timing wheel. very happy with how much time and knowledge you are putting out into these awesome videos. I grind at a slower setting then your self with the double fluted carbides, I purchased some long ones like mentioned before but man do they wobble! So cut the shafts down to point they don't wobble but long enough keeping the tool chuck far as possible from the plating, why for those wondering? Being new when your bit chatters you can also nick the plating if your not being careful, ask how I found out. All learning curves for us newbs 😂 ported heads before but these tight areas inna saw cylinder is a new adventure

Hi Tinman good stuff!! What size shank were those burrs? I’m guessing 1/8in. Because that’s all the bigger my dremel will take but they looked bigger like 1/4in. In the video. I seen where foredom had a hand piece that will accept 1/4in. Burrs but not sure if it will interchange with the flex shaft on my dremel. But is a 1/4in shank what you use most or 1/8in. Thanks

Hi Tinman, I'm referring to part 3 of this series when you mentioned an engine that had to have the degree wheel retimed every time the top end came off. Would it be difficult to bolt that engine to the bench and have it in a fixed position, also on the bench to screw your pointer down. I don't know chainsaws, I'm a motorcycle guy. I mainly worked on Yamaha TZ350 race bikes and had a set of engine brackets fastened to my bench to keep it still during some parts of overhauls, rebuilds and modifications.

Quality of tools are definitely helpful but it’s definitely the man and brain power behind the tools that really matters. I find the fella’s who are wondering around their shop mumbling to themselves as they are building their tool to do a project to be the really dangerous ones. You can spend thousands of dollars on the very best tools and if there’s not that passion and study behind your heart and your hands your projects will be mediocre at best. A very interested person can cobble some basic tools together and create something absolutely magical because it’s actually their heart and soul being transferred through their hands. We call it revisualization... when you are in your place and you can actually see it working before you create it... photographers can see the light and engine builders can hear the RPM’s change... I think it’s like anything...if you want to be really good at it you need to practice it until it’s “in your blood”... I absolutely love how you are laying out your videos and teaching by showing...probably because you like to learn by doing. You really could have saved me some time money and aggravation around 12 years ago.😂😂😂. I’m just so freakin happy that there’s a couple guys now who make honest and genuine videos to help less experienced guys to learn because you are openly sharing your knowledge and thoughts and what’s working for you. We can learn something new from each other every day if we are open enough to really trust and care about each other. I’m so so happy to see how this group of saw building aficionados gets bigger and stronger every day.... great stuff! Thank you so much for all your hard work that goes into doing what you do! 👍😁.
