Hey Billy! I doubt you would remember me but on Thursday the day before the Paul Bunyan show started, I ran into you and Nick at the TSC (Tractor Supply Company) in Cambridge. I recognized you from your channel, and you may recall I said, "Well obviously you don't know me!" As is your personality, you greeted me like an old friend. I have attended the show since 1992. I produce and sell a couple hundred cords a year here in Ohio and thoroughly enjoy your channel and the tips you provide. I drove out to Vancouver Island in 1995 and actually cut some alder and dropped a spruce with my old model 61. I currently run 4 model 372 XP's and also use the Tsumura bars. It was a pleasure to meet you and hope you make it back to the show next year!

Billy, Mark here. Yet again I learn so much about the smallest things you know from years and years around trees and saws. I have these learned instincts around woodworking, carpentry and remodeling jobs, but like you bring up about sharpening chains, dull vs sharp effects on motors, this is so good to learn from your presentation here and all over your channel.

@timwoodger78962 жыл бұрын
I watched Morgan create the first pipe And thought wow that’s an interesting way of doing it! I think he’s almost cracked it with the second one but if possible I think “maybe” if he snaked it around the other way so the outlet faces the chain Which would help keep the chain oiled,Just a thought? Of course if he could make it out of lighter gauge metal would help keep that weight down and like you said Buckin maybe restrict the outlet a little should give more bang for his buck! It makes an awesome sound 😊 He’s a good man that Morgan👍

Then swapped out the dana 70 rear with a corporate 10.25 axle, single wheel and beefed up the rear springs in the process. It's my daily driver and wood getter, love the 4 speed manual after owning quite a few automatic trucks. I just gotta get a dually rear axle and a flatbed or factory dually box now

Fix for the popping exhaust leak, put headers on it. That engine has issues with exhaust manifold warping, you name it. A new gasket alot of times doesn't help at all. Headers is the answer. Run an extension off the collector and mount some mufflers. Not glass packs though like I did. Headers may or may not require loosening an engine mount to jack one side of the engine to get them on.

That extra length created by the bend (radiused) can be made to pull exhaust. But if we have that, then, ideally, the intake can be modified to take advantage of greater pull of fuel that FIRES without 4 stroking. Aren't we trying to increase torque, which is that pull. I take pull over horsepower anytime I am driving with "tough" power I am better off, especially when the workpiece has varying resistance. For a chainsaw, that variation is "life."
