Nice to see you again. Exhaust exit placement very important. No good when you can t hold the front handlebar when deep in the cut cause it burns your hand. Thanks
Wow I'm first!!! This video is right on time, as I'm researching mm's and interested in exhaust port size and placement. Thanks for making the video on what you call the Spike Special, it's on my to do list for my 2000 372xp and my 2015 372xp xt but will buy a Chinese muffler for it so there's nothing inside for the xt. Be safe and have a great day.
First mod I cut. My muffler on a ms261 cm two slits two a 3/4 basic follow the lines the put on that muffler and now I see a difference in the wood and with my 20 in tsumura
Some people think the hard work is over when the tree hits the ground, but it is then that the hard work is jus beginning. Cutting down a tree is easy, cleaning up the mess is what is difficult.
48mm saws. That’s why I like my ms 360. It weighs less and will cut almost as fast as my bigger saws. I don’t care about fuel efficiency as much as I do my back and legs. It will really cut with its new Stihl C3A S31 carb (1125-120-0613) that I put on it.
I put two pipes straight out the front on my big bore 372xp oe and u r rite I buried it in big dead oak and not only plugged the exhaust off it started the wood on fire
I know why you braze. I tried welding on a muffler last night with my little Lincoln Mig welder and on the lowest setting it was blowing holes through. I thought it would be to handle a continuous bead. I had to tap, tap, tap my way around it till I got it filled back in.
Brazing is vibration resistant as well. Often on that cheesy metal a weld creates a stress riser around that weld..and along with a hardness change, will crank at that boundary. Have brazed dirt bike pipes for decades. Second; it's a little "contrarian" as EVERYONE welds. I wanted to show there are many ways to skin a cat. Last; fits the farmer jones "ugly" theme. SO there are actually a few reasons I braze instead of breaking out the mig welder. ( I have one NW )
“Make em functional, they don’t have to be pretty.” With this logic, a wire feed welder will work as well. Surely there’s another reason why you choose to braze in brass?
On transfers with cap like 562/372 X-torq, and die grinder works. I have a small pencil angle head grinder that will fit in a 48mm bore. I don't bother any more
