The Most Powerful Two Stroke, Comeback! 

Glad to see you are back among the living, young man. Now get your ass back to work! I want to see you go fast!

It's great that you can talk freely about your motivation coming and going. I think it will help other people, myself included, to do the same.

Hey. I just want to let you know that I appreciate all that you do, and all that you are willing to teach us. I have been watching you for about 2-3 years now, and Ive used alot of your advice to tune my two strokes. Thank you so much for making videos! Please keep making em! We love them!

Likes low rpm wood chopping, loves high rpm 2strokes

"I'm a lumberjack and i'm ok .........." :)

even tho a part does not fit, it gets the gears turning in your head possible modifications and future improvements for the part once you can adapt it to your engine design. we're always in a creative learning process, but you're forging a path for everyone!

When you're cutting aluminum, with angle grinder cutoff disks, spin the grinder disc thru bees wax or a good wax, and it will cut faster and smoother and the discs last longer, an old man told me this 30 yrs ago and it really does work you'll be amazed.

Me being a double lung transplant patient having sometime hard times is getting a lot of "air" from your videos :) thx for that!! Keep on going please. Greetz, Josh (having a 1989 TOMOS AT50-AB restoration project)

Im sure a million people have asked if you have ever considered a turbo.

Listen, you don't owe us ANYTHING ok? Just take your time. We're not going anywhere. =)

I used to use those flat slide valves in the swimming pool business doing swimming pool & spa repairs.

Good to see that you're doing better dude, and fantastic to hear that you work with kids. I can't think of anyone better than you to pass on a love of learning and problem solving to my kids, fancy moving to England?

This is an interesting episode... I think that he should plan on making an adapter plate that will fit the flange for the carb neck, to the engine... It could be done with a 1/2" (13-mm) thick piece of aluminum, the width of the engine's intake mounting pad, and the height of the base plate for the throttle body/carb. Flush (countersunk) screws can be used to secure the plate to the engine pad... The intake boot should be secured to the adapter plate by tapping holes drilled into the adapter plate... The transition from the larger carb./thrtllle body boot hole can be blended into the smaller hole of the engine smoothly to minimise turbulent intake flow... I like what this fella has done in the past with 2-strokes... He has a real nack with them... Like so many people, He would be at his FULL POTENTIAL if he was not distracted by this covid-19 sensationalized news circuis...

You can cut aluminum with a carpenters circular saw, something like makita or equivalent, just use the saw blades that have the tungsten tips. Little bit of wd40 on the work piece and it cuts like butter. I have used my hand held circular saw to cut 25mm plate.

I’m glad you are feeling better 👍 I was going to comment on your wood chopping video but I didn’t. I could relate to you about social media and sometimes feeling bombarded with messages, my channel grew a lot this winter and along with wonderful comments also came extremely negative ones, and at some points I contemplated if posting on RU-vid was something I even wanted to continue to do, but I have decided to keep moving forward and sharing helpful videos on fabrication work. I live in the Pacific Northwest and we get very wet gray winters here too, I sometimes get down in the winter, I have found as long as I can find a good large project to work on that can help me get though the winters. I started a articulating 4x4 mini bump truck this winter 😂 Anyhow it’s good to see you are getting going on this again, lathes are awesome, I picked one up a few years ago and it’s been a game changer! Michael from Washington state 👍

make the adapter with the drill press, drill the holes tap thread, then cut and file the hole 32mm one side 40mm on the other, so plate does the transition

Glad you got your motivation back. Some physical work outdoors is great to make you feel better.

use your part you cut from metal and set counter sunk for machine head screws to the cylinder and on the back side set threads to mount the valve, only four holes to make. the port in the middle will not need to be center just as large as the cylinder port.

I can relate to your wood chopping therapy. I like going into the woods alone sometimes. Its an actual japanese therapy called wood-bathing. The other day i was just chopping wood for fun, forgot the time and two hours passed. I felt really fullfilled

If you have a live center, you could put that in the tailstock, remove the jaws from your chuck, center drill your aluminum piece and then use the tailstock to press the aluminum against the chuck body. Then after you are done turning, finish the center hole with a hole saw. I would probably switch to a hacksaw, bandsaw or tablesaw for cutting aluminum. You can load up abrasive disks and then explode. Your layout should probably be done with a caliper or a height gauge. Learn to lay out a hole pattern from measurements instead of tracing, you will be able to get a lot more precise that way. Good luck this year, I'm hoping for dry salt.

Nature inspired kindergarten. Man I love that.

Look up POSA carb’s its along the same design as your hottub valve, i ran one on my Yamaha RT 180 with limited success, i can show you some pictures of it through facebook bit wont let me post them on here

It takes time to get in the flow, so I am happy to see you have started the process. Take care of you and yours! 😊 👍

"That'll be a first on the lathe. I bought a new axe!" did a bit of a 180 there, but ok

PVC is not great in warm conditions. The gate valve you have will fail. At 50c it will start to soften. You need CPVC. It is much more heat stable. Look at a butterfly valve, much better and will produce far less turbulence. It is identical to the butterfly in a carburetor but provides an airtight seal when closed.

A Norse woodsman with a red beard, you probably fit well into some of your kids story books now.

Glad to see your mental health better. You were a little glumly during your winter... keep stroking

Don't worry a 2MT to 3MT adapter wont effect accuracy.

Please get a parting tool for your lathe mate, that hacksaw could get caught up And pull your arm into the chuck !!! Safety tip for the day mate , be careful.

It could be done without the lathe. Mark the center and 4 mounting holes, drill small centerhole and mark the 40 mm on one side and 32 on the other. Drill center with a 30 mm cup drill Working in aluminium you can easily file out the step from 32 to 40 mm. Finish with the 4 mounting holes.

You could have bolted the aluminium blank to the PVC part and use that to hold it in the lathe. You'd need to remove the PVC seal lip but there's usually a solution.

nice to see you are getting over the winter blues

Those jaws are stepped on that chuck so you can reverse them and gain more capacity

Confidence in your voice. Sounds great, Good luck to you and yours.

That is not an axe, this is an axe. What is it about Vikings and axes

Great to see you feeling better about life. We all have our up and down days so that makes you human. Cheers🍻🏁👍🏽

Were back, fire up the still, and sharpen the axe. There’s work to be done!

Deamn bro at least u live in a forest place imagine ppl in the big complex buildings passing all the day inside they little apartments, at least this is now in italy

Good to see you back man, looking forward to more videos👍🏻

Chopping with an axe makes me happy too!

Just Echo your "friends"" of 2STROKE STUFFING, good to see that you have regained your ""Spirit"". Please work safe.

Glad to see you've got your mojo back - looking forward to continuing progress on your project!

The most powerful Ax ever made :] Good Stuff

Playing with kids all day is exhausting. I understand you.

Good 2 see you! Haven’t checked in in a while, Very few cases here in Texas, but I’m in the hill country high on a craggy rough mountainside ( 4wheel drive country). I rarely go into populated areas anyway. Chloroquine? Drinking Tonic Water? Stay safe!!!!!

That stream are 100% free energy

I am only subscribed to this. When will we see this running.

+1 Serenity of Nature

so it's basiclly a two stroke axe? more work done per stroke?

Back at it!

It's good to see you back and motivated, keep chopping!

Drill a hole through the middle of the plate and use a bolt to hold it in the chuck to machine the step? Then holesaw through the middle?

What a beautiful heart to share. More daylight is coming. Doing something while you enjoy it is great

Great job . Take care .

reverse the jaws of the chuck jack!

good your feeling better :)

Glad to see it back! :)

Getting my first kx125, and you are an inspiration

@2STROKE STUFFING. I have some smaller four jaw chucks I never use. What’s a good address. I can send one to you. Also need to know what mounting style your lathe is. You might need to get a backing plate. But one I have might fit the way it is. Also have a tone of other lathe related items. Hit me up

now that you have a new ax fight the urge to get on the ferry to England and plunder a church

This video should be titled 'man cuts square' 🤷🏻‍♂️

My friend..are you allowed to use a chainsaw in Norway..at least an electric one?

yay! alex is back on the ball.....lets get STUFFING!!!!

Norway looks alot like Colorado....great scenery 2 stroke axes....the next thing ?

PVC ball valve might work, you might be able to find a metal one

Make a plate to suit the crankcase and a second plate to carry the other plate for the seal

Have you tried turning the jaws around on your chuck for larger materials??

Glad you're feeling better. Now go fast!!

Sunshine and fresh air 🌞😊💪...God speed to all be well.

Hey Mate, welcome back..I have family in Stavanger and they are saying things are closed tighter than prison there..My niece has a serious illness that caused her to be hospitalised this week and she said the Ambo's came in full hazmat suits to help her..Stay well and nice work again Man..

Good luck on this!

Very happy to see you got some motivation back. This virus has really caused some depression and fear amongst all of us...

The slide valve looks rather too big for the inlet port which would normally mean a very poor throttle 'resolution' (may not be a problem for an engine built only for top speed). You could remake the flange in plastic with a 32mm id to match the port or you could make a (PVC?) ring with a 32mm id and glue it in the existing flange. Thats a nice axe!

Om du skruvar ut chucken för fullt, kan du vända käftarna på dom flesta, och få plats med större diameter!

Du veit at du ikke er den eneste gærningen med dreibenk her i Norge? Det kunne jo hende at vi andre kunne hjelpe deg med dreiing av de delene som er for store for benken din :-)

Why not just use a suitable size throttle body or even just the base plate and throttle plate of a single barrel carb?

Hello. Be carefull if you choose a more heavy axe. Because, you will loosing in the speed of the movement. With a not too much heavy one, you have a good speed and that did the job a bit more easy. And you are less tired and can work more longer time. I prepare to do a vidéo about this. I hope than you take care to you. keep on buildind you engine. Ok, keep safe.

I have a feeling there's going to be a nitro chain saw on this channel in the future

You're a man's man. Engine work, forest work. We'd get along.

I did the same thing! Only I was cutting briars! It was a good day!

My friend work from home to. He likes it. Gå på tur

Take care of yourself. Don't worry, you're not alone !

Please don't use a saw with the lathe running......not safe! Get a good carbide tipped parting tool. Keep the speed up and have confidence....and lubricate.

You get more work done for each stroke says the two stroke guy

I'd say no to the Selettra ignition, problematic at best. Better go for HPI or PVL.

Immediately subscribed

You have the right shirt on for chopping tree's 👍 There is a saying in the UK that a change is better than a break

RCK ON Alex!!!

congratulations you are very good, sorry for my little English but the guillotine is used to partialize at the start of the engine?

Can I ask any of the viewers is there not another place to be able to test this in Norway or somewhere in Europe? similar to a saltflat?

Take care man, always awesome vids!! From Edmonton Alberta Canada

I wanna see some plug chopping 😂

is it not possible to reverse each of the jaws in the chuck ? (I think you keep them in the same jaw number position) - while using a 3 jaw chuck isn't as good as a 4 jaw...

someone help this guy out this is taking forever

Great job helping out kindergarteners too!

Brake out the scotch and keep up the good work 👍🏼

For å si det sånn.. Å se du har lagt ut en ny video, gjør dagen min mye bedre! Sitter på jobb og ser :-) Bare så du vet!

You should get some cut off tools for your lathe, much easier and more precise

Finally my guy

Great to see you have found something that gives you energy, On the engine side of things have you thought about getting a cheap cnc router? the accuracy on them is garbage but something sub 1000 like a proxxon mf 70 micro mill, open builds cnc router or an MPCNC might just be good enough for the kind of work your doing
