Man, more times than not I find that the dyed plastics look horrendous. This one though, looks incredible. I have to give credit where it’s due, I’m impressed with that one brother.
try heating your parts up w a torch before spraying w hi temp paint acts like a powder coat almost seems to last forever w out smoking at first time of start up
2258 looks like it’s a cool design… first saw that in the k970 or whatever the big concrete saw is and I loved those two big feeds coming up from the case’s… the 576 is kinda like that design so I’ve got to get into that project… I love this cylinder design and I’d tell ya… I’d like to get hands on this 46mm 50-60 cc type size… should be a banging work saw… I’d be tempted to play with the timing wheel and that piston skirt and see what all if any could be removed… the lighter that piston could get…the longer it’s going to ride on those bearings??? Very nice version of where newer technological advancements in design are helping to make power. I see that Hyway version has removable transfers to make their enlargement work easier like the old Xtorq 372’s… 350’s….???
I do, as about everyone who owns one😄 really like my CS-590. Ironhorse style pipe and BG delete, pretty decent all around saw! Will sooner rather than later plug the high jet bypass. Man! That 2258 looks killer👍 and is leaps and bounds better in the wood than out of the box!
The exhausts you have done like this one and 7310 look and sounds great! Have you had any of them on a dyno to see if there are any gains from kinda a straight pipe setup? I’m new to chainsaw mods but was always into building sleds and quads and always seemed like two stroke needed some back pressure to tune the pipe.
My pipes ARE tuned. Dyno Joe just did a video of my Binford Bad Boy saw. With a modified stock muffler it got something like 3.8hp. With my exhaust, it got 4.3hp. That is an amazing hp jump considering it isn't actually a full expansion chamber pipe. Watch the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EbC05d3m7M8.html
Wondering if they are both running 3/8 chain? Hey menards still has some new old stock jonsered 2238s about 35 of them 1 2250 .straight shaft weed whips and hand held blowers with mail in rebate in search box type jonsered click check nearby stores to see all the stores that have it in stock peace
Wow, nice Work. Just found your Channel and its very nice. Amazing Dye on the Saw. How do you get it that pretty. My Dye got violett not black. Yours is shiny too. How are you doing it?
The dye is just two bottles of Rit black in about three gallons over water, I let it cook at about 180⁰ or so for about an hour. Nothing spectacular. I don't even think about it. I check it, and if it is black...done, if it needs longer...it gets it. Rinse, dry, whipe it good, then I use Cerakote whipes. I've got a video on them.
@@Witschor Like I wrote it. John's recipe was overly complicated. I've done it a lot at this point. Water and dye is all you need. All the other stuff is hokie. The grafite does give it a sheen though. But all of the dipping into cool water and stuff is absolutely unnecessary.
@@novicelumberjack thats nice to know, i will try to get that Rit here in Europe. I tried to use an other Brand but Rit seems to be the only Product that works well. Thanks for your Help.
I was gonna buy one of those newer ones from the store but the design of it looked cheaper than the poulan that I'm use to using so i bought the poulan instead maybe next time I'll try one of those
Yeah, when it does, I'll make a Wack-Off with it and then probably go back in and cut the squish to see how much of a difference it makes. I think there is still a lot more power to be had with this saw.
@@novicelumberjack for sure.. All my 5 series were quite boring when new but man after the rings bed in they really like to rev. Obviously a muff mod always help them to rev easier but you’ve already got that covered lol.. That’s a fun looking and sounding saw
@@novicelumberjack not sure what difference it would make. It would be interesting. They’re pretty zippy already. Some saws don’t gain a lot. Some are way off from the factory. you know how it goes.
Boedy's Power Saws. I have goals of ordering a bunch of bars with my brand name on them for resale. I painted it on myself, but I think I have settled on the brand being called "Woodsman" instead. What do you think about that?
I think whatever u want to name it is cool because it is yours and u made it !!! I really like your channel and the direction you're taking. Thanks bps/woodsman!!
@@alexstromberg7696 I should of specified. When he gets off of the throtte it was sounding like it was scavenging for fuel. 4 strokeing is a different thing. (Edit) also i said "on some of those cuts". I should of said after some of those cuts. Sorry bout that.
So...you're thinking that it is pulling too much fuel and going out the exhaust? Because the pipe was built to help scavenge all the spent gasses out of the cylinder, helping to draw fuel up through the transfers. Are you saying that sometimes it sounds like it is drawing too much charge out the exhaust?
Im not 100% sure, BUT. When one of my saws was running too lean and i got off the throttle it acted like it wanted to run on and it would not idle down as fast as it normaly would. My brother told me that it happens when your saw is lean and it ends up sucking a lean mixture out of the carb while its sopost to be idleing down. Makeing it fatter resolved my issue. With that being said... I dont know how or if an autotune saw can even adjust it's self to be fat enough to run normaly once its been ported. 🤔 Is there a way to tune it manualy? (Edit) heres what i would do if it was a normal carb. Id fatten up the low jet so its not trying to burn through whats left of the vapors as it idleing down. It should come down in rpm faster than what it was in the video. I trust your judgement better than mine but i do know for sure that mine did the same thing untill i fattened up the low jet.
@@wompwomp9 gotcha. I did think it was idling a touch too high, but blamed it on the loud exhaust. But I also would have turned it down if I could have. However, I didn't notice the chain moving at all during idle, so even if it is a scosche too high, it isn't high enough to cause problems...so that's good.
I could, but it's just too darn labor intensive. Takes me about three hours to make one. I'm looking into having things plasma cut to make several pipes in one go. Then it would be worth it to sell to folks. As it is, I'd have to charge about $180 for it to be worth the effort.
