    They come for different size clips 8-9, 10, 12 and bigger, and spare parts are available. I think I have 3 or 4 setups for different sizes. They have a mark on the pusher that lets you get the opening in the clip positioned right where you want it!

    The otherway, (that I do) is if you have the Iphone 5 (others may have it too) is go to the edit mode if you forget to get the camera rotated the correct way is: Rotate pic...save it...then rotate the pic back up the correct way...save it.

    I have an iPhone...no clue what version...but I turn it sideways and use the volume button to take the picture...so that means the home button is on the left and the volume buttons are on the top right

    The real work in this is editing the posts to insert the corrected pics.

    22 pics to DL, rotate, and reinsert. I waited until I was on the comp for that job.

    Yea it really is...though I've never tried it with an aftermarket piston. I'd like to and I have just the saw at my place right now...just waiting on the piston.
    Well I certainly appreciate it. I have a few more rebuilds coming up I'll be doing so I'll post those up too. They certainly aren't as interesting as threads done with port work involved I figure someone might be interested in seeing the internals of saws they might not of seen before. :thumbs:

    My 360pro has a meteor. I used oem clips though so I can't say. If I'm not mistaken the meteor clips I got with it had the ears and I just didn't trust em. Why do you prefer the meteor clips:popcorn:

    I don't blame you for not using ones with ears. I have not seen them with meteor. The last two I have purchased the grooves were machined wider and deeper, needing a thicker clip which they supplied.

    OEM would not of worked well with them.......they were for a ms460 and ne346xp. Bought 1 week ago

    I could be totally wrong...it was a while ago when I did the 360. I just remember clips with ears. I have a 460 here on my list to tear diwn and rebuild...I planned in using a meteor...as long as the cylinder is usable...so I will know soon enough.
