    Don't bother. That stuff doesn't burn worth a darn.

    Made some test cuts with the K960 today. I cut some concrete pavers I have for stacking wood on in half. I must say I am impressed with the saw.

    This was the PTO side crank bearing when I tore it down.

    Minty 371xp I traded for. Ran 2 tanks of fuel and things started acting up... shut her down and easy fix.

    Previous owner informed me he had local shop repair fuel starvation issues.... I believe him had receipts and was a good guy to deal with. Problem is, the shop forgot to install something :whistle:

    Don't put that screen in and you plug up with saw dust pretty quick!!! If you have the screen you only last a bit longer till you lean out still.

    Had a Poulan that was packed with sawdust like that that leaned out till I found The gunk.

    A lot of the same guys that do it on ThE other sites. I know there is a handful of guys here. I won't call any names cause I don't want anyone to feel left out. I'm sure some will be around shortly

    A few guys do porting that venture over here from time to time. Millermodsaws is one. I'm too behind to take any work right now. I have a 385 I started a week and a half ago waiting on me to get off 7-12s.
