The other simple modification, is figure out the clearance at TDC and remove base gasket. Should it stay over about 0.020 thousands without the gasket. . I have one clone original edition 372 i did it to, plus a replacement 52mm piston. One serious low end power band. . Basically i was trying to create an obsolete gen 1 372 xpw that had a 51.4mm piston, thats no longer available worldwide. Its pretty close to the same performance.
Hey buddy you need to be wearing safety equipment out there and boots and everything you can't be out there in summer attire and be working like that
Usually, I do just testing out a new tool.
I hate these things with a passion. They make more noise than jet plane. And all these small engines put out more emissions than a car engine. Yet they don't ban them. Try using a rake. Make America skinny again.
Rakes do work for some stuff, but have you tried to get sawdust out of the grass to make yard look good for a customer. If the customer isn't happy, they won't be a good referal or repeat customer.
@@BertsCustomCuts Where i live is a different story. It's only gardeners in an area with houses 20 feet about who use them at 8 am in the morning. The flying tacos.
What are you using the dress the wheel?
It's a wheel dressing tool that I got with my bench grinder.
Bert I need a filling
Just remember, I dont do numbing when doing fillings.
I love my Echo saws. I have owned every major brand in the last 40 years. I liked my Jonsereds but you hardly see them anymore. My favorite was a Shindaiwa which is now the larger Echo's. They run great and are very dependable. Unfortunately, our dealer recently closed. That little saw cuts very well.
Thanks for sharing!
Nice tune up on that saw. It cut faster.
May need to adjust tuning a little.
Being a Machinist , I'm sure if u did some cylinder work and all tht other mumbo jumbo , you could do some nice porting to sawz
Maybe one day
There is a small difference in speed.
There will be more difference after I get it tuned a little bit.
I think it helped some. I got a older husky I have been thinking about doing something like that to.
I had thought about it for a while and am glad I did it.
Good one, Bert. You never know if you don’t have a go at it. Great video….
Very true!
I had to pull the limiter caps off the high and low speed jets to get a good tune after doing similar mods.
I might have to do that yet.
Nice video Bert. Little top handle ran pretty good stock for an older but well maintained saw. Snappier doesn’t hurt if the noise doesn’t bother you. I like your bucking table.
It's still quieter than a stock 592xp
I did the same mods to a stihl 291 and the difference was definitely noticeable. Biggest change I noticed was the throttle response. Much snappier response after modification.
Throttle response is better.
Good morning Bert!!😀😀
Morning Al
I have a CS-400 I purchased in 2007 I did a muffler mod to it now my 42cc saw performs like a 50cc saw. Great video Bert , keep on cutting
Thanks 👍
Looked like you had fun doing it. Satisfying inquiring minds is health. Well worth the time. Well done.
It was fun. It definitely is louder.
I've removed every spark arrestor on all my saws. They run better without them.
I'll run it more and maybe end up taking it out.
Nice modding 😊
Thanks
Hi Bert nice video love it ( Ty Ron
Thanks glad you liked it.
Great video!! Poor man's fixes a lot of things!! Thanks for showing us ways to get more out of our small saws!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks! Will do!
Remember cutting up toothpick all you need is sharp bucksaw is fastest thing per square inch in the wood 🪵 BERT . 😊
Bert a bread 🍞 chainsaw is all a bread 🍞 chainsaw . If you want noise 575 Cummins under the hood with straight pipe 😊. Now your talking ponies under the hood in a chainsaw . Probably should work on CHRIS 572 XP it need work under the hood for in the wood 🪵 yard . If iiiii iiiiii was you send it to DONNY WALKER chainsaw shop. Com got years of practice and know how to do work under the hood . Where your in the USA 🇺🇸 sent it IRON HORSE 🐎 got a good name for work under the hood in a chainsaw . In your case just take the muffler right off if your into noise BERT . 😮
The Rusty Pony.
Do you adjusft the rakers with the grinder or with a file?
I adjust the rakers with a file on saw as needed.
Hi Bert: Do you change the grinding profile for different chains? There are a lot of people that just use one standard profile and they use that on all there chains.
I use the same profile and set up for all my chains except the .404 chain for the processor. We did try it on there, but it was too aggressive, so we sharpen them with a dremel on the processor.
Nice video Bert. Seems to be a nice,low budget way to sharpen. Camera focused up close and personal.
Did some closeup footage per request in comments from my last sharpening video.
Good morning Bert! Thanks for the close-ups and walk through of your process. Cheers!
My pleasure!!
Nice job sharpening Bert. Great video.
Thanks 👍
Great video Bert! Thanks for having us along on this one! 🔥💯👍🤜🤛. Andrew from NB :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Not sure if you noticed the tooth lifting up when you hit the chain stop. My grinder does the same thing and I usually have to hold it down then clamp it. Do this happen to any one else?
It lifts up but never have any problems with it doing that.
Nice and sharp! Great camera work👍👍
Thanks Jeremiah
@ 5;35 YOU CAN SEE THE NAIL BITER. but later you explain. Good job
Thanks for watching.
Great job Bert. If you cut a lot, that is a good investment. It is so much more enjoyable cutting with a sharp chain.
It sure is!
Great video! I just switched over to cbn and also bought a diamond for carbide. It has been a absolute game changer, sharpening 3/8 28" and 36" chains.. All 3 cost $320 from Sharpening Supply. Keep up the great video's!
I thought about some CBN wheels, but they dont make them for the profile I grind.
Great video!! Like the close up camera work!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Thanks you too
That grind is an eager beaver. Good stuff. 🔥
It sure is and they cut great.
Having the opportunity to confirm my own grinder angles vs your setup was greatly appreciated. Thank You! I did figure out I needed to add about .005" to my raker height .025-.30" from what I would typically run in hardwood vs a conventional grind or hand filed chain .030-.035 on a 592XP, I have not tried this grind on a smaller saw as of yet.
Glad I could help!
Great close ups and camera angles, I generally wear a magnifyng glass/hood but this video made me think I would love your camera setup and my 28" monitor set up near my grinder. 👍👍👍
It wasn't easy with the camera in the way to sharpen.
Thanks for answering the burr question. I was wondering about that.
Burr rolls off easily.
Is there footage of the splitting that’s not sped up?
I dont remember from when I edited this one. I have another one to edit soon and will try not to speed it up.
Great camera angles and close ups on the sharpening process. Is dressing your sharpening wheel parallel to the rail when angled over how you get the more square profile on your chainsaw teeth?
That is how I get the more square profile. Id does work with a small radius in bottom.
Bert you need a diamonds 💎 wheel . do a lot better job on the chainsaw tooth . Them stone that come with electric grinder is junk I just be told by peoples who sharpen chain for living. The same with hand 🤚 file get what you buy for working with NO name knock ✊ off stuff Bert . Remember a good 👍 sharpening stone probably cost 💲 more them the grinder . Same if you we’re running 🏃♂️ a bandsaw mill for blades and a good 👍 sharpening tool make beautiful timber for sure . 😊 you should have a contract keeping Chris chainsaw chains sharpen for him. 😊 take care
Would require a custom made 🤑diamond wheel for his grind, You! should have a couple made up for him for testing purposes two will be required one for each grinder.
I have thought about the CBN wheels, but they dont make 1 for my grind profile.
Thank You Bert nice video love it ( Ron
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice demonstration video of how you do it 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Goes quick compared to Dremel 😊
Depends on whether one adds or subtracts the time required to replace the chain, both have their advantages disadvantages same goes for a file they all have their time and place.
It is fast, but files or dremels work as well.
That is some great close up footage Bert, what camera are you using?
My cell phone. Galaxy note 20
@@BertsCustomCuts impressive!
Does the build up on the tooth stop affect the setting up of the wheel? Love the close up’s 👍
No, because where it hits the stop, there isn't buildup on it. I do wipe it off occasionally.
I’am burning bass wood & poplar early
That work too
People that complain about free stuff shouldn't be given free stuff.
Yup. I told him if he needs wood cash in hand before loading.
A guy I know will soon have a farm conveyor ready for me to use in the woodyard. Going to be so nice to load dump trailers with it instead of chucking it and killing my shoulders.
Conveyors help alot.
