Spuds Porting and Tuning Thread

[spudulike]

I think he has run for cover. Porting suits some and not others. The guys that really like it are forestry guys who cut tonnes of timber per day and get paid on volume.

 

The climbers like the fact they can do more of a reduction and not resort to a larger saw.

 

Then there are the lads who just want a faster saw!

 

I always point out that the saws should be for personal use and not for employees.

Slightly off topic but I didn't think it was worth starting a new thread but what is the best cleaner for a chainsaw? Mine is covered in sap

MUCK-OFF MO-94 is good

A few yeas back we were coppicing Hazel . I had my Spud ported 346 and my mate had his standard one . We stopped for a break . When we started again my mate picked up my saw inadvertently and I took his with out realizing . After I fired it up I thought there must be something wrong with it . Took me a second or so to twig . It was like night and day between the two .

TBH, I just cut firewood for my burner so limited knowledge of different types of cutting but the 346XP LE goes mad with porting. It has to be one of the fastest picking up saws that you can get once done. The fastest of blips of the throttle hits 12Krpm and they are very capable with good AV. Hardest part is finding a decent one!

 

So if you are coppicing 4-6" diameter wood, this saw would make the job damn enjoyable:thumbup:

Ported 346XP on a 15" bar driven by an 8pin would sort them .

I'm thinking 50-70cc ?
