Planning on building a pipe for mine soon, glad to see tubing size to get close. Think I'm going to TIG up a stainless one. May look cool

What parts of VA julius

It’s pretty tight where it’s at and I think that you’ll only get marginal gains at best. But as like everything in life, it’s up to you.

Thats right in my "acceptable" range.

The “super porter’s” use .020 I’ve always used.025 thou I just assume that I’m pretty lazy and I might get some carbon over it’s lifetime 25 thou run’s great across all my bore sizes… I think after 30 thou you might start loosing a little but there are many factory bore’s that are 40 or more… I think 20 to 30 is safe with my goal being 25… if you ever need a little metal shim stock to expand your 1184 or dirko gasket try a Mountain Dew or soda can with a little hit of a 220 grit on the palm sander to clean it up… there’s a couple thou difference between the manufacturers so with a little research… you’ll know if you need to have a can or beer or a Coke with your dinner that night before you finish your project! 😂😂😂. It’s funny but the cheaper “store brand soda’s” have a thicker aluminum can usually! 😂😂👍

@@DaveyBlue32 I have ran this saw and it does have a bit of carbon on it so I'm gonna guess that stihls number is 0.025 just like you have so there's some margin of error and room for carbon to collect over its life.

@@FishFind3000 you’ll find that the factory squish will vary greatly across their models… I’m a Husqvarna guy from way back and I ran the 371’s and 372’s… we were told that most saw’s land around 30 thousand without a base gasket so that if a guy is rebuilding in the field and doesn’t have the base gasket that they can bolt on the new topend and go back to work… most production saw’s are way out with their base gasket in place. I’ve just been really happy with 25 thou.. I did a 660 kit with a meteor topend that was at 18 without a base gasket and I’ve been running it for a couple months just like it is… I figured at some point I’ll probably make a coke can metal shim stock gasket to get a little more room… it’s really rich on 32:1 so I’ve got some time before it need’s cleaned up or more head room… I figured that I’d use this one as a tester to see what carbon deposits or build up that I am getting in a year… I know it’s coming apart down the road some so I want to run it enough to really check out my oil brand and my ratio for buildup…

do you have a link or search criteria. I see lots of dental tools but nothing that will attach to a foredom.

@@tech-test-break-fix The tolerances on mine seem to be pretty poor. I had to drill out the base of the tool to allow it to fit over the foredom flex shaft. The collet is also 3mm, so I reamed that out to 0.126" to run 1/8" cutters. Using a 1/8" drill bit only opened it to ~0.124", which was just too small for 1/8" tooling, hence the reamer for the last little bit. Going up to the next size drill bit would be quite a bit larger, and I worried it would cause way too much runout. Quite a bit of hassle, but I bought it with the expectation that a no-name attachment straight from China might not work at all. The front end bearing is also super crunchy, so who knows how long it will last. For 1/10 the price of a high quality tool I figured it was worth a shot. Works ok for my purposes, but if people were paying me to use these tools I'd certainly buy the good one.

@@tech-test-break-fix I tried but it looks like my responses were deleted. "90 degree" is the term you're looking for.
