Chainsaw Repair

I got some larger diameter screws with grommets under the heads to give a little more tension on them while not having to tighten too much and pull the threads through the metal.  Seems to have worked for the moment.  I imagine I could get a small nut and bolt in there too, IDK, for now it seems OK.  Put it back together again and made some cuts and it is holding for the moment.  I like it, but I wish I had more wood out back.    Had a couple rounds of junk wood, left over wind downed pine in the back of the yard.  Not the best video, but I didn't have a lot of time.  I'll get some better video and hopefully find some better wood out there tomorrow.  Here's what I got for now though.

did you open up the exh. port to match the gasket

I didn't go crazy,  this was a learning project. Exhaust is just about on the gasket, little less. I didn't do Al lot to transfers, there's pictures a page or two back showing where I left things.

Thank you, I think it came out pretty well. Gain wise the most probably came from opening the muffler,  truthfully. The new piston also, it seems a bit snappier than it did before. In the video I was pushing it pretty hard, which shows since I bogged it down a couple times. Definitely pulls harder than it did,  seems like a nice little saw. It's really light which is nice, and will make a sweet limbing saw. Hoping with some break in it loosens up some too.
