I got the squis down to where I want it, no rod cutting or welding needed, but still would be fun to try.

It feels good, nice little work saw, it has its place in what it has to do when called upon.   Minimal running, let it cool down, its at 165 psi.

No pressure or vacuum leaks after the filing? How did you keep the filings out of the bottom end?

No leaks, stuff bottom end with oily rag.  Then wash bottom end many times with gasoline and blow it out, add oil to all bearings before start up.

I was using a piece of a cutting tool for a flat edge and shining a light behind it while it was sitting on the case, along with checking squish every so often.

Well, no matter how unorthodox a method it seems to have worked out for you. You had great luck with the C/P off e-Bay so I guess your luck is still holding. Perhaps you should think about a lottery ticket!

I would like to see that saw run one day and the method you used to deck the case!

I need to ask because I've been wondering since you hand filed the case. How did you make sure the filed case was keep square all the way around? Any pics of the filed case?

No pics of the filled case.  Not really sure if the case is 100% square, I kept putting the jug on shinning lights and checking squish at 4 points.
