Bailey's Univent (Husky 372xpg)

[squisher]

Damn Al you need to come on up and do a facelift on my crack shack!

Brian, It'll be interesting to see when you stick that thing in some wood how it does against your other already modded saws.

 

[woodworkingboy]

Al, glad that you got rid of those cutout heart shapes by the windows. I thought that Henrika might be coming out after milking Berta

 

[rbtree]

No, it is a Univent 575...
I think you mean the one shown in Univents page and that disc saw is K750, same as 575 with fresh air engin...

Thanks, Magnus...

I was going by the engine size, given at 74.5cc, which i thought was the same as a 372XPG.....the 575 is 73.5......

 

[Magnus]

I am wrong many times a day, you'll get used to it after a while!

This is a rescue saw to begin with. The ones with Carbide chain and protections..
If it had been a cut of saw it would have been a no goer....

Here is the 575 with this gear on it..

Could not find a pic of the Univent 372 now other than in Baily's...

Molybdenum impregnated and hardened aluminum/magnesium cylinder head with drop forged 74cc piston and moly-rings, increases compression, reduces heat and extends engine life.

Very poor timed comparison cuts. But the guy tried to do side by side comparison of a brand new 1st tank univent against woods ported by Ed 20 tanks through it or so side by side . The guy was under the impression the univent was ported too. Seems like a little grey area selling going on .

The EHP saw sure revs up higher. My EHP372 is a revver as well, very fast saw.

 

[squisher]

First tank would hardly be a comparison imo. Although my EHP saws rip too.

 

[Cut4fun]

I have ran 2 Ed ported 372 and 375 saws and none of them could touch the Dan Henry PP372 I have in cants for timed cuts.
But who needs the fastest saw for a work saw anyway . All 3 cut like heck .

 

[squisher]

Hell faster the better!!!

I'll never, ever, go back to stock. Never.

Brian you put this thing to some wood yet?

Nope, I haven't worked since I got it. I did get to go trim two palm trees today but the 372 would probably be overkill for that task.

Danny has made some fast saws as well. My old 371 (that Danny built out of junk saws on a Thursday and ran at Webster on Saturday) has an amazing amount of torque and will outcut my EHP372 on anything over 20" or so. Ed's is faster on the smaller stuff thanks to higher RPM at the price of some torque.

DO I have to send you a chunk of wood to cut Brian.. Sheesh!... LOL

[CurSedVoyce]

Wonder what a good piece of oak would cost to ship to Florida.. LOL

 

[sawinredneck]

I've got the Oak, hmmmmmmmmmmmm........................



edit: I'd rather send a chunk of Hedge, trial by fire!!!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I have to check into a 4' long by at least 12". Would that be an over size package?... LOL

You don't want to know It's right at a buck pound from Ohio to either the far coast or central Fla from here . I was going to send a piece of hickory to Frans but the price was prohibitive .


Not to worry old B will lay that thing to the wood in due time .

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Maybe there is a local mail order online log store in FL.... LOL

DOH!!!!!

But I posted a link and embeded them at least

I think the Stihl bar on the Husqy saw skewed everything.

 

[SkwerI]

I opened up this saw today just to look inside. I was thinking about grinding on the ports a little but my crappy little air grinder wouldn't fit into the ports and the hand file wasn't doing anything. Seemed a bit harder metal than the aftermarket big bore cylinder I put on the MS460 earlier this week. So I slapped it back together and made sure it still ran. No leftover parts and it fired up!

There was an ever so slight scuff mark on the intake side of the jug but it was smooth. I can only guess some debris was in the motor from the original manufacture. But it was smooth, no gouge whatsoever that I could see or feel.

 

[wiley_p]

I think the Stihl bar on the Husqy saw skewed everything.

Considering that the chain wasn't getting any oil on it, I'd have to agree. Guess the guy didn't know that Stihl mount and Husky mount ARE two different things.

 

[Reddog]

I thought that is what this took care of
