Not me. 45:1 H1R Belray. It's 2-4 pulls cold, 99% of the time it's 3. I don't recall it ever taking more than 2 to start hot, and 99% of the time it's 1. As soon as I hear it getting low on gas I shut it down and fill it.

I've never had much problem chunking with a 261 personally...but if you don't like it I get it. The only reason I trade my 14" climbing bar for my 18" 261 for chunking is because it's faster. Full bar in Oak on my 355t just takes a bit too long for my liking. Especially when I have a tool...

This is what I had on Saturday:

I also have a Thermapen and the original Smoke 2 channel. Had the smoke for 5 years and I've changed the battery once. I smoke every other weekend at least sometimes more. They're great units. I want one of the newer 4 channel ones, but mine just keeps on working.

I know there are some serious boat guys in here, so they probably have you covered, however, I had an OLD ranger boat for a few years. Hull was a 77, outboard was a 79 Johnson 70 horse. I had a somewhat similar problem in that it would run on 2 cylinders in a seemingly random manner. At first...

Switched from Stihl Ultra to Belray H1R just to try something different and hopefully better. I'v heard that it doesn't burn well in stock saws and will make a mess....well, after about 2 gallons of the stuff at about 45:1/40:1, I took a look at he exhaust, and this is what I found. This is a...

Before: During: After:

Can't blame them there. Nothing like putting millions into R&D just to have China buy 1 saw, copy it, and sell it at discount prices and ignorant consumers eat it up.

This is not uncommon at all in multi-national companies. Honda for example....early in their introduction to the American market got the stigma of being cheap budget cars. When they wanted to start putting out more 'luxury' or non-budget minded cars, they had a difficult time selling. So they...

Buy a Fiskar, some stencils, and some orange spray paint?

They were great...back in the day. IMO they're pretty easy to beat now-days.

If you want longer burn times, which the Brinkman smokers are definitely NOT known for, get you a Weber Smokey Mountain. With temps in the 70's, I can get burn times up to 18 hours with a full load of charcoal. Depends on the wind and other factors, but 12 hours is easy, 16 hours without much...

idk, the vibrations sent through the saw from hit hitting the wood could jostle a mechanical issue back to normal. Not saying that's the issue here, but I could see it.

Knot will weaken any material. Free...give it a shot.

MBS 6000lbs or WLL 6000lbs? Also...why? A good 5/8" rope is rated WAY over that, doesn't really cost that much, redirects way better, and will probably last longer. Piece of mind is worth quite a bit too. No way would I be using it to pull trees...

Agree, saw seems to pulse at start up(wasn't sure if that was him messing with the throttle or not though.) Are you sure this is a V2 saw? Maybe try a V3 reset on it.

Honda. Get whatever model has features you think you want/need. Absolutely love mine. Really like the composite deck too. No rusting issues. Honda motors are obviously highly recommended.

One saw? 462 with a 20" bar, 28" bar, and a 32" bar.

The bark is the best part, IMO. The bark is the culmination of your rub, type of wood used, and your ability to manage the fire correctly. The moist tender inside is just picking a brisket with enough intramuscular fat and pulling it off when it's tender. What we perceive as 'moisture' is...

I do the same with a remote probe. But to check for tenderness I still use an instant read....not for the temp part of it, but to check for tenderness. Pork butt doesn't really matter nearly as much as brisket. Pork over 200 will be pull apart tender every single time. Brisket, not so much.
