    First chainsaw!

    Thanks! The handle is really good. The shafts changes are a lot easier than my Stihl handle. Honestly, I’m definitely willing to test out another brand saw. My Stihl 261 is awesome, and it ain’t going anywhere, but I will be buying a 2nd saw at some point in time lol. So yeah, maybe a Husqvarna...

    I had no idea it did that! I was just in awe over how good the actual files are. Very cool. Thanks!

    First chainsaw!

    I have been using a 3/16 or 4.8mm Stihl branded round file. But I finally figured out the technique. I bought a Husqvarna file kit today. It came with a guide and all that jazz, but the guide is completely useless for my Stihl branded chains since it’s a sharpening kit for Husqvarna X-Cut chains...

    Okay, I can definitely feel the bur with my nail, and some are pretty big, it was quite interesting to see the burr just grow in size and never actually fall off or come off the tooth leaving a fresh clean edge. I was able to go over the whole chain and I just lightly run the round file in the...

    Any advice on removing a burr from a Chainsaw chain? I can get a perfect burr to form across the entire tooth, on every tooth, but it won’t come off. It just grows in to a larger burr. I’m lost. I just to use a small flat file to remove the bur. Or Go over the whole tooth with a round file in...

    First chainsaw!

    Hey everyone, wanted to ask a question. I am gonna be installing a fairly large fence in my back yard after all of the tree clearing is completed. I’m gonna need an Auger to make some 2.0ft deep holes for the fence post. I saw the drill attachment for the Stihl 261 and I could essentially run my...

    I believe it! That must be the case if 50cc is ripping like this. 😎

    First chainsaw!

    That’s how I was doing with this 261. When I first got it and swapped to 32:1 mix, I kept tuning at it until it was perfect, But I did get it there, and I haven’t touched the needles since. Always two pulls. It will Pop with full choke on pull #1, and then it fires and runs on half choke pull...

    Just an update! Pulled and checked the spark plug out of curiosity. I believe this is perfect looking right? Little gray with tinniest brown tint.

    Thanks! It cuts so amazing. This saw has just come to life out of no where on me. This full chisel chain is also getting it done. Throws down massive wood chips! Since I am running 32:1 it feels like I can really ring its neck and not worry about it. 🙂

    Saw does 11.5K in the cut on this pine tree! It’s a real ripper! I think Pine cuts easy though. 🙃 ALSO, this is a video of me cutting. I learned how by watching YouTube videos lol. I have no real technique. It’s amazing how it acts completely different now, than when it was brand spank’n new...

    First chainsaw!

    Hey everyone, I ran the saw again today out of curiosity. No actual cutting was done, I was just curious to see if this would happen again. I wanted to see if it was dripping oil from the muffler, and to my surprise it was not! So from running the saw yesterday the excess black oil was just from...

    First chainsaw!

    So using MotoMix the saw already did not smoke whatsoever at all. The stuff just burns super clean. After swapping to my own 32:1 MotoMix+HP2, and running it the first time yesterday, it was smoking a little bit, pretty rich. The low speed was very rich at least. So rich it would die every time...

    First chainsaw!

    I was using a brand new chain and 20” bar. When I ran the saw yesterday, the chain was a brand full chisel one that I had just put on it night before. I was mostly cutting smaller pine trees, and a few dead trees that are still barely standing. I keep the chain fairly loose. Not too loose. But...
