Tree monkey's subscriber problem is just that most people now days have extremely short attention spans. (Think covid, epstein, the list goes on.) Tree monkey imparts actual knowledge in his videos, but you have to watch the whole video if you want to see/hear it. Most people are not willing...

About like my foray into gunsmithing. $1,000 to true up an action and rebarrel!? I'm not paying that again. I'll get a lathe and do it myself! The lathe was the cheap part, lol. The tooling is where they get you. I'm several custom rifles deep in tooling and equipment. But it's been fun...

I hear neighbors around me now and then, and you can hear their saws just screaming in the cut from dull chains. Makes me cringe.

Need somebody that's crafty with a 3D printer to make something like a maxflo for it. Maybe use the new style filters?

From what I gather watching his videos, the quad port is just a better more efficient design. More efficient burn, more power. Time for a velocity stack and exposed filter. I jacked the top cover up on my 462 so I chopped it and went to the wcs foam filter. It felt like it gained another...

Never owned one, bit just looking at the filter design, I can see what you're talking about.

Reason being ?

Interesting.

Out of three I've had, two 441's and an early production 462, none have given me a minutes trouble.

I consulted @tree monkey on this same topic. Working nights right now with little to do, so I've been binge watching his latest build series. I'll probably take his advice and go the 261 route. Unless. I did find a pretty clean 260 about an hour from me for what seems to be a reasonable price...

Husqvarna dealers (outside of Lowes and TSC) are just about nonexistent in my ao. I'd really like to try one, and the dealer thing isnt a deal breaker, but, it is nice to have local parts support. That's the saw that made me look at husqvarna. A guy gave me a 350 years ago. Said it had been...

I had completely forgotten about the echo offerings.

What's your favorite 50cc class of saw to build and why ? Which ones seem to consistently turn out stronger saws? What are some pro's and cons to the various 50cc saws you've built in the past ? Just curious as to the thoughts from the guys that have the most experience with them.

Same.
