Another chainsaw dyno...

You might have liked the 6100 better if it had an oiler in it.

Mayhaps he traded you a 361? Sans oiler from the factory.

Only ever owned 1 creamsicle and it was an 039.

Any shade of orange will do for me
also creamsicles are ok

I got the 6100 and made 2 cuts with it and didn’t like how it felt in my hands. If something was wrong with it when I traded it to you I didn’t know it but I’ll make it right. I don’t deal dishonestly. Sorry.

All is good, I did same as you and had it for a good while. If I had any issue I would’ve told ya. Had a good chuckle though.
I did find it’s a pain in the asss to get parts for them locally.

I was commenting on the oiler Stihl let leave the factory on a 361 Mark, not your saw trading and buying/selling chops. Sorry to muddy the water.

Maybe @crowslayer17 should send that 6100 in for a run and see how she does...

Did the crackle at idle bring back memories?

That was a cool saw. Not sure why I ever traded it.

It did. Loud little thing lol

Yep, that saw is earplugs plus muffs.

Yep.

The 2065 has the closed port cylinder on it also

What I am finding fascinating and mind boggling at the same time is how dyno power and in-the-wood power don’t fully correlate.

I wonder if it’s peak TQ at rpm for chain speed that makes the difference, has to be.

You're not alone, im guessing the gearing effect and b&c combo will determine final drive. Like BHP vs WHP?

Similar to most other forms of motorsports. One extreme was the illustration of NightRogue a few weeks ago talking about how the big old Echo is his machine of choice for huge hard wood. It's a slow turner that doesn't generate the top HP as lots of many new bigger units, but the production is far greater due to factors like the ability for the chain to actually dig into the wood and pull a chip, whereas (hypothesis) a fast turning 660, etc. will make more hp, but can't pull a big chip at a velocity that the wood and chain can support (slow).

In many cases, a change in gearing (different sprocket size) can optimize the chain speed (or wheel speed) to allow the chips to pull accordingly will allow the horsepower to get the work done. In other cases that's not a practical option.

Now the actual power band of the engine potentially gives a better usability as the saw won't fall on its face if you hit a hard spot or if you stick a chain.

So many variables. It's cool to study.

Cfb 880 vs ported 3120 both woods port type builds



Shorter pull window on the 3120, but you can still get a good idea what the curve looks like.
