Long day, solo, killing oaks. Smashed down two sticks I stripped about threeish, chipping, tested three saws, one fresh ported, my 6401 got a lw 24 Total super and the 034 got worked good running a 325 lw tsu 18".
Happy with them all but the 6401 was boiling gas. Pump gas really is chit. Filled it with boat gas and no more issues. That saws needs a fresh ported jug. Like a 79xx or 73xx. Its sister is wearing a 84xx bb and a 28" Total. That needs to come out next with a bigger carb. Damn thing goes lean on long cuts tuned fat. Todays stock 6401 felt weak with a good chain. Screens are in... bone dry here.
My black pu truck is greenish yellow now. Flooded ditches and ponds are coated heavy. Hell... our house and grey roof are yellow. Solar panels are coated everywhere.
Past the yellow fog here for a few weeks.
Now its all the stuff that blooms white.
Thats worse for me and the wife than the pines and oaks.

That one works great! It has a clutch so you dont have to keep stopping and starting it if you need to move something.
We have a Swisher direct drive at our house. It seems to have more grunt. Good for knocking down weeds and keeping the wild Muscadine vines at bay.
Good evening Brent hope your weekend is going well buddy

.025” now last chain was .040”
Yeah, .040" is a little aggressive.:p
I had an 18" bar and a "safety" chain that came with my PM700.
I made it an "unsafety" chain.
Cut off all of the safety bumpers and cut the depth guages down to around .040"-ish.(maybe a wee bit more)
It would chunk pine chips that looked like Chicklets.
It was NOT good for cutting with the top of the bar.:eek:
