3120 milling saw. WG6 carb with H side adjustment screw added and a 272xp coil. Had the crank repaired by @LBracing This is an older 3120 that needed the flywheel located differently on the crank for the 272 coil. Lots of work put into this one. It should be good to go for a long time.

Looks good Mike. Glad the carb worked out

Is it mainly just the bigger handle spacing giving more leverage that makes the 3120 & 880 so easy to stuff? A guy I know talked highly of his stock 880 with 30" .404 full skip, 7t. I could stuff it quite easily.

The other day I was wishing for more leverage with the 42” and 404 in very hard wood. I think the longer bars require more leverage to get the tip down through the wood. In my case it turned out that pine I cut previously had dulled the chain more that I thought. I also turned the oval shaped log upright so I was cutting across the narrow vs. the wide cross section. After that it was like, ”wow, I love this 3120”. First time I felt like I was cutting that stuff with any authority. Unfortunately I messed up and didn’t record the good cut. :rolleyes:

I don’t really think they are easily stuffed. In my video that was my fault. I was down to my last couple inches on that chunk and I was trying to avoid cutting out. Near the end of the first cut I was prying and leaning on that saw hard and it just lugged down and kept pulling.

Sharp .404 chain, skip, and 3” long points on the dawgs

I find myself wanting dawgs in between the “west coast” and “east coast” size for here cutting hardwood. West coast ones grab constantly too much and east coast ones are usually a little too small for the root flare on 30” and up trees. Something the size of 661 or 395 stock dawgs are perfect imo. They are large but don’t have a hook on the bottom tooth that stalls the saw in hardwood.

“Stuff”- you mean stall the clutch or get the chain stuck with chips between it and the bar? It would seem if one only has to lift the saw to get the chain going again, it might have just stalled the clutch...but if one has to pull it out of the wood and blip it, there are chips in the rails...or at least that is my experience. But I don’t have as many experiences as most of you :)

Nah your right, I agree.

So 395 dogs on 3120? Have a plasma table...I'll look at them when I get a min.
