Saw video thread

[chipper1]

@Red97 and @huskihl echo hybrid collab. Chain was a lil aggressive but it didn’t mind it much.

Looks/ sounds great Cole.
You still haven't gotten that pile of wood cut down yet lol.

 

[chipper1]

Eh. Good enough for who it's for. Nice firewood saw without much investment. I want to see what more ignition advance does. Currently it leaks bar oil and is hard to start so ideally I'll correct those issues before I proceed with chasing performance. White oak came down up the road a month or so ago and my son wanted to help clear it out of the way. He asked if I had anything ready to cut at the lake. I told him take the 359. He said "man that mfer took a minute to start but once it did holy *s-word!" Meh, I need to get him to another GTG.

Ran one of my 359s the other day.
Swapped a 362 muffler cover out for a buddy here local and ran it in the same wood, that and the 2260.
All nice saws, but the ported 359 outran them, and that was with a 325 chain, probably quicker with 3/8, especially if it was square.

Here's the before and after swapping the muffler cover and a reset, nice bit of power, but sure got loud.

And the 2260, you know which I'd pick out of these two lol.
Edit; to be fair the 362 was running a semi-chisel and the 2260 a full chisel. Both hand filed by me.

It would drive me nuts to run saws that were that slow. Was the chain on backwards haha. Just kidding great job Brett

What's up buddy.
I'd rather run a ported 70cc saw myself.
But these beat a 50 lol.
Edit, stock 7910 in the same piece of wood, because why not .

Here it is in a black locust log.

 

[chipper1]

Ported 7900 in the same wood with the same chain.
I did take a few thousandths off the rakers, at least a couple more than what it liked in the Locust. Sure an 8 pin would take care of that inconsistency in the cut no problem, but it's dine for green wood or wood not quite as hard.
Maybe I need to find some Michigan fastwood to cut lol.

Farmer Chuck 660 fresh out of the pimp shop decided he wanted to hit the gym.

Farmer Chuck laid down so much heat at the gym he worked up one hell on an appetite. Decided to stop by the buffet for some authentic home cooking. His favorite, Lo Mein.

For comparison the stock Cross Performance jug with obligatory muffler mod. Same bar and chain, same wood, same weather. Farmer Chuck was the next saw to hit it.

Happy New Year!

Conclusion? I did not time the cuts.

The HL Supply website features my 066 with a Cross P+C.

33%. 37 vs. 25 by my math. YMMV! Don't get me wrong the Cross is a great running saw as I have stated. I have no idea how a stock OEM 660 runs but the videos I have seen make it look pedestrian and a bit unimpressive for the weight.

That saw has some torque. Looks like you are giving that piece of wood a workout.

Yes it’s a torquey one. I actually build a 257/62 yesterday with a little speedier numbers. I need to get another 357 carb for it though. It’s a pain to swap shafts and all for the hd199 carb to fit them

 

[Slumberjack]

Husky 257/62 little different numbers. I’m trying
