Saw video thread

This little angry saw only has a muffler mod. It's got a lot of time on it cutting firewood this year.

Dang dude. Wasn't meaning any harm.
I watched his vids. He cuts like he's been watching jms vids. You know..hold the tip of the bar over the log for 5 seconds at 1/4 throttle (like you're scared of what's about to happen), nut it as you lay it on the log, and then slide the saw forward to the dogs like it's the .050" rakers that are pulling it in. Yet the saw still climbs to 12k rpm in the cut.

Must be "maxed out".

Just needs a couple of points of reference, at strange and obscure angles, that no one else can see to stare at for the Full Monte. Lol

Throwing chain like a pro.

It was running real good too. What causes that?

I think the chain caught the wood at an angle when it fell. Had to de bur a few drive links.

Glad that you and the chain are OK. [emoji106]

Lol I got a pair in the shop. Maybe I should start wearing them.

Smartest thing you've ever said. Ears and legs are a minimum to me, I live in chaps and a helmet.

I hear ya buddy. No reason not to wear them.

At least your saw had a chain catcher, I won't use or sell a saw without one. Incredibly important to have one. Thrown chains happen.

Yep definitely not the first time, and won’t be the last. Prone to it running bigger sprockets.

Cookie caught it on the way down more than likely. I've thrown dozens testing in 8x8. Never more than a scratch.

TROOF and as I been told its cheaper than copay

Thats a biggie!

Yeah. It sucked. Thrown a ton of 91-110. That's my most common size. Always climbing in brush or when it comes out of a cut and the top catches something

Got all three out today just to make A mess

461 with 24”/661 with 28”/241 with 16” in that order. I was trying to bury the bars but everything of any size has been bucked and split for firewood. I won’t be getting any new logs/trees in till I sell some of the stuff I’ve processed. It’s just getting cold so maybe it will pick up. Nothing special just had a day off and wanted to use my saws.

As good as they all are the 241 still amazes me. I get big saws and big ported saws are supposed to powerful, it’s just silly when a little guy will eat anything the bar can handle and keep spinning so fast. Fizgig, lol.

Did anyone notice how the chain brushed the back of his leg? Most styles of chaps don't generally cover that area. I know mine don't. I need to get some of those full coverage pants.
