PAST Upstate NY GTG 16'

[SawTroll]

So was the mystery saw that Bob brought revealed? Apologies if that was already discussed somewhere in the 61 pages of this thread

He "revealed" at least the Husky 465 Rancher (there is a video on another site/forum).

It is a saw that obviously is designated to "steal" MS 311/391 costumers, and it is a wonder (for Stihl) that they didn't do it a long time ago.

Did it meet expectations?

They cut with it all day.

As previously mentioned, it cut more wood than any other saw there.

You were too busy making out with that big Echo to try it weren't you?

Yes it is.
I used a mini zip wheel on my Dremel w/flex shaft for 95% of the work.

I will say....before anybody decides to give this a try, you better have a steady hand, patience and commitment.
I know I have at least 12hrs in chassis work on this 16" loop.

Holy crap, 12 hrs, Good thing you didn't find a piece of steel
in a log like i did. I almost cried when i looked at my 1/2" full
chisel freshly sharpened chain.

Sì.

Actually it was pretty damn shiny!

Not as shiny as Lee's polished up Macs. Those things will blind you if you're not careful.

Bob seemed pleased with it.

We have a Fisher metal detector dad bought when we were WoodMizering regularly.

If I had the awesome saws you have, ( and knowing my luck, I'm magnetic when it comes to buried metal in trees), I believe I'd have to use that detector before starting any one of those sweet rides.

Did you run the 9010 with the decompression valve?

Yes, I ran Dolkivarna 8-10 cuts. 4 with full comp chain, and 4 with full skip chain. I think I like the skip chain better.

You should have taken it for a spin... it's a hard pulling saw!

 

[Hinerman]

Discuss.....

Looks like he is "bustin' a move" or getting ready to "rip one". So which one is it, or is it neither? I suck at "what tree is this" also...

the answer is always... "the one that's going to heat the house or shop this winter!" right?

Breaks your heart huh...

Last year I think I made 2 or 3 cuts with one saw.

I have something here that is yours. Should I mail it back to you?

Um...
As long as it isn't time sensitive hold on for now, I may order some more mouse piss and files; make the shipment worth while...

Don't think Ben or Jerry would survive the trip too well.

That mouse piss is addicting.
