What's on your bench?

Bought this recently for my grandfather. What size bar and chain do you recommend?

How big is the wood he is cutting? I like a 20" on my 70cc saws and have a 24" if needed. Any bigger and I grab a bigger saw.

20" cuts 90%of everything

I like 24’s. 20” is kind of short for my height.

20” should be good but he doesn’t like bending down to cut things. One day I’ll be the same way

24" Light bar then should work very well for him!

Best deal going right there!

I raffed.



Dallas finally sent it...nice. I'm excited to see what kind of power you can find.

I've had it for a month. Just too much going on with work, fun, and other saws to get to it til now.

I'm curious too. Most of the port work is done. Probably run it tomorrow and see

why has US such a delay for the 500i?

That’s a good question. I’m also wondering if they’ve made a wrap handle for it yet?

Looks like lots of lawn boys will be on my bench now.

Unless you have to scrounge. Seems people don't want to mess with the big stuff, in which case the long bar is nice to have. Most of my hauls lately have been massive.
42".

I keep up to a 32" in my arsenal also Jason, just don't get to use it very often but it is nice to have it just in case. I have a big oak testing log right now that a 36" won't cut thru, but that's a rare duck here anymore. Hard to find big wood here Anymore.

And so it begins again, just picked up this old Stihl Contra Lightning, apparently it runs, but i will go through it before i run it, visually on the outside it looks ok, so fingers crossed internals are good.

Thats what i wanted to see.
Not bad for a 60yr old saw.

 

[MustangMike]

Although I use my 36" bars mostly for milling, they also come in handy when I have to deal with the occasional large Oak, Tulip, or Maple. Some of them will actually exceed the reach of the 36" bars.

For preparing logs for milling, it is a lot nicer to just cut through with one cut and have flat ends to work with.

For those of you who haven’t been inside one of these here’s a couple of pictures to help show scale. That’s a MS200t cylinder next to it

On the bench for a little performance work. Belongs to Michael Duffy. He saw August ‘s and had to have one. Just a tank or two thru it.
Factory fit/finish and machining is impeccable BTW.
