Many of my videos are for guys who are interested or buying a saw I'm selling, I ask what they'd like to see it running.
If anyone else likes them is of little importance.
I still try to produce consistent cuts and keep the saw in the power band as you do. I also like to use wood that the bar reaches thru, so the cookie actually falls, sometimes I'll cut one side of the log off so the bar will reach all the way thru. I've always thought it funny when guys hold the bar up to the log, I'll know when you make the cut if it went all the way thru or no, you know who you guys are
