Chainsaw Pics...

34cc as well I believe. CS3450

 

33.4 cc according to Acres.

 

Do you regularly get that dense white ash?

 

Honey Locust leaves a white ash for me that looks like that, but I think of it as fluffy. It seems to break down to very little residue when I stir and shovel though.

 

Saw this on FB recently

 

The ashes do seem to be on the light side. Never had anything quite like what you have there. I guess I don't really pay much mind to the ashes besides clinkers which bother me. I don't know that I've ever had the stove loaded with nothing but. Just realized that I am always mixing species in the stove. lol And I have no explaination other than the rack always has a variety available.

 

Will never ever be fast saws but I can tell you that they will last decades. Mine are always eager to start but are a bit cold blooded like my old trimmer. I think they make a beautiful song with stock mufflers.

 

At least they have the chain tension right

 

Its definitely a great starting saw. I muffler modded mine and it made a noticable difference in throttle response and power. My cousin used these as his limbing saws when he had a tree service. He still has them and said the same thing you did. They alway start and run. Not fast but always do the job without issues.

 

That'll get your wrist strength up hanging out of a bucket to trim that limb WAY over there...

 

This does too. Pretty cool that it stays so (seemingly) solid and formed until disturbed. It’s not as light as walnut but reminds me of it.

Not an issue at all, just an observation. I have a big ol ash pan so I just push it down the slots and reload. After burning so much oak and black locust, this honey for sure produces more ash.

And since this is the chainsaw pics thread.


Small cc saws get little to no run time here. A ported 50 class saw is the minimum I use.

 

That's a good idea! I have never seen one before.

 

357 xp with full wrap

 

Mine would be the last saw to go.

 

Yep, they are great firewood getters.

 

If only two years I'd say you did good. Any sizzle on the ends? Consensus here is three or more years.

I've got a half cord CSS May of 22 that will go next year, plus anther cord cut last July that will sell Fall of 2026.

 

You pruning redwoods Jeff?

 

No sizzle here.

 

Fresh split face? You did good based on what I've seen here.
