    Weather was better today so I had to get a video. So I figured while I was creating some saw dust might as well get a video or two taken...

    Its a 440/460 Hybrid running a fresh chain on a 25" bar today...I was real happy on how she turned out.

    Did you build this one Mike? If I'm not mistaken that saw came from a co-worker of mine and he'd be tickled pink to see it run like that now.

    yeah would not want the 461 getting lonely,,,, it'd take a lot to make that happen though, I really like my 461 :)

    Maybe someday at a GTG or charity cut I will have the chance to run a hybrid, for now (the more I think about it) I think its best just the leave the 440 as a 440....

    Chvymn99 I wont muddy up your thread anymore, nice saw BTW!

    After you run a hybrid I am betting your disposition will change
