A saw like this in its "never been offered to the public before form"

Who would of thought a ms170 running g a rim drive and 18" bar and a chisel chain would cut that well. Maybe were doing it wrong and he is onto something. We should throw out 440/460 and 660s out and just run chisel chain on ms170-250s they cut old growth so well. Look at his pics.

Or like this.

 

Does he have a video of himself getting hurt? Hes got some pretty bad/dangerous chainsaw usage going on there

 

Guys, just had an idea and I don't think it's been mentioned here before. It would be really cool if you guys could donate/plant a few trees down that way. Maybe some park that has been ravaged by the EAB. Just a thought,but it would be nice if a group like ours could make a move towards more trees in the world, give wood cutters a better name. Might even get some publicity.

 

Thats the problem with the uneducated public. None of them realize there is 10s of thousands more forested acres today than there was 150 years ago.

We really dont need more trees. I'm not saying cut every tree or never replant or that CITIES dont need more trees. But the USis far from lacking trees .

Most probably dont see them since like 75% of our population lives like within 25miles of a city.

 

Total agreeance. We are not lacking on trees, but the public has difficulty understanding that we are managing the wooded areas, not decimating them. I think it would still be good for us, even if its just symbolic.

 

Perception is reality and if the public feels that way then where is the harm in doing something that could help change some of those opinions. Doing something is always better than doing nothing...

 

I dont worry. I clear cut plenty of acres but 4-6x as many trees are planted in their place.

 

You guys could come plant some trees at my house if you want!!

 

Yea come to my house and plant some walnut trees so that in 29 years I can post for someone to come pay me to cut my trees out of my yard but they must have insurance and take the stamps with them .

Anybody follow the funny CL post threads???

 

Yeah...some of those post are great!

FREE WOOD...I have a 200 year old Oak tree hanging halfway off the side of a cliff with the other half directly over my house. Come cut it down, clean up and haul away the wood for free!

 

I would say Yea drop by even of it was a few hours.
