    Took the masterminded 562 on it's maiden voyage. This thing is an absolute monster.

    Should these rpms be this high or do I need to drop my rakers more ? They are already below the oregon guide. It's a freshly filed 20 inch lgx.

    Video comin later tonight.

    They are uploading to youtube as we speak. I converted them to HD so they are taking a little longer to upload.

    Concretegrazer I let my buddy run the saw for these pics. I held the tach and took the picture. I'm the goofy one running it in the videos.

    Well the video isn't the best and neither is my technique, but at least you get to see the saw run. I took a few strokes off of the rakers AFTER I shot this video and it cuts even better. It holds a consistent 12.8-13k rpm in the cut. Its a 12" white oak.

    I'm a fan. I ran my stock 550 xp after this and it felt pretty puny.
