15 pound maul!! Wow you a tough woman. A fiskars x27 will work wonders for almost anyone's hand splitting game.
Those are tough old saws, amazing how many xl12 and super XL"s are still cutting wood. A 24 inch bar on a homelite XL is probably too much bar.
Ya I think any type of pine, once they got a bunch of woodpecker holes you can count on the bottom of the tree being rotten enough to make falling...
I find pine to be at its best when it's standing dead, and with little or no bark left on it.
I call BS! Unless it was all off the ground in a sawbuck, and he washed every log with a pressure washer. Or meebe if it was all de-barked. Sounds...
Minimum wage? Was this old style logging (ie) chainsaws and choker setting? Or mechanized timbco's and processer's? Either way that's insane that...
The term "facecord" is totally unheard of here where I live. It's all half or full cords. Since most of the wood for sale is pine or Douglas fir...
Check the condition of the anti-,vibe. I'm pretty sure they are rubber not spring. My first 056 vibrated so bad that the starter would literally...
I have had a couple 056 stihls over the years. I can't remember if the super or the magnum is the biggest cc"s. I think the magnum is 94cc. These...
Nice saw. I used to have a 3400, I really like the old poulans. I think most of the 4200 and larger size green meanies have been snapped up by...
When this happens to me I put the chain back on the saw with alot of slack in the adjustment. Then start the saw and at low rpm run the chain...
Get a cab guard, they make a huge variety these days. Or if your a fabricator build one. Any pickup that hauls firewood needs one IMHO. Half ton...
Buy it. If nothing else a clean, good running Stihl 660 seems to hold a good resale value.
The holzforma g660 that my friend has been cutting with is doing alright. He cut 2 more cords with it this weekend. The oiler seems like any...
A little winter Douglas fir action today. [ATTACH]
Tell her that if you can't play with your toy immediately you will return to the dealer and come back with a ms661!
Some of the chain sharpening videos are annoying also. I like hotsaws 101, and buckin Billy Ray. I love the sound of the old maccollochs.
I know a guy who builds fence who has abused the #@$& out of a couple 180 stihls, he cuts small diameter juniper and pine for posts and stays for...
I have witnessed this "holzforma G660" cut about 4 cords of Doug fir and larch. It belongs to a friend of mine. It starts and cuts wood, but the...
That's some pretty wood. I have never seen red elm before.
