Solo and Dolmar videos

I got to square up the log here after lunch/supper whatever it is and I'll get some runs and testing done.

 

Here's a couple.

 

Boy Mike, you've really put together a lethal formula on that 79er.

 

It seems to be strong for small wood. I did swap to an 8 pin for this today. The chips hitting my leg were starting to sting. Might have to actually put on chaps for testing it.

 

well, rumor has it you know your way around a chain too. badazz saw/badazz chain.... might as well be standing over a yellow jackets nest cause your legs are gonna get eaten up.

 

I was gonna mention his chains. I bought a bar and chain combo from him a while back and was amazed at how it pulled itself through wood. I think it was a 32" combo on my masterminded 372

 

That was a decent file job. There's a lot more in the chain for softer wood than this 3 year old cherry. There may be more in the saw too but I think I'm going to leave it as is for now.

 

A good chain should feel like the wood is melting out from under it...
Mike files some real dandy's...
I can't wait to put that 79er up against the 064 and 9010...

 

Yes sir....I sure wish I could do it

 

Chain is the most important part of a chainsaw setup. All the power in the world won't make it cut faster if the chain isn't sharp and set up well for the wood you're cutting.

 

But when it does

 

Mike I have a 7900 round here that could use whatever you did to the one in the video. Wanna tell, or wanna do up the one I have?

 

I'll tell you how to do it. I want to see it run against other ones to see if it's worth doing or if you should use the stock piston. I have an idea how to make more compression and keep the exhaust where I want but I'm not set up yet to do it.

 

I figure we'll know shortly, if that recipe is worth writing down...
I do love the "less is more" approach for sure...

 

So do I hedge!
