sycamore is a hardwood. A quick google will tell you what actually makes a species hardwoord or a softwood

I have a nice axe collection. Mostly vintage American...but I do have a mint 4.5# Hytest Craftsman with factory bevel and 95% green paint intact with a spotted gum handle. As well as a 4.5# Kelly Dandenong made in England. I've always liked the look of those Brades blades...but just haven't found the right one!

Nice one

Nice looking axe and it cuts well, I dont think my wife would take to kindly to me having an axe collection as well! Sycamore is a hard wood but easy to split. I think it burn ok as well looking forward to some more regular videos.

Lovely axe collection u got in your shed... 🪓 I am looking for felling axe for my forestry belt scabbard, i just ordered not while ago from westcoast saw usa, just not sure what size will be best? 🤔

👍🆙JW, A little cooler here today, 🌞@80°F 🌛@60°F. Have a good weekend!

Are the stihl rs chains easy to sharpen as I've got .325 1.3mm chain on my 261c-m

Saya memiliki chain saw husqvarna 365 sp 2 unit Tetapi rusak bagian rumah bearing goyang, Bagaimana bapak cara memperbaikinya

Good on ya Brother ! back making chips !

266 seemed quicker, but with a shorter bar. I'm wanting for my 266 to get back from being ported by randy in tn. Ought to be a ripper. Only saw I've ever sold that i regret is my jonsered 2166. Essentially a 365 special. That was a fantastic saw

Hey James, nice to see you back at the wood pile 👍👍

👍🆙JW

The man, the myth, the legend

Top man. Great to see you back in action.

Glad to see you cutting again. I should have all my winter wood done by the end of the week. I have built a new shed that can hold 5m3. Saws really are addictive enjoy.

I did watched nervous when u using your chainsaw with no PPE, with shorts... LOL I own 266SG heated handle version, i cannot find it online wiring diagram, i need to rewire properly... 😔 I did rebuild carb, new fuel line, it runs lovely now, but in short future will need to replace crank seals, its got air leak on one side...

These old school Husqvarna chainsaws are virtually impossible to get here in Australia,and if you’re lucky enough to find one in good condition you will pay top dollar for it 🙋‍♂️one of your subscribers.

Glad to see you back. Just picked up a very clean 266xp on fleabay for £60! Cylinder will clean up but I've also got a brand new oem piston and cylinder to match. So it'll get the new and be a keeper for life 😂 Got a cheap as new 242xp the other day really cheap also👍😛

I bought back my father Stihl 044 back that he sold to a friend 20 years ago. For $250 USD so he could buy his MS440. I just was able to buy back the 044 for the same price plus he threw in a 25" bar with it. It runs beautifully and still has machining marks for the factory of the piston. She is a good ripping saw. Love the 044 best saw ever made. Oh forgot to say it is a 044 arctic model

Where do you get a pipe like that for it

It is a B77 model with L77 clutch cover. Dates around 1970

Interesting stuff... Have you ever come across odd porting ❓

Great to see your still alive! Hopefully you can wrench on some saws.

I just scored a lovely 625 Jonsered with a 20 inch bar for 180GBP. Runs a charm. Plenty of power for cutting all the string ash arrive the farm.

We have tress that need felling…….we need more wood too - I’ll give you a shout

Are you touching the exhaust to determine whether the engine is running? Did the loud noise and blue smoke not give the game away? Why all the revving? Let her rip!! Doesn't say in the manual to play the throttle.

Just picked one up for 100 bucks . Has strong compression. Needs carb cleaned I suspect. I put little fuel in the cylinder. She fired up on the 4th pull.

You could have taken it all down with that length of a blade from the other side you're an idiot now you just made it harder on yourself to cut it all up it's easier when it's up in the air to cut it

I bet you paid for the sink anyway

Been debating between the 572xp, 500i and ms462c for firewood. Currently have a 272xp but want to switch to stihl for dealer support. Husqvarna dealers are disappearing all around me. Is 500i worth the premium?

She’s a beast! 🤙

Hey M8, bad luck there, good to see you are mending well. Too wet here in NZ for much saw work, I do most of my saw work in Spring, soon as the ground gets hard enough to drive on 🤘

Welcome back James . Keep battling mate , sorry to hear it’s been so tough . Times a great healer , think how good you’ll be in a months time . Since you ask I’ve picked up an 80 cc Makita , very similar to yours , grey top . And the last few days a Homelite 750 - 112cc of goodness ! It needs work but it a long term project , came with a load of spares which I may well need to get her running . Good to see you back 👍

Hey buddy. Sorry to hear about the crash. That's rough. I know what you mean about being injured and self employed. I told you about my accident which to honest I'm still living in the shadow of. I hope you get back to 100% soon and work is alright. I've used an ms400 at work a few times and would rather pick up a 261 with a good muffler mod to be honest. I wasn't blown away.

Glad to see you are ok now

Did your bike survive? I hope the Ambulance crew was nice to you. I now have a Jonsered trio: the 2165, the one I had of you, and a 2156 and 2152. The 2156 has had little use, and it has a muffler mod. I am glad you are back making videos, and hopefully, work is not too painful.

Sorry to hear that old boy. I've been riding 27yrs now, only 1 accident to date in Aug 2000. Still got nerve damage etc that's never recovered even after operations tidying things up. Broken bones would've been easier 😂, got used to it now so not a big deal. I'm self employed so know exactly how it is. Nothing is ever going to stop me riding tho! I've thought differently about things after ramdonly getting DVT and Pulmonary embolisms last yr. On blood thinners now for life so have to be more careful with everything tbh. Got myself some torniquets and quick clot bandages should the worst happen whilst working especially as I work on my own and rarely have phone signal. Take care👍

Hi James . Where you been down on your back 😊. No problem I was watching George on u tube 😊

Hey James, sorry to hear about your bike wreck - glad you're back in the saw shop though 👍👍

👍🆙JW

He’s back 🤙🤙

You still with us? Can't see any updates or anything in community section. Guessing you're busy rebuilding the 262's in your massive new workshop? I do hope so🤔

I have a highway 268 popup in my 50mm g372xp. Started with 3 base gaskets, .022" squish. 155 exhaust duration, 160 intake. Took it back apart about a month ago, made base gaskets, set squish at .014". Now have 195 psi compression. Saw is much stronger than stock. The big bore kits, they increased the bore size without increasing the transfer port area. That's the reason the 50mm bore makes more hp than the 52 mm bore.

I haven't had any problems with 10%ethanol fuel in many years. Store it in a sealed container aka one with a valve. It also sits in my saws, trimmers,blower. The carb kits and fuel lines have been improved to deal with 10% ethanol for many years now. I think the purge bulbs still fail a little more often on my equipment that has them, but they are a dime a dozen. A lot cheaper than ethanol free gasoline. The standard pump gas gets turned over much more often than the ethanol free so it is much fresher also.

Nice man. I just picked up a 1983 181SE nice low hour unit with full wrap. Gonna go through it, new crank seals, carb kit, fuel hose and filter, etc. can’t wait to get it into some wood!

You can put clean water in and put your parts with cleaner in ziplock bags or jars with the lid on too. Especially if you are just doing small parts like carbs.
