I love this clip 100th time I watched it, really makes me wanna get out there behind the wheel of one, so badly!!! Like I'd cut off my left hand too race just a few more races before the final one!! Lol
If I could go back in time it would be too the early days of short track racing, and hey even too been in the crowd them days would been the best show I bet!!!!
Thank God for the good old boys who brought circle track racing into existance , its sooooo awesome!!! Id love too have raced against them boys they were very good drivers/wheelmen, i bet the most challenging ones ever too be in competition with, they would drive the wheels off 😊

Short track is the best and even tho they going slower,the size of the track being smaller actually makes it look and i bet racing ones seems and feels very fast !!! Gotta love it!!

Say that again within 15 spoons of me
500i ?
To be honest I don’t remember I do have a 500i and I love it it’s been a power house of a saw I usually run a 28 or 32 on it
Shes a beauty 😍
Do you have a honeymoon to the chipper? That sounds like you guys are having fun hopefully it doesn’t get plugged up as Vermeir.
Still wash it about once a week ha! And it’s been really good I think we had one clog but was our fault trued chipping palm trunk probably not the wisest decision
Lumber!
Great video man, keep kicking ass and staying safe. 🤙🏻💪🏻🌳
Very good review I got some as well and for the price my expectations were high but I got disappointed
Is this a pass/fail test? Does the teacher goback to inspect which bed you were measuring with what spoon
I should ask what if it’s more of a ladle 🧐
😂😂😂
THe awesome Dar! Good background music😊
Talent through education and careful practice. Great job!
A multi-talented professional
I am very proud of you Mike, and I'm looking forward to future adventures with you! Semper Fi my tree brother!
Thanks for planting the seed. See ya soon dude👍
All started with a stihl 193 and a borrowed trailer. Congratulations on how you have grown your business. GOD BLESS
How do y’all like that sd50? I’m looking to add one to our company due to its size and speed. Any issues? Any input would greatly be appreciated! Thanks!
Bruh had matches n lit his lighter😂I’m weak😂
You are not suppose to use it with your left hand. Just because you can use it with one hand doesn’t mean you should. Instead of holding on the tree with one hand, trust your gear. Use your positioning lanyard and trust it. That safety button was the best thing that saw has for a safety feature.
Save some women for the rest of us. Lol
🤣😂🤣 what men men do when the heat index is 110!

I have the same grinder, I've had it for a couple of years now and have put almost 400 hours on it. How are you liking it? What mechanical or other issues have you had with it?
It’s been pretty good to me so far a couple O rings , (5min fix) and I had the bearings go out but I’m thinking that was from what we grind, palms seem to love getting all caught up in the lower bearings. Good teeth and let er eat! I’ve been really happy with it so far
@@michaelbouwer4285 How long did it take to replace the bearings? What did the parts cost? I'm guessing you changed the shaft as well? My bearing are still original but the upper sprocket that drives the cutter wheel belt wore out at around 300 hours. That was $450. Rayco also shipped the machine with defective swing cylinders. That cost me a grand. 🤑🤮
@@ngbbane9097 they went out really early I think it was around 70 hrs but when I got them apart they had so much palm fiber wrapped in it I figure that was the problem since then learned to grind palms way different ha and I think parts were 900 ish and I did the labor myself it took probably half a day. Definitely need a puller though to get a few things off but wasn’t to terrible a job
You did a great job!
Thank you ! We always try our best to do a professional job.
I have the 161T for about 3 years, I have used and abused it beyond manufacturers recomendation so far this little saw never failed, it comes with 25cm bar and I change to 30cm, normaly I used with one AP200 battery even I have all batteries from AP200 to AP500S but to me feels better balanced with AP200.
Which do you think feels better the 10 or 12 inch bar? Do you notice much difference?
@@jonathangreally1034 I keep the 10" the saw comes with and a new chain as a back up. I change for the 12" bar the saw feels better balanced and it performs the same, I just use the 12". My brother buy one 161T after me witch same as mine comes with a 10" bar, he already change it for the 12" to. In our case both saws come standard with 10" bars.
@@sirvozelo1 thanks your info. At my Stihl dealer you can choose which bar it comes with, it’s just very fractionally more with 30cm more but if you think it feels better balance and performance is same I kind of leaning to 30cm bar. Also wondering if it might be same chain as on the Hta86? And on the pole pruner attachment that run the smaller 1/4”P and have 30cm bar.
You can be sure it have no problem, the gauge size in mine is same the 25cm and the 30cm. With 30cm it feels better balanced and easier to work with machine. I have also the MSA 220C and the MSA300. The 220C, mine comes with a 40cm Rollomatic bar and I change to 35cm Light 04 it performs better, the MSA300 comes with a 40cm Light 04 and I change to 45cm Light 04 witch feels better to. On the 220C I have to change the sprocket because the chain gauge change, on the MSA300 no because is the same size gauge. Hope I can still read my 161T bar information because I have used it heavily but I will try. Isn't possible here or I with send you a picture of mine. If you not understand something let me know.
@@jonathangreally1034 Here is the bar information from mine 161T. STihl Rollomatic E MINI, 3Ocm / 12" - 1.1mm / 0.043" Made in USA
Hope the kitty got down safely😅
You wear a harness! I have nine lives!
I've been waiting for the the 3rd video! It was a job i'll never forget, and most important is the time i spent with my tree brothers. Looking forward to more adventures next winter! P.S. Cough cough......To hell with that Red Tide!!
So much fun! Definitely one to remember and can’t wait do some more island work 💪 and maybe little less red tide hopefully
Good times brother, I had a blast out there with you all.
At 13:01... that's amazing how you got that to turn and come down without touching any palm trees. You must have the best ground crew ever. Well done groundies. Watch out Felipe
Dangerous profession😱this job a nail biter.
That's what they called me in the 80s
I received them as winner on a holiday give away from Sherrilltree. love the light set up but i also am getting blisters from these $830 dollar spurs. I am looking to modify the padding for better results. if you got any suggestions please share. thanks
I wish I had some good ideas but I have not had any luck. I pretty much just wear my trusty buckinghams with the big buck pads still. I will wear the carbon if I’m only going to be in them for less than a hour. If you find something out to Id love to know more want to like them so bad but they just keep disappointing me ha!
@Michael Bouwer i seen a video and have been talking to a guy about modifying them with the Eldredge pads. there is a video where he compares 3 different spurs and said that he modified the carbon gecko pads withe the Eldredge ones. im just waiting on the info.
@@michaelbouwer4285 video is on strider tree's gaffs comparison
How do you like that SD50?
Honestly been awesome for us. Doesn’t leave any ruts in yards, fuel efficient , fits pretty much most places we need. Height like 55 feet you can reach. which where we are located most are trees are wider than they are tall Ha . It’s been a huge improvement for sure
😂
