You clearly missed the first part of the video I got chased off the mountain by lightning… another person bumping their gums without knowing what they are bumping their gums about should I write it in crayon for you next video? Don’t like it don’t watch… you obviously didn’t waste time if you took time to write a comment 🤣 all dramatic like a true drama queen 😘
@@mountainlifewithdavidkelsieyou talked but i was led to believe there would be some confrontation,,,,i didnt see any,,,,i guess in your world, talk is important,,,,
This chain squaking reminds me of when I was first working as hand faller,I had older saws that were a pain to keep running and I got guys telling me to quit wasting my money on junk and go buy a port work saw ,I did morethen my quota most days. I found out the only builder of saw worth any thing was one willing to come out and work a day with you to rpove his worth. So glad to see a young man and his father working together and being productive.
Yup only the best walk the walk! Aaron lynch is about the only one I see who can walk the walk! Just a good ol boy who builds a mean machine! Started from scratch with no big names or big money backing him just pure honest and hard work! That’s what a true American does ✊🏽🇺🇸 that man has my respect and I never even ran one of his saws
Thanks! Brother for telling like it is.. you make firewood cutting n hauling easy.. we haven't haul any yet. Prices go up with with every day as fall gets closer. Awesome video! Brother
I am who I am brother and believe in what’s right… it’s time real men start drawing a line in the dirt with all these fools who are making then men’s world look like shit… got male adults flaunting their junk infront of children saying it’s culture and bullshit… they are disgusting individuals imho
great to see a young fella who aint afraid to help his dad and not sit at home in front of the tele or playing games on his phone. Love the manual splitting 🙂l
I guess it was on a short that the idiot comments accusing me of stealing wood from loggers!!! Lmmfao yeah ok buddy let me get a good video of my license plate so I can get away with stealing hahah
Thankyou for this video on the drama. It sure takes all the fun out of chainsaws for me. All I ever wanted to do was learn what and how cutting my firewood could be done more productively and easier on an old man. No extra time left for drama.
Tin man, Red Beard, Gordy from West Coast Saws, Iron Horse all seem to make some great hop-ups or ported saws. John’s saws look to be some real rippers. Any one running nitro and turbos is interesting. Donny Walker. He’s one of the old school best -I think… One of my favorite saw builders is Hotsaws101 out of Nor Cal. Cuts a lot of Redwoods. Has different grinds for coast wood and inland wood. I should make videos about my wood cutting. Small trees in the high desert. Sand sand = dull chain dull chain
If guys were half as good as you they might stand a chance! I don’t mean your machining exactly I mean walking the walk not bumping their gums but showing what they can do just like you 👊🏽 I have 💯 respect for you my friend
I know nothing of stock or ported chainsaws yet so enjoy seeing a true man who teaches his children how to walk with pride in his world. Hats off to you David.
I completely Agree with you, shut up and learn how to cut. I have cut timber for fourt🎉h yrs with a stock saw and have always put just as much wood down as the ported saws. You need a sharp chain and other than that , if I ain't getting enough done it's probably not the saws fault! Love the videos!!
If it runs, cuts like it’s supposed to I’m good. Broke my back, had to put the saws down for a while but I’m back at it. These raw videos are inspiring. Shows the whole process and not just the cuts. Stay safe
No drama and stock saws, not a bad way to live if you ask me lol. I don't have a problem with ported saws but a guy could save a lot more time cutting if he just learned sharpen his saw
For as much as you are in the mountains, I’m surprised you haven’t seen a BF. But it’s the same for the guys who worked all theirs lives in the mountains in Hoopa (CA). Many of them “say” they haven’t seen one. But they become pretty uncomfortable when talking about them. And seem to rather change the subject. Others get real uncomfortable when talking about little people! To me both are demonic demon types that need to be handled via the Lord Jesus Christ! Take care David!
@@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie cool. I'm 52 and have always gone straight thru. Just started to leave a little uncut on top when the log would pinch , to prevent it. But I only cut 5-6 cord/yr between myself and Mom's. I think you by far do a much better job of explaining everything than any others I watch. Thnx again
I’ve cut timber off and on the last five years and firewood since I was 8 years old but nothing beats a stock saw for reliability and longevity… keep a sharp chain and accurate cuts and it’s easy to keep up with a Ported saw… the saw is only as good as the operator anyhow lol I watch a lot of guys who spend money on ported stuff and still cut like dog shit
Good teamwork. I almost bought my first Husky a 592 at the NY State Woodsman’s show but I waited too long and he sold out. Thinking about getting the Makita 7900 ported. I’ve spent way to much $$ on tires recently.
The Mazda Rotary world has the same issue at times. I have been there, done that, and no one wants to listen, so i just stay out of it and keep doing my own thing. I do watch the arguments, and some of them are just pure comedy to me at this point. I will be helping my Dad next month with a little firewood so that will be fun. I haven't done that with him in years as he only burns a little in the stove just to have a a dancing flame..
Awesome! Yeah it’s funny to see guys who don’t know their 🫏 from a hole in the ground talk about saws… smh 🤦🏻♂️ the idiot is strong in those ones haha 😂
Brantley is definitely a “Firewood Beast in the making”. By the way it looks he’s gonna be busting your chops about in the not to distant future David. 😊
DAVID, is that dry Fir a lot easier to split than the green stuff? Judging by the ease of the way that you’re tossing it around and comparing it to the stuff that I’m familiar with it looks like it would be, but I want YOUR opinion.
Love your channel,used to cut my own firewood for my home,loved the fresh air and being in nature. 10 years ago go diagnosed with muscular dystrophy so have not cut wood since,get a wood cutter to get my wood now.
Man I am sorry to hear this! I hope we can help fill that spot of firewood for you somewhat… I know the feeling of not being able to do what you do. Thanks for the support my friend we love and appreciate you
Love your stuff brother. I take care of a ranch in NM, and cut a little firewood on the side. Love your attitude about life and people that don't know what the hell there talking about. Right now i have the 572 xp with a 24" on it. Love it, but am thinking of putting a 32" just to try it out. Do you think it will have enough power? I cut wood between 6400 and 8000 ft right now.
It will pull it just fine! But if you think it’s too much try a 28” I run both 28” and 32” I love 28” when I am just dropping timber but if I have to do a lot of bucking I will take a 32” so I don’t have to bend over as far when limbing and bucking… thanks for the support my friend we love and appreciate you
I know everyone your talking about without mentioning any names and the arrogant guy you mentioned you have met and I'm pretty sure I know where you met him! All the chainsaw drama is great entertainment for sure! Sometimes I open my mouth maybe when I shouldn't but it's entertainment lol. Far as Aaron I'm with you as far as the best as I'm going to send him a 550mk2 to build for my firewood saw because I'm broken and can't handle the heavier saws anymore and he will make the 550mk2 stout enough to handle a 24in bar but not take away any life from the saw. Anyways good stuff as always and yea today was that red flag deal you spoke of Tony told me at the saw shop. Good to see your boy out there as that was me at his age! Be safe and see ya next time!!
When i was in high school, there would be fist fights over brands of chainsaws up here in north idaho. I port my own saws, especially after being screwed over several times sending my saws off to another state.
Right! Some folks try and beat around the bush I call it like I see it and will say something back just who I am lol grown men acting like some you know what instead of putting their money where their mouth is… and or talking about stuff they hardly know nothing about love ya brother hopefully it cools down so we can get to hammering wood and elk 🏹
Yeah I could do that but the main two I cut and sell is Doug Fire and Tamarack (western larch) thanks for the support my friend we love and appreciate you

boy did you ever nail it, exposing these know it all chainsaw guys. good job
I just get tired of guys trying to put other guys down when they don’t know their 🫏 from a hole in the ground

Yes sir it’s a disgrace to the whole saw community
@@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie agreed 👍

I think Jacob from Guilty of Treeson, is a reliable source of builders.
My favorite saw at the moment is the Stihl 500i with a 28 inch bar, just feels comfortable to me.
They are light and powerful I want one in my fleet eventually
@mountainlifewithdavidkelsie also runs a 36 inch bar just as well as my 661
Not sure my head is gonna fit through the door now😂...i appreciate you buddy..😎🤙🏻💯%
I’m a journeyman carpenter I’ll make that Mf as big as you want brother

Goes both ways brother ✊🏽 we love and miss ya buddy can’t wait for 2024!!!
I have a saw from Aaron Lynch he's a legit dude.
He’s a true stand up man! Never met him other than talking to him on here and the phone but he walks the walk no bullshit
I wish I could split with yall...just me and yall and our hydraulics..lol love mountain life..I live it too
I know nothing of stock or ported chainsaws yet so enjoy seeing a true man who teaches his children how to walk with pride in his world. Hats off to you David.
Thanks nan we love and appreciate you my friend
Hello David, Great Teamwork, I agree He’s the man, just wished Aron ported some Stihls😂 Take care my friend 🪵👍🏼🇺🇸

No drama and stock saws, not a bad way to live if you ask me lol. I don't have a problem with ported saws but a guy could save a lot more time cutting if he just learned sharpen his saw
Sharp chain is a must for sure😎🤙🏻
your boys quite the worker,,, The best saw is one that starts easy and always runs.

Come on out brother man
Someday I hope!! Some day! I’ll probably drag Aaron along with me.
I like your mindset your channel.
Thank you
Just wondering, when you're bucking y do u cut thru in layers instead of straight down? Thnx
