    I’m loving the logging content Gordy. I’m a huge fan and supporter of your business. I have a 500i and 2 661’s and am running your BarkBox mufflers, 3 point felling dogs, and chain catchers on all 3 of them. You make amazing products and I tell everyone about your company. Thanks for everything you do buddy!

      That very 066 was the very first saw that got me started in this business
      It was my buddy Jerry’s saw (he was one hell of a faller) “RIP”and someone he had working for him ran it on a woodpile with a dull chain and did her in “piston and cylinder”…….
      I called him up and was looking for a saw to do some falling with on my property and he said “take this old thing you’ll figure out how to make her go” 😁

    Our family ranch had a hill that was almost all power pole trees. We would climb them to limb up. Besides fire wood some of the first bit of falling that I did was pole trees. Always a degree of forethought to it all.
    Thanks for taking us along.

    I set 8)100' poles for lighting a Kentucky high-school football/track field in the early 60s. Wind snapped one off in the 70s. Couldn't acquire a 100' replacement. Had to settle for a 95' out of Georgia. Serving the light fixtures on those poles was scary. The cross arms had to be realigned every year for the first three years due to the twist of the grain. Nowadays, all sports field poles are galvanized steel.😏

    • @PurpleNovember
      @PurpleNovember Рік тому +2

      I grew up in the PNW and would routinely climb those trees well over a hundred feet. I couldn’t imagine doing that now as an adult. I wouldn’t want to be working on those lights a hundred feet in the air!
      That must have been something to accomplish considering all the logistics involved.

    Nothing sucks more than messing up a bar by getting it pinched or throwing your chain and not knowing how to pop it back on without tools. So every tip you can learn in the woods or by pros given u listen and follow what they say because it will help you in the long run ten fold.
