    The 7310 is a beautiful powersaw. She can noodle. But the mother of all chainsaws, 090, she is a beautiful beast. Very fun to watch iit in action

      Thanks, Kenny! I am so impressed with Echo equipment. I think the 7310 and maybe one of their smaller saws like the 4920 would make a perfect 2 saw plan for amazing value!

    Great camera work John - - as you analyzed the end of that log and the wood quality at 8:00. I totally agree with your analysis. Not a lot of lumber in that one - but being it's maple, lots of good burning.
    I've really never cut with the grain while using a non-ripping chain, so I was pleasantly surprised to see how well the saw/chain combo you were using handled that.
    Great video interlude on a snowy day where I decided to spend the afternoon in the great indoors.

    A beautiful sawing session Mr. John. The ECHO did great and was capable of finishing the job, but to see the 090 run was magnificent!
    You have an excellent "mess" of wood there, very nice blocks. It is actually admirable wood for maple. Great job sir...

    Good morning John, great video! That Sthil 090 is quite the saw. Great fun to watch in action. My little Husqvarna Rancher feels heavy after I have been cutting for a while. I can only imagine. Too bad about the nails. They did quite a job on the chain. Your neighbors are going to be happy. That's a nice load of wood for their boiler. Have a great week, Ben 👋😎👍

      @thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849 I have always loved an old school maccullochs sound better than any saw ever, but whenever I got my 090AV and fired it up it's a toss up for tone. I'd like to watch a video of starting it because I prime the carb on mine and get a buddy to hold in the compression button, or I can't pull it

    Your Stihl needs a carb adjustment. It's too fat and needs to leanout the high jet. It would amaze you how much faster it would cut if it was two stroking as soon as you get in the cut.

    • @thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849
      @thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849  Місяць тому

      Yup! For an old saw that gets run once every couple of years, it gets out of tune.

      I would be careful with your thinking on this and your comment. When I was logging in Maine in the 70's, we had the 090's. They were used for stumping and initial bucks on the butt logs. They were never designed for high RPM. Max was 8k. These saws were built for low end torque to get through big wood. They were built to last, and the lower RPM meant they did heat transfer very well. Don't compare them to modern saws that rev at 12-13K. If I had tried to "lean it out" back then when I was a young faller, I would have had my ass handed to me by the older guys. Is this saw a bit rich? Yes. But if you had listened to him, he said he runs it very rarely. That being the case, he better run it rich than lean. That saw, in that condition would easily bring $2k on eBay if not more. It would be a fool's game to "lean it out".
