  • Join us as we share the 2 chainsaws that are helping us build our homestead from scratch!
    Creating an Alaska homestead from scratch on 160 acres requires the right tools for the job.
    These 2 tools are worth the money in moving the farm forward for our family.

    Yep I'd agree 👍 nice review. Great little saws, I would have to say my 170 is the best $ 299aus I've ever spent on something for what it can actually do.

    Good review. I have 3 saws but not a Stihl. I relly appreciate a good running saw regardless of brand.

    Those are all great saws for life on the homestead. We’re arborists and own/operate a tree service company so obviously we have a larger arsenal but our favourites for daily use on the job site right now are the 261c and the 462c. They are used all day long. Going to get a 500i this summer I think for the fleet. We love the classics like the 044, 066, the 880. We have a lot of battery products now too! Especially for climbing. Husqvarna has been dominating the battery products so we have a few of those as well as some big husky gas saws. John used to be a logger out west in northern Alberta in the winters and his felling saw was a husqvarna 365. Great video and we share a mutual love for chainsaws 😄

      Oh wow that's neat! So you both are very familiar with saws obviously! Well thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed the video... as you know saws are awesome- but extremely dangerous!

    You can purchase a side chain tensioner for the 170 that fits right in with no modifications.
    They're pretty cheap and easy to install

      Just purchased a new ms261cm and am itching to get it into the wood.
      It's finally starting to cool down here in Oklahoma, and I'm getting pumped!
      My ms170 is still going strong as well!

    They recommend 50:1, I believe from experts 40:1 is not harmful either. What is the logic of 100:1.?

      I asked him and he said less smoke in your face...and a snapier saw...so that is his reasoning. Thanks for watching!😊

    1 Thessalonians 4:13-14
    King James Version
    13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
    14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. n Gods blessings over you .
