To add to my last post here's my D handle on my homemade bike saw. On this saw it's a must, to get her to start instantly on the word "GO":D

D handles can be bought from snowmobile shops or some of the rescue saws for fire fighters have them. Useless on a work saw, they flop around and get snagged on everything. Those early non decomp 066's were from the era when men were men ha ha. Any one who buys one of these saws new had damn...

Yeah that's a great shot of that pine, what's that white boom behind it? I sure wish I had photos of the oversized white spruce I logged back in the '70s here in Manitoba. I wasn't on spurs like Bixler but I was about 17 felling on a strip of spruce that was on the average 36"-48"dbh...

Yep same here 18" b/c on a 60-87cc powerhead. In sawlog size softwood timber 20". The odd old growth oversized stands 24". Pulpwood only 14-16" b/c. On 50-60cc powerhead. :)

Oh I forgot biggest production felling saw was back in my earlier Jonsereds days....a Jonsered 920.

Production falling the 85cc 064 was my biggest saw and it was as heavy as a 046. My 066 I just used only for firewood production. With 28" b/c I noodle split alot of big crotch rounds with it.. Great saw for firewood espescially big birch.

28" on my oldest 066 is perfect balance for me .I have 2 newer 36" Oregon .050 bars for it and used one of them only a few times.. 32" on the 395XP. When Stihl introduced the 066 in 1991/92 it was competing against the 394XP so Stihl made those early units extra peppy .Mine was a 066 Magnum...

Looks like Sweden's gold medal bound........

It's all cool Stig we're even now:) I'm having a hard time writing right now as I'm watching the 7th end of Sweden vs Norway curling match. Very exciting match Sweden is leading 6 to 4.

Yeah different logging regions where chainsaws are used have different ways of doing things .This area going out to the west coast where saws are the money earners piecework is the way they get paid almost everywhere The saws are only used by the owner who buys it and he takes care of it and...

You handled that well as a true professional would Stig I never had any doubts you weren't one.:thumbup:

HAHA Speaking of kneeling at your alter with your picture on top You speak pretty highly of yourself Stig . Everyone knows a true professional woodcutter or craftsmen is a tool geek included. Maybe a few too many hits of acid has warped your noggin a little?:lol:

Good to see you around Al. I have 2 Stihl 066's. One is the early red lite with the dual outlet muffler. The newer 066 with the decomp even with a dual muffler is slower but still not as sluggish as a 660. Porting #s on the early red lite were really good.
