    Could you skid logs with it? Do they have real pulling power, or is it just to get through snow?

    Herems a tree gaff and hybrid side by side. They give measurements but it's hard for me to picture, so here's a picture...

    Hybrid gaffs and some chafe sleeve... I've been wanting hybrids for a long time, but didn't bite cause they're spendy, and tree gaffs work. Also, it's not like I'm doing this all the time. Altissimus' new spikes got them back in my head, and Wesspur conveniently had 10% off spurs, and I...

    During covid I wore a keffiyeh as my covid mask. Once, I went to the thriftshop right after work, so I'm wearing full camo, have knives hanging all over me, and my keffiyeh on. A woman told me I was scary. I just nodded, but I was thinking "Perfect! Stay the frig away" :^D

    Got some exciting gear to show y'all today. You're in for a treat... A 24" palmyra broomhead! I found a clapped out 12" in an old barn, and even in it's degraded condition, it worked great on woodchips. The palmyra has good snap, and moves chunks well. I also like the idea of 100% natural...

    I have that chainsaw "swiss army knife"(TopSaw) I carry into the woods, and wear climbing when I remember. Everything in it works, and there's a lot of tools in a small area, but it isn't that nice to use. It's best attribute is it's there. Sheath sucks too. I lost my old one on the trail job...

    Every once in a awhile I think about a ratcheting scrench, and then think about all the times I've almost lost my cheapie screnches in the woods. I think "Nah, maybe later...". The blade's supposed to fit in a bar groove, which is cool. I like cleaning the bar every time I have to take it off...

    I grip the top bar in that situation if I'm visualizing it right.

    I give up. I can't find a Chinese full wrap for the 361. For some reason I *can* find one for 170. I don't know why such a thing exists, but it does. Might be fun to get a full wrap for mine, a pair of chonky westcoast dogs, and a 12" bar just to make it extra stupid :^D

    Does the 361 share a chassis with anything else?

    The stubby scrench isn't terrible. I just prefer full height more. I guess I'd have to just use a full wrap, and see what I think. Looking at pics doesn't really tell you what it feels like in practice.

    Maybe. It looks like a hassle to get a scrench on though. My 362 came with a stubby full wrap scrench(half wrap saw though), and it's fine, but I prefer the full height scrench, and working around the handle looks like a minor pain, but maybe not. I've never used one.

    Does anyone have a vid showing the ideal use of a full wrap saw? Quality of cutting is irrelevant. I just want to see where it's best used. Every time the topic of a full wrap comes up, I can't think of a single time it would've saved the day for me. There's been a couple times it would've been...

    Have you tried a larger file? I just bought some 11/64" files for this saw, and I think they'll work better than the recommended 5/32". I've done one sharpening with the 5/32" with good success, and did a couple trial teeth with the 11/64" to test for fit. I haven't had the saw long, and it...

    Rope ends! That 1" stablebraid is a hell of line. I think you could move a planet with it if you had a good enough anchor.

    ...for that size. Which brings me to Dukes... If they made a chain that size, I'd give it a try due to the slim offering by other companies, but I'm *very* leery of Chinese chain. I've had 0% success with the Chinese chains I've tried. I pretty much stick with Stihl for my "normal" saws. I've...

    ...removed. I've read people that sharpen chains out of the box. They say they can make them better than factory. I believe them, but I don't think *I* can make a Stihl chain meaningfully better than it's shipped condition. I can do better than the Husky chain though. I almost sharpened it when...
