Is it too grabby or just won't bore worth a hoot. ?? These new various safety chains suck at boreing . Too much extra stuff on the chain to counter act kick back. Round shouldered chain doesn't bore as well as chisel bit. But extra metal parts in the depth gauge " rider" part of the chain...

I'de have never out right said that but that's been what I've seen. Pre commercial tree thinners are on par with most farmers and construction workers. Abysmal. Falling timber where there is no volcanic ash on the trees, I get about 36-40 total hours out of a 36" chain. Chisel grinding...

Loading 20' logs onto my Duce after I got my loader.

I'de forgot about my Solo. This is the 681 . It flat screamed with this 16" bar on it. . Kinda hard on my back from all the bending over tho. But, it did fit in the rack on my snow go. And it would start and run pretty good. . With an 8 tooth 3/8 s I had seemingly no end to the chain speed...

:thumbup: nice looking setup. . An Alpine sure was a work horse of a sled. Any one that has one around here keeps them. The only places we have birch here in the Copper Basin is steep and broken up. Because we have had lots of beattle kill here DNR Forestry wanted all the standing dead and...

Its so warm this winter. Its weird. But, it has been allowing me to do firewood at a more leisurely pace. But I still want a new little saw :-)

Thanks. I just do firewood small scale now. Mostly my own and maybe 10 more cord a year for friends. Its actually a lot of fun not having the pressure to maximize production for profit.

A flat bed truck makes life soooooo much easier than a pickup bed.

Sorry about the sideways pics :-(

2 cord fell,Limbed,logged and loaded. Working alone with a chain saw, pulp hook , snow mobile+sled and a 1 ton pickup makes for a long hard day!!! I know I've posted quite a few pics in this thread. I got trolling thru my photobucket acnt and found some oldies but goodies. Well maybe not...

For this size wood a pulp hook is the best hand tool I've found. And a 4+c.I. saw

For this size wood a 241 Stihl or 543Husky would be perfect With all the snow and hoar frost I would have to walk around with a 12' log dead spruce pole and bang the trees to see if they were dead or not. Customers got kind cranky if they got much green wood. It made for an extra hard day and...

I use a pulp hook partly/mostly because I grew up using one in Maine. We sold our pulp, balsam fir and spruce, and poplar, bamagilyd. In 4' lengths. Fencing white cedar in various lengths from 6'-12' . Birch went 50" iirc. We fell, Limbed and bucked to length, then ricked along side...

That pic could be right around here!!! These are the hooks I use.

This is the timber on the land we are planning on just not big enough for me to pack a 4 cube saw around.

Wow. Husky has a redirect air kit. I asked dealers about something like that and they looked at me like a Jersey cow. Clue less. I'm gonna start buying my saws in Canada. Your 372 prolly has heated handles also. I think The Woodway in FAIRBANKS sells those tongs. I'm gonna get 1 . One...

372 with a 16" bar. Wow. That would zoom. How do you like the tongs compared to a pulp hook?? For hard frozen wood I think the tongs would work better than the pulp hook. I would be lost without my hook. I use the Canadian pattern Peavey hook for in the woods and the 606 Favorite , Peavey...

Here is some more. I cut this with my 460 Stihl but a smaller saw would have worked just as well as I wasn't under any time constraints
