    facecut always needed???

    Well, I'm not trying to steer anyone down the wrong path, but dear old dad taught me to notch and then cut even or below the notch w/back cut. The tree needs to be weighted close to the direction you wish to drop it and you need to have a good eye in determining that's where the tree wants to...

    Sachs Dolmar Chainsaws Thread

    Thanks as well as I always enjoy such. Not to whine, yet I can't hardly read the text even if I enlarge it one size. Just a tad blurry even w/specs that would normally clean-up/focus fine print, for me. Guess I need the big letters/bold type version for geriatrics or possibly I can snag a...

    Chain too short w/ 24" Sugihara & 372xp

    Testing, 1, 2, 3... Hello? Hel---lo! This is Will Stockdale anybody out there? The AT mount is supposed to fit sumpthin' like 270 various models, so I figure someone knows the size of the slot.

    a cord of wood

    The Grat state of Rkinsaw only recognizes a cord. a lot of folks sell ricks that used to be half a cord, when fireplaces would hold 2' wood. Time marches on and the rick becomes 18" long & fits nicely in the newer, yet smaller, fireplace. Lots of tiny apartments/condos built in the 70, 80s...

    Chain too short w/ 24" Sugihara & 372xp

    OK, I'm game, or was that gamey, how do you tell 'twixt .375 & .325? J or Q. While on the SugiHara train; what's the AT mount height? As I understand the SV is 14MM w/3 differing adapters allowing mounts of 8, 9, & 10MM. Other than the hardnose bar the two rollers are offered by HEV...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    I kinda jumped on board of Mntgun's thread coz there isn't a whole lot on the Olys & he had a lot of good stuff on his mod. I didn't figure he would mind. According to JD the CS71 & CS81 are different by 2MM bore & 2MM stroke. So, you should be able to put a 81 jug on the 71 and split...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    Thanks Kevo! The Oregon Super XLAO bar and 3/8-.050 A1 Oregon chain that I took off of the Homey work great. Just quite a bit of play & that's why I wondered about that 9MM Cannon H1bar that I posted. Even though It doesn't move when tightened I'd prefer closer tolerance twixt the mount &...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    "All this talk about Olympyks is driving the prices up on them." Is all the talk about Huskys driving the price up on them as well? Prices aren't going down and folks are looking for a bargain that isn't junk. The Oly isn't a 272, but it's tight for the price & cost 1/2-1/3 of what a...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    That would explain the modest increase in HP from 71 to 81CC. Now I'd like to snag an 81CC top end. Mine should be here today...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    I did a little more snoopin' 'round on the Olys. 970-71CC-3.8KW/5.095hp 980-81CC-4.2KW/5.63hp Just a hair over 1/2 a horse for 10 extra CCs, yet 10CC over 71 represents over 14% increase in volume. Must use the same carb. I figured there'd be closer to 7/10-3/4 horsepower...

    Yesterday, I Delivered the Best 3 Cords Ever

    " are you Mr.X ?" No, but I watched Mr. Wrestlin' #II take on Mike George once upon a time from ringside. I'm sure Swamp Yankee is a good Joe. I just happen to vehemently disagree on his take, on this one particular incident. Nobody bats a thousand...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    Thank you sir. What's the difference between Oleo-Mac and Efco? Is Efco a US only version? I realize everything goes through/comes from EMAK I'm just trying to connect the dots... ---------------- Ha,Ha,ha the jokes on me. The only 70 sumpthin' model they show is a 271. No 970/971 or...

    Olympyk 980 Woods Port

    In this day of Chiney saws I'm surprised that Oly doesn't try the US market w/their cheaper, but dependable no thrills saws. Maybe the EPA regulations come into play. I'm anxious for mine to come in & want to snag a 2', 3/8" .050 B/C instead of the .058. Trying to keep all chains the same...

    Yesterday, I Delivered the Best 3 Cords Ever

    I think you're an ass for being greedy and then whining about how you were gonna get stuck w/3 cords of seasoned wood when you know good and well you'd have no problem unloading that to someone else. You don't know what this repeat customer has just been through or might be going through to...
