Well done, thank you for the continuing updates and great pictures.:msp_thumbup: Sounds like you are very busy, hope it continues that way for you.

Work safe. :msp_thumbsup:
 
Thank you Very MUCH from Ohio! I'm also a fellow 365sp owner. It was professionally used for 4 years, then 12 cord a year for about 8 years before its first problem...the little plastic worm gear in the oiler wore out. Funny, I posted pictures of my 365sp with a 24" bar when i joined AS and basically got laughed at, that a 24" bar was too much bar for a "measly 65cc saw" I"m glad someone else finally gets that many years later!!! Hundreds, if not thousands of gallons thru mine and lots of money made with my saw. I'll try to dig up a couple pictures of it with some big ash trees. thank you again for posting all the pics of your homeland.

oh btw, alot of the videos I couldn't view as it said "private". I read this whole thread from start to finish in one sitting! I commend ya for the efforts!

Here is the only quick pics I could find of my 365 special. I want to say it is a 99 or 2000 model. I dropped this tree with a 24" bar but only use a 20" bar for normal cutting duties. I can't remember what kind of try this was, I'm thinking off of memory it was either red ash or elm. I used the base chuck for splitting and bucking up some of my firewood.

thanks NH LOCAL for the kind words.

great saw you got there,good to hear it has served ya well too for all this time.i too like the miffler mod and the falling spikes you have.

i find the 365sp and 440 xtorque a great match for large trees,i usually start off felling it with 365 and limb with 440.so far neither of the saws have given any bother whatso ever which is impressive,the hardest work the 440 had to do was clearing bushes in along the road way,it was severe on it,nevertheless it didn't knock a stir out of it..... ;)

i think the 365sp pulls the 24" with authority,no problems here and i have had it in very large trees.....ash and cedar,whitethorn etc

going back to work later now for more wood,need to cut up all the trees marked out at the moment and bring them back first,then we will arrange another batch to cut.
lovely day here today :rock:

ASH firewood fit for a king,so many great qualities i find

- clean
- easy on saws,clean to work with
- easy to split
- best lasting
- great intense heat
- less limbing
- fantastic looking

this here is a typical load for sale,a 9x5 tralier which contains 3cubic meters of ASH,a nice small load which most households want this time of year,price -250euros!
