I spent 40 years working in the woods in Southern Oregon and Norcal. 26 years as Faller and Bullbuck. I've found the chain is the most important part of your cutting equipment. A properly ground square chisel chain will increase your cutting Approx. 20%. Keeping your chain out of the dirt, working your strip properly, and not getting hung up and pounding wedges all day is the secret to cutting big scale. I'm a bit baffled by all this saw modifying. If the saw won.t handle the job, you get a bigger one. Even a modified muffler is a big NoNo out here during fire season. When I first started guys were having kart motors put on there big Macs. They broke a lot of starter ropes. ****** way to start the day. I seen a lot of guys modify their saws but I haven't seen the increase in production. What am I missing?
