    Ms170 with a 325 ?

    I came across a video of a guys swaping a 170 to that. I thinks that’s the route I’ll go.

    Ms170 with a 325 ?

    I have a old ms170. It’s my trail saw for on the quad/sled or in the pickup when hunting. The bar is original and is beyond warn out. It’s just the 16” .043 picco set up they come with. personally I hate that chain. And the tiny files. I would like to replace the bar. Was wondering if I can...

    What is on your Covid-19 stimulus money check list?

    500$ a month in taxes. Wow. Hope you Home Is north of 1million. I pay 450$ a year. Granted my home in 300k$ and remote with no services. But my parents Home is worth 1million. They still only paid a little over 300 a month.

    Bar chain sizes for some saws

    I have a 20” and 28” tsumuras that I swap between my 362 and 460. Awesome bars. Out ware my Stihl bars for sure. IMO. The only time I would not take a light weight bar would be milling. I would love a 16” tsumura

    Well I am still working every day. So no bonus check for me. But I have been saving for a new milling saw 880/3120.

    Granberg....worth the price.

    Kinda what I was figuring. Never thought about the bar not being mounted square on the cheap ones. Thanks for the advice. Found a disturdter near me in Canada. Going to put together a order soon. Thinking I’ll get a cannon bar to go with it.

    Granberg....worth the price.

    Hi guys. It’s time to upgrade my chainsaw mill. The one I have is old and was given to me. And has seen some repairs in it’s life. I think I know the answer. But are the Granberg mills that much better built then the many “off shore” brands. That are 1/3rd the cost? I like to save a buck...

    Pebbles in muffler-3120

    If it’s literally pebbles and no piston damage. It could be as simple as a packrat or squirrel thinking it was making a cashe. Spark screen removed? Just a theory.

    Your Biggest F@#k Up.

    About a year ago I literally walked out of a newly promoted “management position” in my last career. Now I run heavy equipment with a bit of saw work mixed in. Can’t put a price on happiness

    Your Biggest F@#k Up.

    I was following a excavator building road. He was pushing over the oversized fir. And I was bucking off root wads. Got my saw pinched in the first 4 trees. Each time radio the Ho to come help me.

    Ms661 vs ms880 on 36”mill

    Aux oil and helper handle add sweet FA to the mill IMO. More oil will is never a bad thing. The helper handle is nice when entering and finishing a slab. 48” adds 1ft plus weight. Im not sure what you classify as portable. But I’ve packed my mill 2km on my back to build bike bridges and...

    Ms661 vs ms880 on 36”mill

    You should have a look at the mill kit they have. It’s a double ended bar with a assist handle. Obviously I not thinking of running 2 power heads on a 36”. I like the auxiliary oiler and I don’t need to buy a bar. No to mention the 36” mill with the DE bar runs 153 drivers long. Should get...

    Ms661 vs ms880 on 36”mill

    I would say most logs are sub 30”. I know you need a longer bar to maximize mill cut width. The set up I have now for my 460 on a 25” ES bar only gives me 18” of cutting width. But my plan is it go with the Granburg 36” double ended bar and mill combo. I mill softwood. So I can run the...

    Ms661 vs ms880 on 36”mill

    I have been thinking on this for a bit. Part of me wasnts the 880 just to say I got the biggest. No 3cc idis. I know it’s a silly reason and the 3120 would do what I want with ease. But it’s a reason nonetheless. I got a little savings going for this buy. If I keep working threw this virus...
