That saw cuts so fast I can smell the wood chips through my monitor.

Thats hilarious. Ol Randy knows his stuff:rock: When I pick that one up, Im leaving the Johnsered 2095 I just bought with him for the works- whatever can be done and still be a "woods" usable saw. Just finished tonight reading all 16 pages of threads under "2095" search. Not a single build thread amongst them. Lot of info but no builds.

Good stuff homy Jim! Steven that 2095 is real strong I hear, and well built. Even for a smaller saw yeah the 044 is handy, and impressive. Rand good shiat! I love that pic man! someday when we meet up, I would love to see your scrap books.

I was swapping stories, and pics on Facebook the other night with funkysawman. Talking about a old doug fir that fell up a hill, and lucky for the guy we did the job for. Down the hill he would have been homeless it would have destroyed his house. Anyway one of my favorite muscle saw moments, though have had several this one stood out. Big tree the butt was just under 6 feet through. We had to take down a sudden oak death tan oak first. It was on a hillside, and had to rig and tie everything. The guy was a retired fire chief or captain. We hit the fir to tackle after the bust ass day on the oak, and had maybe 2 hours before dark. The tree was bound pretty good I climbed up, and started bucking off side top down, all we had to clear was about 15-20 for a walk way, so we planned to buck firewood size rounds, but like 28 in length, and roll them out using a chain hoist, chokers and bull rope and blocks. Easier said than done the first one was a biatch, but we got it thanks to the chain hoist. After we got the first round out the gap went from 24 inches to almost closing on the top. We had to do some blocking the old guy was so impressed with our work, and rigging and said he never saw saws throw chips, a cut through such big wood with ease. Said in his day it wasn't the case. It was before I owned the 2101, but thanks to our two 066's made ease of the job! It felt real good saws got good workout and we ate that one on what we made for cash, but was worth making somebody that happy, and them being impressed with our work.
