I'm OK with that, as you will notice that I "like" a lot of his posts. I don't want to go back and rehash it, but last nights comment was entirely different.

Yup, I agree that was WRONG and uncalled for and I would rather read/ talk about saws, but judging by Nik's user name he don't strike me as a self conscious type. And if one wanted to give a dig, well.........

Now THAT'S some real cuttin'! Now that you mention it, I remember seeing a vid where he starts out kneeling on to the log so that he can over buck, then drops to the ground to finish the cut, all without missing a beat:rock:

I seen a vid on you tube like that, but the guy was on the right side of the log(in the vid) and when he jumped down from the log, he must of slipped or something, but didn't skip a beat and finished the cut on his stomach. AWESOME only seen it once and I've been looking for since.
 
How about the saw? 776 posts and we don't even have a running saw, let alone a 'Monster.' Maybe you are holding out for Halloween?

There have been two different variations running in this thread. There's vids of this saw with a woods ported topend as well as with a 2-piece head and pipe. This is a 3rd iteration with a 1mm over-bored cylinder.

The best vid I ever saw was a old Mac cutting a log that big, at least 30" and it goes through it like butter, though the cutter didn't start standing on the log, I've been looking for that vid forever now, and can't find it.

I like this one too has some old saws/cars/trucks in it.

Thank you, I have most of the original saw
in that video.

No, Thank You, and who ever decided to film this video.:msp_thumbsup:

Time for a resto!!!! And a updated video.


This one made the decision for me to find a 3120 for you to do when I get the money.

I used to ride a fully modified Duncan Racing ported Banshee. Man I loved that thing! I sold it about 8 years ago.

You are one brave soul sir, I'm a big Motorsport guy and that's one machine that I wanted no part of. Those things are stupid fast and sound amazing!
 
here ya go [video=youtube;JCii4c5BdIE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCii4c5BdIE[/video]
 
Always wanted to see a 350 banshee made into a chainsaw somehow.....

Yup, Boss had one, it would take some bigggg kahonas to make a saw out of one.
 
Here's one of Brads that made me look for a 6401. Not a hot saw but I think its cool.

Hah hah. I sold that Makita with a stock BB top end to another Aussie AS member. I then fitted the pop up top end on one of my Dolmar 7900's. Still going strong and probably running better now than it was in that video. Great saw and there are faster 7900's out there than that one too :) It's done a fair bit of work now - I was felling with it running a 32" bar and non skip semi chisel on the weekend (I also ran a 24" .325" Tsumura with 9 pin). It's still pulling over 200psi warm and would have seen in excess of 600 hours by now. It has not missed a beat.
 
Looks like Brad needs to port a Scag or an Exmark, or maybe a haymower, your killin' me w/ the lawn situation. Looks like an safety issue.:msp_biggrin:
