Excellent job!!! I'm always jealous when I see a tree that big, they are the exception to the rule for me. A good way to break in the saw!

Bet you had a smile on your face the whole time.

What kind of wood is that?

Here's a pic of my meagre but sufficient shelterbelt cleanup program. White/American Elm. Nowhere near as big but the bigger pieces give the saw a work out.

Thanks guys thats pin oak I also have a good sized maple in the front yard and a few more pin oaks down on the side of the house. Hopefully I didnt work the 361 too hard for break in she was getting pretty hot. I stopped a few times and let it cool down and of course for refueling. Also a few times after a big cut I ran out of gas but it was never while in the cut so worried about running lean.

Awesome workout for your 361, She will thank you later for breaking her in right!!! Give her a muffler mod and she will give you a reward!!!

Do your new saw and yourself a favor Keep that chain razor sharp!!!!!!!!

and use a good synthetic mix w/premium fuel,,, Ultra HP is pretty darn good!!!! Ive been running it 3 years now and the tear downs Ive done have looked really great,,,,,,, :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Nice saw ,,,,,, glad to see you like it!!!!!

JMHO,,, Id be looking for a 70+ cc saw for continued cutting of wood that size,,,,

Putting my other chain on tomorrow and going at it if it doesnt rain. I was running hp ultra in her and will continue to do so. Once these big trees are finished I shouldnt have anymore that big. The tree pictured was one of the biggest on the property.
