For a Stihl guy, you talk pretty smart :greenchainsaw:A sharp chain is worth 3.9876454 X the HP...

Oh please great 2000 tell me what I am missing.
So you realy think digging in is the way to go.
I'll bet your one of those guys that file the rakers way down so you can dig better.
Tell me about the power bands your talking about?
this is all new to me.

Gotta sell some more wood before it arrives.
Do you recommend using the mount kit with it?
I need to put some weights on the front end. It was a little sketchy today pulling up a steep hill with the back full of cherry.
the kit makes life easier as for weights i don't think they make a
carrier may have to fab your own would be pretty easy though
if an 80 year old man can make a plate and mount 2 lawnmower
bucket seats because he didn't like the factory seat weight
carriers should be no problem at all
No you dolt! It be "learnt."He got learned right good!
Yeah I like the part where he said the 2171 is little.
Maybe he don't know squat.
side by side the 2171 is bigger.
Hey ciscodude stop reefing on those huskys, it's not a Stihl. you don't have to work as hard, Let it do the cutting for ya.

Come on guys, good technique is easy to see. Watch the guys run Stocksaw in the STSS. The cases never even get close to the wood. These guys cut hundreds of cookies a year trying to get faster technique. Dogs have their place, but not in making it through a bucking cut faster.
I kept the 2171 at higher revs because it had better power there. I run all saws at full throttle, but I let the 440 dig more because it had more power at the lower rpm range. I believe that = torque. But I still liked the 2171 better, and it has lasted longer than any other saw I've had.
Your 440's and 460's might just embarass either one. But there's a half-cord on the pickup and almost a full cord on the trailer to help heat my house and shop.
That's what matters most, doncha think?
Nope, digin' in isn't the way, didn't never say that. I said it was nice to have the power if needed. My rakers go down around .020-030.
Now, you agree that these 2 machines, with 2 different motor designs cut/run the same?
Most girls have a plug that does all the work for them. Guess we know whether you sit or stand to pee eh? I guess huskaredpoland springs do also.... I'm not even gonna go there with you if that's the best you can do, lmfao...
Bring it... eh?
No the 2171 and the 440 does not run the same.
Thats the whole point.
I'm just trying to figure out where this hidden power is.
I think you are getting confused on the sound of the stihl power band.
When hitting that band the saw slows down. so wheres the power now?
Lighten up a bit and the speed goes up making chain travel faster, creating more chips.
I have yet to find the advantage of the stihl power band over the Jonsered power band. if both saws are run right. (Again Technique)
I guess maybe stihl is more forgiving for the novice cutter.
I'll bet your ol lady can cut faster then you can.
Hmmmm
By the way you describe your technique using a husky.
I'll bet your ol lady can cut faster then you can.
