I never did get a real good "looking" cut today......I ran a little fuel through the saw noodling a few big nasties. Then filed the chain.

Just about rolled the round over on me :laugh: but here's that vid.



I'm really anxious to see how the jug with the epoxied intake does. I prolly need to find a better way to hold them rounds though. :chop:

I'm having a heck of a time keeping a good chain in this weather. There is ice on all the wood here, and after a cut or two, the chain is blunt.

I'll do my best to test this next saw with just a modded muffler, and with a couple of different jugs.

I have two more in route, so the MS661 will get plenty more testing here.

Brad, I've really not been able to get any serious time on these saws......but I think they are gonna be a very popular saw. How it compares to one of my 395s.......I still don't think it will be able to touch it.

I do a 395 with 100/120/80

I have a 661 jug sitting here with those exact numbers.......we shall see.
