Which is better for hardwoods

[Roll Tide]

Torque allows anyone to use a saw even the heavy handed goobers like David here.

MM, I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum from David in the vid - late 60's, 150 soaking wet, average strength at best, light touch, let the equipment do the work while I guide it. And to top it all off, it's time for me to go light or go home, but I can't give up my chainsaw therapy. You know as well as I do how good it is for what ails a man.

It just seems like I should be able to substitute my skill, experience and touch for enough torque and weight so I can keep on sawing. Where am I going wrong in my thought process?

The measurement we call horsepower is a derivative. Nothing more.

And derivatives were a big part of the financial meltdown.

Mods, please move this thread to the Politics forum or Troll forum as you see fit.

Now is that any way to treat a friend? :msp_sad:

I would think that a MS261 that's been well ported for torque would fit you like a glove my friend.

Actually , I like enough torque , to keep self feeding in the hardest Oak without bogging , and enough HP to keep the engine spinng 12,500 in the cut .

So what electrocutes a person? Volts or amps?

amps.

Technically it can be milliamps.......

I was going to move it to Trivia, with the rest of Spacemule's threads, but it's already full.

Ifn it's the amps then why ain't all the kids ridin around with their boom boxes thumpin getting shocked? :taped:

 

[MichiganMan]

Chainsaws have low rotational mass so they need revs and therefore more power to continue spinning through a cut. Lawnmowers, for comparison, have comparable engines (such as an old lawn-boy) but also much higher rotational mass and do not need to rev so high, relying more on torque to keep the rotational mass spinning at a given rate. Horsepower is the rate of the application of torque.

It is, however, somewhat different for cars. Horsepower sells them, torque is what actually moves them.

What mix should I run in my saw to get max HP? Oh and I assume I need some low drag bar oil to keep up my chain speed. What would you recommend for winter?. LOL all you need is a ape rappedMs261 and 395xp. End of story.

both amps give's you the current and volts give you presure

Ooooh

16:1 rotella for all the ported work saws.

You torque guys are falling behind! You gonna let the hp nerds ##### slap you like that? :msp_biggrin:
