I have seen that saw in action once. It is simply amazing! Who built it?

As I've said many times now, Eric builds a mean saw. If someone wants him to build their saw, it certainly doesn't bother me. And also, like I've already said, this has little to do with who can build the fastest saw. It has everything to do with accusations that were made that simply cannot be backed up, and for that matter, evidence shows otherwise. And that only really matters because it comes from a man that likes to claim saws of his are stock, that are very obviously not.

Or Brad knows how to make a bad saw hold rpms in the wood thats half the race..:D

Is that what I did when my 260 took first in class against a couple of ECs saws, including your 5100? That right there is the day this whole fiasco started. Why someone that can build a saw like Eric can, is bothered by a work saw builder like me is beyond me.

A very light touch in the last 2 videos.

I'm getting confused though...here's what I'm hearing:

"I'm the winner, but it's not about who can build a faster saw...but mine's faster."

"Eric's a better builder than I am, but my saw's faster, but it's not about whose saw is faster (mine is)..."

If it's not about who has the better saw, then stop pretending like the videos demonstrate anything. They don't.

WHat evidence? You have two differnt guys running saw in two differnt wood types with differnt chains. TO me it looks like Woodchucker is a bit heavy handed, if I pull hard enough on that 880 it will slow down.

Jack Walker was there when they compared the 2 681's ask him, Jacks a stright shooter! Beside the 681 they compared it too was Nate's which that saw is used to log with. It wasn't Eric's saw.

If you really feel you have been wronged take Eric up on his deal, according to you Eric is the one that should be scared not you. I think Stihl the Deere hit it dead on, You're not fool enough to take that bet, you'd get embarrassed if you decided to go heads up, you know it as well as everyone else. I think it would be a eye opener to some of the guys here that haven't really seen what a guy like him can do. I know you won't do a build off, you'll just crow on how light handed you are and how the revs from that saw are just screaming in that pine, and they probably should with how high you took those transfers.

You seem to be forgetting again. Jason posted vids of the 681 comparing it to his 7900 right after he got it. The 681 was faster. What Jason didn't post here, but is on his YouTube channel, is the vid I posted earlier of the 681 with ECs topend on it run against that same 7900. The 681 was only about .2 seconds faster. There was a greater spread between the two when my topend was on it. I call that evidence.

Gink, you have to admit this 681 doesn't run anything like your 7900. Now that saw is a monster.
