Those slabs he's cutting off would make a cool table.. the bar on that saw is ridiculous

 

[Hills Hoard]

That chainsaw is bad a$$....i wouldn't have the plumbs to tackle that log with that saw

 

[Osagebndr]

So what is that an 090 with a 60" bar or what?

Holy cats that's huge Now here's a dumb question-I'm the right guy to ask it ha ha-but how do you make a cut on something that enormous without your chain hitting the ground and dulling it, especially with a saw that big? How do you keep the chain off the ground when you are making the final stages of the cut?

 

[drz1050]

Looks like they cut halfway through, turn it over, then cut the other half... if they have a log like that, they probably have heavy machinery close by

I wonder who picks the saw chips out of his socks and boots. Cutting in shorts...

I am still trying to figure out how they could be called "rounds".

 

[HybridFyre]

I didn't even know they made bars that big

There was one the cover of the Stihl catalog a couple years back with some champion cutter posing all sexy like.
Sweet like.

I'm trying to figure out who in San Diego buys firewood... I lived there for a few years a while back, don't ever remember being cold. We used to have pallet bonfires on the beach though, those were fun

My local saw shop stocks bars up thru 72" on their rack. I'm sure someone has bigger.

Yes that looks just like some the fallen branches we get over here .........

If the ground is flat, you keep the power head (as in the base of the crank case) parallel with the ground. If you do this the chain will always be out of the dirt. You can literally cut till you set the chainsaw on the ground. I even use this method on my puny 25" bar.

They have so many different types of trees out there they supply surrounding states by the semi load
