Husqvarna , The Whole Story

[chowdozer]

I sure like thease threads better than the oil ones. Someone ought to start a Mac and Homelite one.

Should I mix 1:1 or 50:1 or 100:1?

 

[Sprig]

Well Jim I thought it only fair and fitting Husky have a chance to have their story told too since I'm working on the Andreas Stihl story in the other thread. I thought lets start a Husky thread. I'm all for it. Tomorrow I'm heading on back to keep working on mine and they can keep building this one. Come the end of the year we'll see who has the title of most viewed, freindly competition I say, all in good hearted fun but someone has to lose and someone has to win, I'll put my money on the Stihl thread because I know what all is coming in that one,LOL

OOOooo-ooooo, just a wee thought here>>>>>>>>>> betcha Husky products (all told) have killed more (trees excepted), and made more dresses...............didn't see that coming eh!


*ducks*




(big ducks! With AKs and teeth! credit cards! Sushi! Yup alla good stuff!)


:jester:

 

[Sprig]

Yep...sure is...although these Husky Buggers tried to muck-it-up. They didn't succeed! Check out the Andreas Stihl thread. It should be back on track now that the Husky folks have their own fire hydrant to pi$$ on!

Hm, smells familiarly alike.

Ahh well, let the Stihl guys have their fun, they have to get excited about some old dead dude in their thread, they talk about the man, not the chainsaw, because their saws SUCK ASS. We talk about our saws, not some old dead dude, because our saws KICK ASS.

[Woodie]

Well well well...

I just finished watching the SEC kick some Big Eleven axe for yet a second straight year in the BCS Championship game, and it looks like I missed lots of fun here tonight.

Heh heh...

 

[parrisw]

Yes, Woodie you missed lots of fun, we could of used you. Stay tuned for more.

Enjoy the show.

Some scents can never be masked...

Ever smelled a wet dog???

No truer words were ever spoken, Lake.

Lolol, oh gee thanks Andy, wasted another cocktail since I have a big, wet, not-so-smelly-now, dog sitting on my feet drying out afore I kick her out for the night, lololol. Hey, it smells better than a dry dog without several days in the water
GAH-YUCK!! *gag*

 

[BIGBORE577]

Sorry ole boy I'm not giving you any more ammo.

Not that it matters Stihl never made a rifle

Never had to. He had countrymen like, Paul Mauser, Hugo Borchardt, Friedrich Wilhelm Heym, J.P. Sauer, Josef Werndl, Ferdinand Ritter von Mannlicher ........... the list goes on. With the Deutsche, it's genetic, everyone else has to try harder! LOL

 

[SawTroll]

Didn't I see a post once in which someone alluded to Husky copying pioneer or partner or some other defunct company? Please correct my misunderstanding, or add other facts......opcorn:

:censored:

 

[SawTroll]

Ok now this is where tom smiles from ear to ear.

In 1965, Stihl introduced an innovation in chain saw design with its antivibration system, which absorbed the impact of the saw's vibration, allowing steadier and less fatiguing control. This design change was quickly copied by Stihl's competitors. Three years later, Stihl added an electronic ignition system to its saws, improving their reliability. Other design changes included a more efficient chain lubrication system, an inertial chain braking system, which stopped the chain in the event of kickback, and a master control lever, which allowed the user to control the saw's starting and stopping functions without releasing the saw's handle.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm thats interesting!!!

(my my its great to have a sharp memory,hehe)

Sorry Tom, but that sort of doesn't count, due to the crude "add-on" design of that system - it was not a truely integrated system...... opcorn:

The first saw for both felling and de-limbing
With the introduction of model 70 in the early '60s, Husqvarna revolutionized forestry. Model 70 was so light and handy that it could even be used for de-limbing. This was partly due to Husqvarna’s long experience of building engines that were light yet extremely robust. Chain saws were starting to be used for longer periods each workday and for a wider range of tasks, and consequently, problems caused by vibrations from the engine and bar began to be more common. So extensive R&D work was initiated, in order to find ways to reduce the vibrations in the handle and thus to minimize the associated health risks.

Small, handy and efficient. The first one weighs less than 5 kg which can be compared to the first model which weighed 11.5 kg.

The model 70 wasn't a true Husky (Cresent design), and wasn't very successful either.

It was sold as Partner as well, btw......

According to wikipedia, Husky owns Poulan, and Jonsered.

+ a lot more......

 

[SawTroll]

Me thinks stihl should be called gadgets inc.:hmm3grin2orange:

Very true!!



Trouble is, that Husky has to join the gadget game, to keep up on the consumer market..... :bang:

 

[SawTroll]

What's happened to this thread? Oh well...we're talking about Husky after all...can't expect much more than a FLATLINER from get go. I like all these Husky history posts...right off the Husky web site...they can't even con someone into writing about them. Poor Buggers!

They are from Huskys web-site, so we didn't need this tread to read that, but.........


is fun, some times!

Ahh well, let the Stihl guys have their fun, they have to get excited about some old dead dude in their thread, they talk about the man, not the chainsaw, because their saws SUCK ASS. We talk about our saws, not some old dead dude, because our saws KICK ASS.

This is from a guy that has a Craftsman 2.3 and can't even spell it correctly. Whole lot of credibility there. Sure you talk about them because you can't spell. Furthermore you're not here talking about saws, you're here bashing live people,...Dude! Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing bad about a Craftsman saw nor a Husqvarna or Jonsered for that matter. Frankly, I've really never found, used, handled, or owned any saw that I have not liked in one way shape or form. Honestly, I hope to own some specific models of Husqvarnas and Jonsereds some time soon, just like I own models from other manufacturers, and I will. I find absolutely no fault in these other saws, just some of their owners. These happen to specifically be the ones that ridicule others and their choices just because they don't have the same likes, dislikes or preferences. Again, I'm not here to ruin the credibility of any saw. However, some of their owners are doing a fine job dis-crediting themselves, through their behavior, which ever camp they are from. Please don't tell me my saws suck, because they don't, neither do yours. If we want to sit around and talk about some dead guy that's our prerogative, not yours. If you want to compare, manufacturers, their history or saws by their individual merits that would be great. I'm sure I could learn a lot from the discussions and hope you might do the same. Why the hell I've wasted my time writing this, I'll never know, I'm sure it will fall on deaf ears.

You got a factory date from Stihl, now lets have it from Husky chainsaw?, not musket city, not motorbikes, not sewing machines, when did they open up a chainsaw factory??? Come on you know, tell me.

BTW I started this thread, now I'm helping it get posts, grrr, give me my answer!!,LOL

Tom, when did Harley start their first bike factory and when did Honda start their first one? Let me guess that Harley was first. Now, who makes the best bikes ? A 170kg 200hp CBR1000 or a vibrating monster with merely 60hp that doesn't idle ? (It now hits me how much Harley and the MS290 have in common, except for the hp..)
