Always liked this one.

Buckin Billy Ray has a 394 with sone sort of a little straight pipe that sounds great for a new saw. I enjoy his stuff but there’s no way possible to keep up with the amount of clips that he puts out.

For me, it would be a Mac SP60.

I’ve mentioned this saw before, my Dad had it when I was young, the saw that I learned to cut with. It was an early SP60, pre chain brake, yellow top, Helluva saw for it’s time.

Dad traded it off to a Friend, years ago, Mark passed away quite awhile back and Bonnie has remarried, and I have lost touch with her. My Hope is that old Mac is forgotten in a corner of her garage, and that some day, it will return home.
Dad will be 82 this year, and is still doing very well, but there is no avoiding the Future, I would Love to have his old saw back, it is kinda my Holy Grail to track down, may have to settle for “A” Mac SP60, instead of “THE” Mac SP60.
But I still haven’t given up Hope yet

I Loved the sound of that Ol Mac

Yes I commented on one of his videos what a great guy he is and the awesome messages he shares, but I find his content hard to follow. More often than not I’ll manage 5 minutes before turning it off or I’ll skip large sections to get to the content that interests me.

The MMWS ported 880 I had for a while. It went down the road just because I didn’t use it much and needed the money for some other stuff. But that saw sounded like an old dirt bike idling. It was ungodly loud, even at idle.

Just because we spoke about slow running engines, this 2 stroke runs at ZERO rpm, damn I love these Lanz Bulldogs

I like the sound of the old reed valve engines. My Homelite Super XL sounds unlike anything else in my collection. It's not the fastest, but I like the torque and sound when the bar is buried and I'm just letting her eat.

I do like the sound of a G5000 zenoah.

 

[Hoggwood]

Hard to pick only a few.

I see one of my 750’s was posted on the first page. All the 70’s VL’s whistled. I’ll add a 1001, too.



The 4x/5x/6x P-series. P41 chowing on some Doug.



Low miles 550 Flatback loping along



9xx and 76/130 series hold a nice note.

Got to be the 2100

Remington 660 barks good. Had an sL9 and that thing was LOUD for a small saw too.

Watch fire leave the cylinder.

Remington 660 barks good.

For some reason the sound of that saw reminds me of fall back when I was a kid when people were cutting firewood for the winter. What's the vintage of that saw?

Info online says 660 super started in 1963. I traded that saw towards another one and I'm working on getting it back.
