Pics aren't the best but one looks like an 070. Those are big saws!What is that saw on the back right, he must have painted it no i don't think i have ever seen a Stihl with black covers. i think 4000 could be a touch high though haha

Ballpark, how many cords has that bar seen?I use the 260 to cut trees down and limb. I use my 440 mainly to cut rounds. The logs usually sit a year or so and are pretty dry. Latest logs are mostly bigger stuff up to 20". I don't grease the tip very often but I might have to change that plan. I also plan to keep a can of Fluid Film or something and spray the bar once in awhile to help abit too. I do pour extra bar oil on the bar but it doesn't help the wear points for long. Looks like time for a new bar. Good thing I keep spare stuff in stock.

Quite the tree there, what species is it?SVK, too many saws so have no idea on how many cord are thru that bar. I'm guessing less than 2 years because I usually buy the bars in pairs and there was only one left. I also cut a lot of wood at 32" so only half the cutting. I think the main issue is that I cut so much at one time the bar just gets so hot it melts the oil. When I refill oil it pretty much turns to water from the hot saw. I think I will keep the 660 handy and switch saws or even at least switch out the bars. I plan to cut the rest of the pile in one go so it's gonna get hot. I did a rough count on some before and after pictures of the logs that I cut on Saturday night and sunday, I cut approx. 80 logs x 12' long into 16" pieces so 640 cuts. That's a lot of heat, and 3 sharpenings. I would have cut the whole pile but I went for a little ride with my grandson. On Saturday morning I dug out a water hole for the deer and turkeys in the bush. My Dad dug the original one over 50 years ago. View attachment 527868 View attachment 527869 View attachment 527871
The Echo guy is Zehr's Sales and Manufacturing in Millbank. Not sure if he sells tools or not but he does have rental equipment. He also sells stuff at a few sales that I go to. There is also Millbank Hardware which is huge and sells pretty much any tool you can think of.
Not sure who that is that is selling the stuff on Kijiji, the address in just south of Aintree trailer park and just off Lake Range Drive. Nice to have better pictures and individual prices even though I have enough of everything.
wowzer, I just clicked on the link from woodnazi and then googled the address.
I'm planning to Fluid Film the bar more often. As soon as this damn online auction is done I'm heading out to cut some more rounds. Bidding on a stump grapple that I really don't need. Aero Marine auction. Damn just lost the stump grapple but have high bid on a brush grapple. 63 minutes left til closing unless some other idiot bids on it.
