Hey Rob, I've got a 20" bar on mine but I have an 18" I was going to try. Both bars are 3/8 50 with full skip full chisel, what I use on most everything. Hope you had a good time at the gathering. Haven't seen tbone on here for awhile but I'm not here all the time hope all is well.

Stop over "there".
He is there most of the time.
The GTG was fun.
I want to get a 325 back on the 026.
But the 20" skip is interesting.
Would be better because I use it on the way to work and back. At night. In the rain and snow.
I gots to try that.

Haven't been over there for long time, thanks glad things OK. Skip chisel works good here, wood is usually clean, birch the hardest, fir and larch mostly. Thanks

I always keep it in my car.
And the 20" skip would help in emergencies.

When just cutting I grab the ported 044/046 with a 28" Stihl light weight bar. About the same weight as a 20" regular. Balances nice and I don't have to bend over. Lol

Hope all is good with you.

I've got a jillion saws but lately I been grabbing a little 034 super don't figure

 

[Stihl 041S]

It is a nice size.
I just need the 044/046 sometimes so I use that.

First I delimb with an MS200. Love that lil saw.

 

[Icehouse]

I have a 044 10 mm that a friend did for me, if I'm serious that's what goes with me. I hear you guys talking about using another saw for limbing, made no sense to me. Was viewing some pics posted couple weeks ago of some hard wood trees that had been fallen for wood, light came on, those dang things got lotsa limbs and good sized, firewood size. Most trees around here most of the limbs break off when you fall them if not you just touch them and they cut off flat. Limbing saws would be great to have. These trees I saw probably had a 1/4 of a cord of wood in the limbs.

 

[Stihl 041S]

Yeah. After the loggers go thru there will be a LOT of tops and they push a lot to the edge of the orchards.

Empty a couple of tanks in the MS 200 rear handle before going back with the bigger saw.

Then set out a bunch of old 25 bushel bins and have the pickers load them up.

Push brush. Wait a week. Burn. Plant more fruit trees.

Slide back to pg 2, everybody probably watching the NASCAR race at Dover or out making good use of their saws

Just getting home from the Lake, just beat getting back before the rain started heavily.

Just looked at a Canadian map, looks like you live in a real interesting area, was surprised there are so many lakes. Looks kind of rocky in some areas and large tracts of good farm land. What's your closest town where you live.

Yes, we have it all here, much like Robin does, he`s just cross the Fundy from us. We have more lakes though and I love to travel them, scenery like out of this world all around us. Dartmouth is just a 15 mins drive from me, Halifax is just across the harbor from Dartmouth.

Good job Mike!!!!

 

[pioneerguy600]

Currently whoarding firewood fer the next cold spell myself at both locations. Camp is getting a cord or so of mixed firewood, anything from pine,spruce birch and maple going into the pile. The big river above me delivers an assortment of trees each spring down to the lake, I get there early and snagg some good specimens before the summer bonfire crowd arrives.
