i did enough noodleing this weekend, enough that i think ive figured out why the 044 clears noodles a ton better than my 372.

i was paying close attention and started noticeing noodles wraping around the full wrap(xpw handle) this handle goes right under the center of the chain case.

the 044 has the stihl 3/4 wrap wich leaves the chain case clear to noodle. it clears probly 50 times better then 372
 
Heres a pic from 2 weeks ago. The Cherry was just a little bigger than I wanted to handle alone, easier to crosscut the blocks.
Not a bad afternoon considering the temp was in the mid 80's & high humidity.

If you are inserting ED*L's pics all I can see is red x's. I can see the pics fine in his post, they show up in the thread.


Mr. HE:cool:

I didn't see them so i asumed that they had not been properly inserted.

Yeah, if it's not oak, I take it straight to the burn pile and light a match. If it's oak and is not straight or has big knots in it, same thing, burn it. I go thru so much wood on the jobs that I get that it's just not worth keeping unless it's perfect. (Lot of hardwood here in Mississippi. Most of those are oak of some kind or another.)

Heck, I've got a half of a dump trailer of 2" - 6" oak branches from 4' - 6' that I am trying to get rid of. I can't quite bring myself to throw it away. I'm gonna try craigslist and see if I can get $50 or so for it.

I've still got 15-20 cords of oak rounds and quarters waiting to be split.

That sounds like one of those high class problems to me. :laugh:
