I love my sthil 021 , very dependable, lightweight and powerful for its size.

My dad bought this saw brand new in 2011. We dont use it much, only about 60 to 80 hours yearly but since 2011 we havent had a single fault or failure with it. Everything is extremely sturdy, only problem with it is when it sits for a while the oil leaks out of it but when you drain the oil it isnt too bad. Really good saw, very beginner friendly i would say

Outstanding review! Thank you for the thoughtful insight.

Very good demonstration with common sense that doesn’t always get passed on. Have one of these old tack hammers, great for hanging pictures but never knew the purpose of the slotted end, before!

Do you have any views on the new 212 c-be stihl? Can’t find much info on it yet - as it is newer I believe

Looks like a handy tool. I use something similar called a Hula Hoe.

We had the 025 at home, but now I saw this one on bazar for just 150€. Well I'm probably going for it!

I love mccullochs, own 2 PM 310s and a Euromac S41, i am painfully hipster so i really didin't care for stihl because it is so popular, that was until recently. I got a fire damaged -94 021 (same year as the S41) and i must say the build quality is remarkable, the plastics felt really nice, the throttle lock/choke is really nice, the ergonomics are great, and best of all, it starts easily runs well despite being burnt so badly that the chain oil tank has a hole in it. Now maybe it is because my Macs spent a decade being abandoned in such conditions where the cylinders seized but atleast this Stihl saw is also lovely to work on and repair

I bought the Matrix kit a few weeks ago for $180 because I was trying to replace the blades on my riding mower and couldn't get either of the nuts off. I never used an impact driver before, but I knew I needed one to get the job done. I have a 3 year old $49 B&D drill that's way underpowered for anything beyond the basics, but it uses the same 20V batteries, so I was incentivized to stay in the B&D ecosystem and came across this. As a fairly new homeowner collecting an arsenal of tools, I think getting 6 tools in one with the modularity to add more tools for cheap, plus gaining an extra battery for both drills, is a pretty good deal for the price. When I tried the impact driver on the blades, at first I thought something was wrong because I expected to feel some kickback in the drill and holding the blade with my hand. It felt almost identical to my other drill with the clutch at 1. Once I gave it a few more seconds, they each started to come loose. I'm very impressed, though that's more with respect to impact drivers in general than this particular model. I've yet to find a use for the other tools, but I know I will sooner or later as I come up with projects.

Nice video - I had to do this last week on my BSA and my HW97 (Think you US fellas call 'em Beemans?)

Good video - I need to do something similar to my BSA airrifle beech stock. I was concerned about whether I needed to sand it down first (don't want to do that) . Thankyou

Thankyou for taking the time to make this informative video. God Bless!!

What size is your jacket mate?

The chainsaw comparison video I think your talking about is done by ProjectFarm

THANK YOU FOR THE INFO BROTHER. VERY MUCH NEEDED IN MY DECISION MAKING.

CUSTOMER SERVICE AT SOME OF THESE PLACES IS UNACCEPTABLE. IF I HAVE TO GRAB A SALES REP, THEN IM NOT GOING TO BUY FROM THAT ESTABLISHMENT!

BIG BOX STORE MOWERS = GET EM OUT AND SELL THEM TO ANYONE WHO WILL BUY THEM.

'PromoSM' 😅

get a FISKAR pickaroon, they work great and don't fall a part.

I enjoyed my first attempt. Thank for watching! BGB

Thats very cool. Thanks for the vid. Take care

don't scrub off the blueing with that steel wool. I hear using copper steel wool will protect the blueing.

Use it all the time. Best ever.

I also use 2 at a time. I load on a trailer with the mesh ramp down so I can walk the pieces right onto the trailer 2 pieces at a time so I can get loaded twice as fast while keeping the center of gravity low around ankle height and never having to bend over. Great video!

Thanks for the content... wonder why they made that mobile one 650w and the table combo unit belt/spindle 450w lol ... is triton better than wen inyho??

Thanks for watching! BGB

Great video 👍

A brushless update to this tool would be AMAZING!

Hell I own this same Stihl 211 cut down 2 48year old pine trees that were a little over 50 feet tall and little over 30 inch girth trunks at the bottom all I can say about Stihl chain saws is there a hell of product worth every dam penny

I've never owned a pickaroon. I'm 43 and have been cutting wood as long as I can remember. Explain to me why I need to suddenly purchase 2 of these because you say so.

I think the powder version might be better because you can easily level it and feather the edges with a paintbrush. But let's be real, I'm no cement expert either.

I own this saw. This is the Saw you use to limb the tree that you cut down with a BIGGER CHAINSAW. It's good for cutting 4" limbs

Good review ! I couldn't imagine making firewood without my pickaroons(both short&long handle). It's a great backsaver, wish i found it 20 years ago... Thanx for sharing !

Just found your channel and subscribed. Nice work. I can do with one.

Yes! It's unfortunate, should have learned about these 44 years ago....made mine out of axe, flat beak on bottom, shaped up like birds beak, works great on all woods

I picked up a tack hammer at a yard sale many years ago. It is handy to have in the tool collection, even if I only use it a few times a year.

I’m 70 and I have one my dad bought me, still works great. Do they still make these?

I have some black impact sockets, and the lettering has worn off. There are smooth so I don't think this will work. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Great video. I've been using a 1 inch wet/dry sandpaper hook and loop for my dremel. The kit goes from 60 to 10000. Ive been able to shine things up pretty quickly.

we call them a cheat or cheater bar or pipe

liked your video , I have box full of buffs like you have and had no idea what grit they were or what order the colors went. thanks you helped me out

Great advice! From experience is always best. Thanks.

I was not familiar with these wheels. I've seen people use a cotton wheel and apply compound. I will have to look into it. Thanks.

Extra leverage is always nice!

That would be called a "Cheater" or "Cheater bar' A breaking bar is a tool specifically designed to break something loose such as the breaking bars used on sockets.

Thanks for the video. I’m going to try it on bandsaw small boxes.

You deleted my comment ?

Thanks for the video! Am looking for a power drill that's smaller and lighter for my mom who just needs something for simpler tasks around the house, and was looking at this one. Your video helped sell me on getting it.

Was recently given this saw. Was maintained very well. Had it started up after some pulling. Idling well. Put it away for a few days, now I can't get it started. It was suggested I try 40:1 and a new plug. Thoughts?

Thanks for the review. I saw this belt on Amazon and your video is the first to come up in the search. Excellent info.
