Making a bench for around the campfire. This little saw never let me down!!!

The ms250 was my first saw I really bought for myself. Those saws have alot of heart. They are workers.

[@IndianaDoug]

I was surprised🤣

[@johnw5242]

You can cut lumber by hand, too. Once you've done that anything north of the Ryobi Pocket saw is AMAZING! lol It looks like you got yourself some nice, straight boards with a minimum of fuss. What more could a fella hope for, eh? "Get it done" gets it done. Saying, "Oh, that won't work - it's not big enough" is a politician's specilty, not a workin' man's. Looks PERFECT to me, Doug! 💪🏁👍

[@Brian2bears]

Awesomely pushing the envelope! I 💘 it!!!!

[@Robgojo_roblox]

For me, I honestly think the 40-50 cc mark is the best choice for most people 👍

[@Special311980]

I practiced making planks from a 5' long log with an electric corded black and decker 14" saw and it worked good took avout 5-10 mins but good practice

[@toddburrell9181]

First journey through milling for me was with my 445 Husqvarna. Everyone said it couldn't be done and I still have the first ash slab to prove it 😊 Good Luck and happy milling!

[@IndianaDoug]

Thanks bud. Got a little Alaskan mill I’m about to assemble.

[@CSMtheMariner]

445 for the win! This was exactly the Intel I needed :)

[@cajun3197]

Poor little guy took his beating well I must say

[@jamesgroves5294]

WOW! Nice job Doug!!

[@IndianaDoug]

It was fun, just messin around, but it worked 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@samadams9557]

Not for long. My biggest saw is 80 cc’s and it struggles on the bigger stuff. 25” oak log, 12 feet long and the Alaskan mill is a tougher job that pulling off the skins for a post.

[@clem95627]

If you're going to use a saw to rough cut I'd mix my oil a little heavy to protect your saw. I cut some Maple about that size with an 044 and it worked fine. Keep your chain sharp and take your time.

[@justinweaver8787]

Gettn it done thats the point id say its a win!!

[@nathanslawnsandgardens]

👍👍👍

[@WoolysWorld]

Nice

[@nicholasalexander8505]

I like Stihl but for saws I go with Husqvarna

[@user-zr7oc9rm5p]

무척 간편하고 성능도 좋은듯 합니다.가성비 짱!

[@IndianaDoug]

I agree👍🏻

[@j.chrisbeck7492]

Sure it can, just a bit at a time.

I have a granberg Alaskan 36" mill attachment and a knockoff for spare parts, my Husqvarna 3120xp is on order, then a 72" inch slab mill will be next. Cuz i need a hobby

[@IndianaDoug]

It’s a good one to have😁

[@1johnnygunn]

@@IndianaDoug it will be a great pickup line: My "slab" is 6 wide.

[@1johnnygunn]

@IndianaDoug additionally with minor exceptions I'll be cutting all the lumber for my new home

[@IndianaDoug]

They ain’t giving lumber away in 2024, that’s for sure.

[@canadiancutterschannel6787]

Right......

[@Aaron_A_Lynch]

45cc is a little small🤦🏼‍♂️

100% (thanks again, fixed👍🏻)

[@yamahapeanut44]

How well does the little milling bracket work?

[@IndianaDoug]

Honestly, I was surprised at how well this thing worked. It’s super cheap and easy to use.

[@yamahapeanut44]

@@IndianaDoug I bought one. Its a bit of a learning curve but for rough cut lumber its a neat little thing. My 391 and a ripping chain dont seem too happy about it though. May get me a cheaper large saw for the milling.

[@JKSawShop]

It can it is just a lot slower

[@IndianaDoug]

Yessir. Kept her at half throttle on first pass, then wide open on 2nd and last. Surprisingly smooth and true.

That was half throttle. It did pretty good after that initial cut. Making a bench for around the fireplace.

My 250 nearly burned up, it gets hot and won’t start. No more Sthils for me. Team Husqvarna. What was that plate you have there?

[@IndianaDoug]

Some deal I found at Menards. You hook it to your bar, and run it on top of a 2x4. Worked pretty good🤣
