Chainsaws Torque vs Rpm old school big blocks vs new school power

[@Mikzone-zb6jk]

I Love old power saws!! hell all power saws

[@SkylerStutzman]

Thanks for the video man, always cool to see different saws

[@austingoleman9431]

Love the 61 have that same saw never gives me any problems and plenty of power

[@aeridyne]

I'm sure the Pioneer could have gone faster with heavy spike use. Ton of torque and low rpm on the old Pioneers. That was cool to watch. Great video. He say that old 2100 could run up to a 60" bar? Wow. That would make a difference. I'd like to see 372XP w/ a 60" bar vs that 2100 w a 60" bar, haha! I liked the 55 vs the old nice running Xl-12 at the end there too.

Thanks for watching my vid, glad you enjoyed it, we had a blast playing around that day! Great idea🧐, I like you style! The old 12 is a sweet little cutter, even with an aggressive hungry raker, filed a bit on the lower side! Lol!!

Have had a 55 Rancher for ~20 years. Ran great for 19 years and after a carb rebuild this year, still going strong. Able to do just about everything with it. Family has the newer Husky's (homeowner versions of various sizes) and the new plastic housings aren't nearly as durable.

Please tell me what is a big block chainsaw? I have been running saws for over 40 years. Never heard of such a thing. I call the little ones tomato slicers. Back in the '70s there was a couple ads for homelite chainsaws. A little old granny was slicing tomatoes in one and a loaf of bread in another one. Ever since I refer to small saws as tomato slicers or bread slicesrs. 🤣🤣🤣

[@tfloutdoors327]

🤣 the smalles called tomato slicers! We call them big blocks saws due to the large bar mount that the larger cc saws require. Almost like when you hear an old hot rod pull up, and you know that it’s running a big block of some sort, just by the sound of it, but you have to ask the guy… just to check out his ride, lol. Saws don’t have a bell housings just cases. Must be a hot rod thing 🤣🤣🤣

[@slpc30]

WOW what an incredible video thank you

[@OldSkoolF]

The Saw is Family.

Ill never understand the point in a skip tooth chain. Yes it's less weight, but not very much weight, and at the same time its less teeth that are cutting wood.

[@tfloutdoors327]

Thanx for the comment! The skip chains have less drag in the cut, on a larger type bar, rather than a full comp chain, which can actually cut faster and smoother with a much more powerful unit. Also with the skip chain, there is less teeth to sharpen when the chain get dual, if your cutting a bit of fire wood the skip is going to be your friend. Hope this helps!

I was afk but when i heard husquarna 455 rancher i instantly knew what chainsaw it is based on the whistling screaming sound, i have it and it is abeast

[@ARCOFJUPITER]

No Stihl 090 ?

[@tfloutdoors327]

I wish we had one to run, it would’ve been out in the mix as well.🤘

[@ARCOFJUPITER]

@@tfloutdoors327 my dad said very few guys could " arm pull " it to start. One hand holding the bar and one hand pulling the cord. It was mostly on the ground, foot on the body and pulling the cord.

[@tfloutdoors327]

@@ARCOFJUPITER I believe it. I’ve got a couple with fresher top ends on them that are that way, a 394, & the ported garbage saw build, 372 with a 52mm piston kit, very strong saws

[@woofy548]

Need to use recommended bar lengths on these saws. The old saws don't even compare to the new saws when it comes to power/ weight ratio.

[@everlysuniquetimbersawshop]

28” is too long for that 61, 24” max with full skip (in soft wood). You’ll burn that old beauty up.

[@tfloutdoors327]

I love the 61, one of my favorites, I’ve been working on the guy to sell it to me, but he just laughs! It’s just a hobby saw at this point, with a 272 top end, and some other mods done to it as well, so she should be able to pull the longer bars!✌️🤘

[@liamb.6251]

I used to run my stock 61 with a 28 in, full house in softwood (sometimes hardwoods but rarely with the 28), they can do it just fine if you know how to run them and keep the rpms up
