[@TheMaclays]

Nice to hear your happy with it. Take care Pete.

[@phillyfathead]

Thanks for the honest and forthright review!!

[@Chucky-b7v]

Hi Pete, I have only just purchased one of those the other day, it should arrive in the next day or two. Hopefully I get good use out of it as you have with yours. Thanks for a great review.

That has been a good saw for you! I always like seeing you cut with it. Runs really good. Like seeing your wood cutting videos. Have a Blessed Day Pete! Justin

Thats great that the Holzfforma husqvarna clone has held up great for you. I keep meaning to do a review of my Holzfforma G660 that has been great but not without its issues too. Nice job buddy 👍

[@AppalachianLumberjack]

Thanks I'm trying too decide which clone too get I just want the biggest one with the least problems for the lowest price😅

[@everydaywithmenick]

@@AppalachianLumberjack my Holzfforma G660 has been great, i have broken a few starter pawls and assembly but the saw itself has been awesome and started its life chainsaw milling and it still starts fine. Ill keep an eye out which one you went with.

​@everydaywithmenick I've heard if you take up the slack in the pull rope before you pull it, it can help a lot. Do you do that?

[@kdcustoms1272]

​​@@AppalachianLumberjack I'm only a few tanks in with my 660. Everything seemed great at first, but when I went in my shed a few days later, all I could smell was gas. The fuel line to the carb and the 90 degree elbow it connects to the tank with wasn't the best quality and was the cause of the leak. $13 worth of stihl parts fixed it. The saw has already paid for itself tho, so im very happy with it.

[@kdcustoms1272]

​​@@everydaywithmenick also do you use the decompression release? I noticed mine starts with fewer pulls not using it but obviously it's harder to pull and will put more work on the starter assembly. I ordered a husqvarna decompression valve because many have said it's better.. idk it was $22 figured I'd try it😂

[@MrLouisPoole]

Best guess, how many hours do you thnk you have run this saw? Thanks Great info.

[@TressaZimmerman]

Dang that is great brother, you get some bad with the good

[@horacesawyer2487]

Now wait a minute, your other video I just watched said 1 year review and that one was posted 3 three years ago. The Chineesians must provide you a time machine too. Nice.

[@melissafini7218]

I saw that too

[@ryanjames170]

I noticed that too but I also noticed the age difference in the guy too, must of reposted it

[@cheaphomesteading]

Also you waer the same clothes...

[@joesphreed827]

I bought one a month ago cut about 40 cords with it and it won't hold a tune for the life of me and today I cut a cord and it did its bullshit but I wasn't able to get a tune on it I'm hoping I didn't cook the piston ring and hopefully a carburetor will fix it

[@garymcmullin2292]

likely suspects for your problem are a leaking decompression valve and carburetor. It also could be a leaking crankshaft seal but that I have not hears many reports of that. I have heard guys say get a neotec carburetor. Myself I searched out the OEM carburetor, spendy yes but I will not have problems. The quality control of chinese saws and saw parts is terrible, for some guys they are having success with the neotec carbs.

[@douglashaner6802]

Almost $1,000 for a new Husqvarna. $325 for yours on Amazon. I dont know the screws or bolts to replace but doubt they are too pricey. My only concern is some clones require a lot assembly know how. Still this is tempting.

[@doglegjake6788]

Thanks for sharing a cool video.

[@cheaphomesteading]

Thanks for watching

[@TonicTonio]

What fuel mix did you run in it? Website says 25:1

[@evagslid]

Is Farmertec and Holfzforma the same?

[@cheaphomesteading]

Ya there the same.If you order it on the Holfzforma website it comes Holforma branded but it also has branding of Farmertec and definitely parts ordered from them are Farmertec branded. Thanks for watching

[@davidthomas5997]

Thank you for the review. Especially given over time and use. I havent heard anyone say anything bad about any of the clone saws i am hoping to pick up something in the 70cc class. Preferably a Stihl clone.
