intro to how transfers really work! Let’s talk chainsaws!

[@chrisjohnson5616]

Thank you for all of the wisdom about saw building. I built my 371xp using your expert advice. Just doing some port work and cutting the skirt off of the bottom of the cylinder plus a little red barn hot saw pop up 50mm piston, with ported muffler really brought that saw to life. That saw almost cuts with my 592xp but just doesn't have the torque. Thanks again please keep the videos coming.

[@famasmaster2000]

[@donjohnstone9685]

[@phillipanderson3715]

Thanks so much for sharing all your great knowledge over the years.

Hi Harvey, great to have another informative clip, all the best to you and family for Christmas, Cheers from NZ

[@anthonyyoung7344]

My dad still runs a original 1968 Stihl 041 it's like starting a Volkswagen with a pull rope.

[@fabzacres-blackcat]

Fascinating subject! It’s nice to be able to “lay it on thicker” in certain rpm ranges fo sure!

[@theironhorse6600]

It sure is!

[@brucehammond8673]

Enjoy all your instruction and demonstratons. Not being a builder, it's like hearing a foreign language. At least now, I understand a few 9f the words.

[@bradleyholewinski5635]

Uncle Harv, it's great you're back, we've missed you!

[@dallasjames97]

Great words from a wise man ! God bless you !!!

[@bigmoustacheal3295]

Like Harvey said. Ask the question no matter what it pertains to in your life. My Dad always said, "If you don't ask a stupid question, you will stay stupid!" Thanks again, Ironhorse.

[@traynegrau8248]

Lookin good Harvey! Lol ya combed your hair! Sounding like you should finally,very glad to see your health is back! And before I forget, Merry Christmas!!

[@CraigArndt]

God Bless, can’t wait for the next video.

[@matthewknight5641]

I love the china saws for what i do with them. If they would clone ported saws and actually get the machine and port work correct then they would smoke stock oem saws.

[@anthonyyoung7344]

Your dang right on the big bore I put a big bore kit on a 266 and changed it to a 272 and this thing will put cut my dad's Stihl 041

[@ryanfriars545]

Happy holidays Harvey! Looking forward to the build!

[@marcduclos9789]

You ever think about those kids you had apple fights with. Or when they talked you into running the sled down the farmers hill till the fence brought you to a thundering halt. It is Christmas time. My face hurts when I remember your story time. Merry Christmas to you and Barb and everyone. How are the flooded-out people doing these days.

[@brendenleach407]

Harvey l love your work your a amazing person I can see these videos are keeping you strong and want to you keep on going

[@billhacks]

I don't live anywhere near big wood and don't have big saws. The biggest one I have is a ms260 but I really like learning about what makes them tick. There's only a few channels that I watch because they have a positive attitude.

[@harrybrandt2462]

Looking good, Uncle Harv! Have a Merry Christmas !!

[@tomdenniston5933]

So glad to see you being you again!!

Great information Iron horse, will be waiting for the build video with my paper and pencil ready to take notes. Will send you pictures and video of my 041 farm boss project when it is completed, since you were the inspiration behind me doing it.

Merry Christmas Harvey

[@nateolmsted899]

My problem with saying that one of the Chinese Chainsaws being better than the next Chinese chainsaw is that they all seem to have the same problems

[@paulf2529]

All junk.

[@Eric-s5f4z]

Your stories are great Harvey, one of the most holsum channels out there❤

[@stephenhaney661]

Good video

[@jasonsytsma9367]

Hey ironhorse, you mentioned seeing that nice 372 but it was an xt.... id guess youre aware but if not, new in box 372xp, (non xt) still exist for about the same money. Reach out if youd like.

[@woodloveoutdoors]

Hello there sir I'm starting a 365 sp build for myself but I won't to do a mild build running stock numbers I'm doing some weight saving on the the piston and about a rist pin is there a lighter rist pin out there that you of off the top of your head that I can use I'm thinking of matching the cases to the cylinder too opening up the lower transfers I was just looking for your input on what else I can do on the saw.

[@larrywarner9314]

Harvey I live in Pennsylvania and the two Husqvarna dealership have the 372 xp xtorq models and the one place is $1350 , the second one is $1200 , and there is a third but he sells heavy equipment and he has both Stihl and Husqvarna and he's even more $1400

[@larryw5429]

If you can't cut the base you can't or shouldn't cut the squish because you will lose compression unless you use a different piston like 268/272 style piston and do some grinding and know your stuff with timing the ports!

[@kramerkid02]

Harvey, hello from just up the road in Hornell. I have a 2021 Husky 372xp OE I can bring by for you to check out if you want. Interesting saw for sure. Gilardoni cylinder, single piston ring. Let me know if you want me to stop by.

[@jonsalvehakedal2988]

[@BAMBAM3316]

I'm guessing exhaust port reliefs like a CR500.

Wavin a hand from the Midwest. Harv your looking good. I can tell you lost some pounds. Makes getting around a bit easier. And your heart loves it too.

[@academicmailbox7798]

The thing of investment of effort into the channel, it makes a tonne of sense. There's a worrying thing, I would have a concern about of influencer's in the timber area, . . over-doing it. It's not only 'the sticker price' of these new expensive tools, . . it's 'the total cost of ownership', or the 'cradle to grave' costs, which the timber community has to be honest about. Because folks who see a nice 500i or 592 on a free influencer's channel or stream, may walk away thinking or believing it's easy to own and run these items of equipment. Or it's about self sufficiency or such, or a new way to make a living. One has to be honest about this stuff, the economics of getting into saw tools for the vast majority of folks is prohibitively expensive. It's one of those monkey's on one's back, a lot more folks who really stand back and ask themselves, does it make sense to be doing this or not? And then, what KZbin did was it seemed to introduce a newer aspect to the 'thread mill' type of deal that owning expensive tools, without sound justification, it can be. Where guys seem to just land on to their channel, sporting some brand new, highly sophisticated piece of new gear, and then proceding tomshow us all how to cut log cookies. Making an argument, that 'the channel' is what is essential, . . that in order to feed 'the channel', that one requires the new shiny toy. This is dangerous, and it shouldn't be recommended. I've spent a lifetime doing financial management for self-employed trades and crafts people or builders, from the smallest up to the largest, underground and overground construction. And as far as 'total cost of ownership' goes, the two-stroke engine thing is one of the most hassle abundant, scary, cost prohibitive affairs that I've ever seen. And everything in the whole timber supply chain, whether it's mule logging, or small commercial band saw milling, is high capital cost intensive, back breaking, risky, unstable and thin margin. And KZbin has undoubtedly over glamourized that, and presented a reality that is more rosy than it is.

[@docwy8763]

I got a 372 x torq 4 yrs old ran twice if interested

[@KombuchaPants]

How much of saw work is science and how much is art?
