I've run all Husqvarna since I started logging in 1997. When I saw the 500i Stihl I had to try one. If I could afford it I would sell all my other saws and own nothing but 500i's. Keep up the good fight , nice to see REAL videos of people doing an honest days work.

I gave up Husqvarna saws and went to Stihl. We ran 562XPs and one 576XP, but after getting the buncher the 576 just sat. And the 562s start meaner than hell. Only one out of like 8 I bought new would start right. Even had new carbs swapped in under warranty. Once they started they ran fine, but yanking a saw over 7 times every single time you start it gets old in a hurry. The Stihl 362s start awesome. After they warm up, 1 pull all day. All I want is a saw that starts easy and seldom needs a wrench.

You're right that is some good looking timber. Take care and have a blessed day and I'll see you on your next video.

I was watching a different video of yours and I noticed you saying that’s what happens when you don’t get away from it quick enough and I noticed the dozer stuck on a root ball. The first time my dad tried to teach me to push a tree down with 450C I cut deep around the front and ramped some dirt up against the back and raised blade high as it would go and pushed and I was so impressed with myself I forgot the one thing he told me not to forget and that was reverse as quick as I possibly when it start to go and next thing I knew the root ball jacked the front end straight up and locked it solid with no slack to work with. I never heard the end of it until the day he died.

Also as soon as we got it unhung I took it up skid road and got to bouncing on some rock and the spring in the slueing clutch lever broke and where it was so step it fell back and locked the one side before I even knew what was going on and never been more scared on equipment than I was that day sliding sideways on a cliff at what seemed like a hundred miles an hour then it slammed into a sinkhole flipped on it’s side and me being panicked couldn’t think of what to do or how to jump either it kept pawing though that whole aspen itself heading downhill and flipped right back on it’s tracks. Wonder if something similar had ever happened to anybody else.

We just recently started back logging. Had a bunch of farm stuff going on but when we heard how poplar was selling we decided we had to get back in the woods. What are you getting a 1000 on poplar?
