Saw Builder’s Opinion of a Stihl Clone

[@Finom1]

Charles Brisco, you are an inspirational leadership example for all generations to see what true work ethics, integrity, pride in workmanship, humility, true determination, persistency = continual second efforts and morality looks like in action for all of us to model and follow...:) Bless you for that:)

Great video! I have an old 038 so I will be watching to see how this turns out.

I have two of the first generations the neo tech 872. The first one I got had issues with the chain adjuster. The second one they had fixed the problem

Great content! Really enjoyed this tear down!

Nice teardown vid! Very surprised to see an OEM carb and filter. The Neotec 066 clone I did had the paint flaking off/chipping in the crankcase.

I've herd that this one seems okthere

[@matthewknight5641]

My ns872i ran great from my perspective but i put a pop up in ot from little red barn and lightened it to match the factory piston weight . Opening up the windows also . It seems to be much stronger now and i cant wait to get back home to see what it can actually do in the wood. Id love to port it next. What do you think about a big bore kit for this saw?

[@dynojoemods2764]

Nice teardown, curious to see what is next for it. Never seen an 038 clone. Or 038 in general. Black stuff could be blowby from the test fire.

[@IndianaDoug]

That’s what I was thinking as this was straight from the factory. This model is certainly my favorite clone by far. Now if they just get the cylinders down better a guy could have a really good 72cc machine for cheap.

[@Chucky-b7v]

Overall, what is your general opinion on this saw? Apart from the head and piston. I would love to see a follow up once you have cleaned those two items up. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@CharlesBrisco]

Muffler an a better topend it prolly be a great saw

[@Chucky-b7v]

@@CharlesBrisco thanks Charles

[@JKSawShop]

I’m a fan of the Stihl 038

[@troy3052]

great video! please show more tear down videos

[@williamgrissom1995]

It's not the saw I have. I have the one with the flip caps on oil and fuel, the side chain tensioner and the decompression button. If I had to I could likely clean up some of the cylinder ports, but not a real port job. I saw a fix for the choke flap in the air filter if it causes and issue and I saw your fix on the chain tensioner to get rid of what limits the how far it will move to tighten the chain. I'm guessing I better take off the starter assembly to check and correct any imperfections that might destroy the pull cord. I'm on a limited income so I can't just replace parts with OEM parts, even if I could find them right now. Though I wish I could. Thank you very much for the link to this video. It will likely be a big help even though the saw isn't exactly like mine. 😎👍

I enjoyed the teardown it's got to be done so might as well film it,with that cylinder that bad makes me wonder if the plating has any chance of holding up even for home owner use you just never know I have put new pistons on cylinders so worn that you could see through the plating and thay worked for years with a good gas mix I sure enjoy your channel

[@harryharry3193]

Thanks for letting us see it. Salute for that. I have NO interest in buying any of these knock offs. I understand the attraction for some. I havent seen/heard anything like this on a echo nor Husq in the cyl. get what ya pay for remains in effect.

[@KillingerUSA]

This was cool to watch!

[@IndianaDoug]

Made me feel like a rookie🤣

[@sean7.399]

Would you recommend this chainsaw for someone that doesn't cut wood every day but when I do I need bigger saw ... Keep up the good work 👏 like watching your chainsaw video content ..

[@CharlesBrisco]
