SOTF: Stihl 056av Super and 051av

[@ruggedtimber1743]

Those 2 saws are awesome. They sure rip through the wood like a hot knife in butter. Thanks for sharing Stay safe

[@sawsonthefarm]

That is my most viewed video to date! Lots of people love those old Stihl's!

Thank you!

Bought an 041av about 40 years ago from my boss at the time , cut a ton of wood and with a 36" bar cut a ton of ice trapping minnows and digging bugs . It served me well till it finally croaked. Daily use for over 10 years. God knows how old it was . I use it at work before I bought it .

[@sawsonthefarm]

I have an 041 I just haven’t had time to get it running yet!

[@buck.rudy7]

Just finished building a 056 magnum it runs great with lots of pull. I have started on another one but i am going to machine the cylinder and port it, excited to see the gains. They are great saws that were built heavy, nice video with the vintage muscle!

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thank you! Good luck with your build, I hope it rips!

[@buck.rudy7]

Thank you! Keep the content coming!

[@sawsonthefarm]

It’s been a long time since I posted anything. I’m hoping to get my mill started up soon and make a video!

My grandfather used a 056 mag 2 & a homelite 925xl in production work back when those saws were new to the game & would tell me the 051 was the 064 & the 056 was 066 in its time.

[@travelswithbenny3328]

Nice! Just picked up a 056 for 85$, needs rope, gas cap, air filter cover, dogs and who knows what else lol. Said "it ran when it was put in the barn" we'll see. Good video!

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thanks! They are worth fixing up! Great saws!

[@diggindiggenit6540]

Way cool just subscribed, this evening I took a long drive and was lucky to pick up a 051av for 150 and it came with two long bars one on the saw, I can't wait to see if i can get it up and running like yours, i got to say it's a heavy beast just from picking it up, fun city

[@sawsonthefarm]

Good deal! Don’t worry about the weight as long as you’re having fun while using it you won’t even notice it.

[@Machinesvehiclesvariouscontent]

Very nice video.

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thank you! Very much appreciated!

[@EightWheelsRollin]

I'd have a smile on my face all day long running those saws! Two killer saws! They both sound great, I'd take either one...but I really like that 056!!

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thanks! My favorite out of the two is the 051, it’s just a beast! The sound is unbelievable!

[@EightWheelsRollin]

That 051 is definitely a beast! Your vid pushed me over the edge, I'm picking one up this weekend! Ha ha

[@sawsonthefarm]

@EightWheelsRollin that’s awesome! lol! Glad the vid inspired you!

[@robertskilton9295]

Damn that old 51 is a very sweet runner

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thank you! It’s sounds so tough at an idle!

[@opictia]

Couple nice ole case punchers 👌

[@sawsonthefarm]

Lol! Never heard that expression before! Thanks!

[@opictia]

@@sawsonthefarm long stroke saws lol

[@sawsonthefarm]

Yeah that 051 sounds like a dirt bike!

[@outfitr9703]

I cut a lot of wood with our 056, still have it.

[@sawsonthefarm]

Good old saws!

[@markojanko3000]

I have 051 av electronic.. beast

[@davorvrban5517]

Imam obadvije prave pile

[@tomintexas817]

you should check out the muffler cover I made for my 075av it's stainless steel and has a smiley face😊

[@sawsonthefarm]

That's pretty cool! Nice job!

[@brianeastman3547]

Looks like the 041 Farm Boss

[@sawsonthefarm]

Similar, just bigger!

[@beaver5847]

Any advice on rebuilding an 056 super?

[@sawsonthefarm]

I know OEM parts are getting harder to find as far a cylinders and pistons.Bearings shouldn’t be an issue to find. Glad to hear your keeping another classic alive! Love it!

[@eduardocastaneda8697]

Wich one is better?both are pretty strong but the 051 doesn't have a chain break some people said that the 056 was more reliable

[@sawsonthefarm]

Their really two totally different saws in a bunch of ways. The 056 is 87cc with a 54mm bore and a 38mm stroke. The 051 is 89cc with a 52mm bore and a 42mm stroke. Although close In displacement the 051 has more pulling torque due to the longer stroke. The 056 is significantly lighter than the 051. I’ve felled some with the 056 and a 32” bar and it works well. I’ve always considered the 051 to be more of a stumper or milling saw it’s just so grunty! No matter how you compare them they are both great old saws that both have proven reliable to me. They are also tons of fun to run!

[@mikebenning896]

Good ole saws , sadly so slow and heavy compared to todays hot rods. Good job

[@sawsonthefarm]

Thanks 👍

[@sawsonthefarm]

But still a ton of fun to run!

[@opictia]

What I like about them is I get more feedback through the saw the new ones feel squishy and hard to read a pinch.

[@sawsonthefarm]

I agree, your definitely more connected to the cut! Lol!

[@kennydillon7635]

Keep them old saws running

[@sawsonthefarm]

I know they don’t perform as good as modern saws but I still enjoy running them.

[@manuelaabadgonzalez7923]
