Wow, what a saw. Thanks Jack. Nice work on that power house.

[@kutzbill]

I have some older saws, and one is the old Stihl 09. It's a beast.

[@kuiperroerdink1670]

the power on that is amazing. almost sounds like it could use lower rakers haha

[@joehackett9471]

Awsome saw! Pre flippy caps Stihls are my favorite!

[@timkimball307]

Not very often I need that much saw.. But man do want one ! Nice work! Thing is a beast!

[@rowdyropp7464]

Thats some magic youve done Dr. Chainsaw!

[@WKZworks]

I think that saw's paid for itself.

[@allenhuling598]

Man, that thing pulls! Nice work, Jack!

[@speedandmarine9066]

That is really getting it done! That fir is probably pretty darn stringy too and that 88 doesn't even slow down! My 461 would probably run and hide!

[@hotsaws101]

I think that your "481" would be surprising on the piece of fir Mr. Speed. I was back at it here a few weeks ago. I didn't have the time to run my Torquer 461, which I fully regret. I know its been awhile, but, thanks for stopping by.

Hey Jack it's cousin Bill here. You remember me right. My cousin's wife's stepson from her second marriage is a Beeler. Since you port saws for free for family members when should I show up at your house?

[@hotsaws101]

"Cousin Bill" - yah, hahaha. Sure hope your charm and good looks are exceptional.....

[@vkarabin]

hotsaws101 Hello again!.. enjoy your video’s!!..with your experience what saw do you recommend for taking down some “fatties” on occasion but not very often along with general use and what chain do you recommend??.. looking for a “one saw does all” if you know what i mean...I see you seem to talk about the 460 allot.. thanks for the advice!!"

First time I saw you run an 088

[@hotsaws101]

skySRP hi. I owned several 084s and a 3120 in the 80's. For the most part, all we used in the old growth on the coast. A 42 was the shorty bar. Only have a few pictures from that time. Thanks for watching.

[@brdski_2238]

hotsaws101 You are really old school, I bet you remember many big old growth trees. I consider you the best on youtube about tree falling

[@hotsaws101]

skiSrp PRE hi. I would consider myself in the middle of the pack for both size of old growth cut and expedient-ness. I just was lucky enough to be in a good place at the right time to get a hold of some pretty good sized trees and some really interesting ground. Thanks for watching.

[@cornedoevendans617]

would it be posible to see some off those photo's in a video? im dutch and a 42 is considerd as a monstously big bar here. our stihl dealer only sells a 3 foot bar with an 880. thanks for the vid

Good grief!!! That there boys is a BEAST!!!

[@brendaconklin6576]

[@chipsofstihl7538]

Once you have a quality saw with lots of power, it’s all about the bar and chain.

[@brettblack7049]

And the operator lol.

[@liammulligan4355]

Do the modifications reduce the life of the saw or how come the manufactures do the mods as standard ? I recently purchased a 3 yr old 461 .thats why i watch your vids . Learning a lot from you . Thanks

[@hotsaws101]

Liam hi. Longevity, to a large degree from my perspective anyway, is operator related. Specifically, the maintenance habits, the mix oil choice, condition of the chain/s, and proper jetting for the localé and especially the chains. A little bit of my experience with psycho level saws is a follows: 6.5 to 7 million board feet cut over a 7 year time span with one of my 390s - all original, down to the plastics. Over a five year period (5+ million), I wore out four 372 bottom ends with a big bore topend I made myself in '01. Both were what I would call the standard psycho zipkit of today. Heavily modified, reshaped combustion chambers, etc., etc. Some would suggest that a modded saw has longevity issues. I don't necessarily agree that a zipped saw/s doesn't last as long. They have emission and noise constraints. Thanks for watching and hope your New Years is good.

[@woody912a]

Wish I had a context to compare fir to dry oak, hickory or locust. Cut a dead mulberry yesterday might be the hardest wood I ever cut. Except for a dogwood! But hey usually don't make 40" dbh

[@hotsaws101]

woddy912a hi. Fir, generally, is far less dense than oak or locust. But, as with all things, it depends on a few factors. Where it is growing on the hill will make a difference. The elevation a tree is growing makes a huge difference out on the west coast. 500' elevation wood of the same species cuts nothing like it's counter part growing at 4, 5, 6 7 , up to 9K. Take white fir. At sea level it melts. At 5k with the same chain, it is rattling the fillings out "ur" head....... Thanks for watching.

[@timh5093]

What kind of rpm range is that saw in the wood

[@hotsaws101]

Tim hi. I never checked. I built this saw to pull hard down low and wield a long bar with authority. This is the short bar that he has. My guess on the rpms is ~ 12, 12.5 while cutting based on the sound of the engine. Thanks for watching.

[@nuahsb2411]

I watch every one of your videos.. thank you... I'm just a weekend warrior.. Should come to my home state. PA. (U know what state TAX TAX TAX TAX TAX TAX TAX TAX))))and run one of your saw on a big oak or Hickory

Minha Vida É Viver Na Estrada Mauricio & Mauri Composição: Ivone Ribeiro / Joel Marques No dorso do asfalto, dentro do meu caminhão Sou caminhoneiro, eu sou peão A minha vida é livre feito um pássaro no ar Eu não tenho pressa de chegar O laço da saudade não me prende o coração A cada dia eu vivo uma paixão Eu solto na banguela, deixo a vida me levar Amando sem querer me apaixonar Minha vida é viver na estrada Em meu caminho brilha o sol da emoção O meu coração é fera que nunca foi domada No rodeio de uma paixão Nas curvas do caminho vou deixando a solidão No rádio toca sempre uma canção De dentro da cabine sou pedaço do motor Piso fundo com cuidado no acelerador No rastro dos pneus deixo o passado para trás E a cada dia eu vivo um pouco mais Domando o meu destino com a fibra de um peão Nas rédeas firmes do meu caminhão

[@nippinkoi8924]

Wow power 👍👍🇬🇧

[@Fabzacres]

Seems like cut 2 was a few sec quicker thru the wood - saw throws a nice roost !!!... I see a lot of these “wildwood” competitor builds that cut fast for 30seconds and then “heat sink” and lose about 15-20% power ... STIHL have 7:59:30 to go to finish the day !!!! THIS CAT wants a saw that cuts and performs ALL-DAY - and Hotsaws101 delivers ! Don’t want a quick Johnny for the camera that loses “steam” after 3 cuts like some other low-budget “port-work” !

[@burtvhulberthyhbn7583]

I ran one of these with a 32 in bar in solid dry dead oak. It's just an outrageous saw.

Did you go from an .404 to a 3/8 with the same drive sprocket?

I think cousin Gary will like er! Never ran a double snowman myself as I never needed to, however I just helped my uncle cut wood a few weekends back on a 5' fir on the oregon coast and we were wishing for at least an 084 with a 42. But the red light 066 right outta the shop on a rebuild after 25 years of falling (on her first rebuild I might add) still had us grinnin with a 36" with a hot grind job

Beautiful. I just bought a new 88 for myself for those really big jobs where my 66 might be struggling a touch. Keep a 5 foot Cannon bar 3/8 .63 With full skip chisel and it Cuts so fast, even in hardwoods. I would love to find a local guy who I can trust to upgrade my saws. But Then again I am in Northern Comifornia. Love the channel, I enjoy watching.

That's not the way I was mentored to cut 🤔 Lantra awards

[@hotsaws101]

Eric hi. Well, I'm not in England or Ireland. There isn't a steady diet of large trees over there and haven't been for centuries. So, it stands to reason that the "protocol" on this side of the pond is different. Plus, it is still not regulated into submission in a few areas in the PNW like what you have to deal with. Additionally, you have "trainers" that never spent multiple decades on the end on a pistol grip in the bottom of some deep dark hole, day after day, year after year. Experience. It will lumenate the nuance. Thanks for watching.

[@mikewest3828]

You know man it would cool ,if you could have 2 piece head, hell then your imagination is limit at that point different shape, different design what ever you cast

[@Fabzacres]

Mike West - certainly within capability to do a 2-pc head ... you could custom-design different “domes” in the head that provided different characteristics ie torque ; woods perhaps even hi pro - race ... one saw , 2 or 3 machined aluminum heads and you’ve got the bases covered ... “wood” be some extensive R/D but once dialed in for each head /saw/tune you’d have a saw that truly could do it all !
