I started my logging career in 1974 when I was working for Roesler Timber out of Sultan, Washington with a timber faller named Art Keck. We were in a stand of very high value poles and piling timber near Lake Cavanaugh. The two of us would drop the trees and then yard them to the landing with a C6 Terex crawler. Many of the logs were 120+' long. I would then follow the log trucks out to I-5 until they no longer needed a pilot car. It was a great way to start logging. Art always took the time to teach me as he went. This video brings back many good memories......except the damned Horseflies!
Amazing working slope. After working in the hills of WV USA I can greatly appreciate your physical strength in this slope. I am old and not in shape to do this any more. Love watching you and reminds me of earlier days. Thank you Sir.
Peter, I also worked timber in WV; Mingo and Logan Counties. Got smart and became a Dr. I am only 68, but could not do that kind of work all day now. I do keep a Husqvarna 572 XP on hand though.
I still have my big Macs along with Husqvarnas. My son that is a Sargent in the Marine Corps mills the logs to make furniture when he comes home on leave. We live in NC and are utilizing the local hardwood including Live Oak which i feel is tougher that the oak in the Appalachian region. I am 68 with a full reverse shoulder and just had a procedure on L2 and L3 of my vertebrae. I won't quit but the body sure isn't what it use to be, but I still plan on working till the day I pass. Won't quit because I still love a work challenge.
At 1:17:30 for a loose axe head soak it in auto antifreeze. It will swell up and not dry out again. Full strength ethylene glycol will do wonders for loose wood handles.
Tnx,for that tip...don't get many these days,,,I oiled them,,but antifreeze makes more sense,water soakes deep,oil,?no...land o' lakes,wi.ya,we cut also!😯
Fantastic practical guide to felling in very difficult terrain. I learned more in the first twenty minutes of this than I have in the last ten years! The limb-tied tandem fell was top notch, and your on the go risk assessments are excellent. Thanks for posting.
I watched this video for the first time and never mind all the negative comments, dude you are awesome. I would love to have the opportunity to learn from you. The way you drop trees is exactly how I try to do things. Keep up the good work brother. Your videos are very educational.
watched the whole thing in one sitting, awesome views. Completely different to the sort of tree work we do in the UK and i'm so jealous! Love your steady thoughtout approaches and no nonsense honesty on the back cut first tree.
I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.
I like how through the camera some trees only look a foot or two in diameter but then you stand next to them or put your 42" bar in and its nowhere near all the way through... I'd love to see some of these giants up close... We don't quite have anything near that size here in the UK. Love your content, if I had seen these vids when I was 18 I think I would've come to Canada to be a feller. There was no youtube back then though and now I'm 42 and have health issues so theres no chance. I'm glad I can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Pacific NW thanks to your videos. Thanks for the time and effort you take to make these videos, I for one enjoy them immensely
I worked as a faller feller here in Ireland in the late 80s early 90s, watching this excellent video of your day and narrative along the way awesome, the saws a ripper by the way, but it really shines because of your input Great stuff mate...💪💪💪👍🇮🇪
That 592 your running now, is without a doubt, Screaming 💀 Running ☠️ Death for the woods. Listening to her gear up and down when you get into good Deepwood is a sound I will never grow tired of hearing. Of course, you are a top-notch, professional, otherwise called a one arm cutter because you can cut better and cut more with just one hand than the vast majority of men on the entire planet, Can with 2 hands. so that saw in your hands is an unbelievable instrument of death to any sizable timber 🌲
I love how you explain you logic of where to lay everything, even taking into things like the sun. I’m a painter-drywaller by trade, and I’m always thinking about what side of the house to start spraying in relation to the sun. Sometimes you need to be in it, but in the summer your mostly trying in vain to avoid it lol. Expert cuttin like always
I love working timber with big bore saws. I used to use smaller saws because I thought the lighter weight would make up for the lack of power. Honestly, having more HP means you are in and out of the wood quicker so you don't have to hold up the saw all day. I run a moded 661 with an 8-pin sprocket and a 28-inch lightweight Sugi-hara bar. Man, it flies through the wood. I love that saw.
MandM Milling why you use a Sugi-hara bar - Stihl light bars are legit, and I'm a Husky guy. My 592xp I ordered a 28inch light bar which Husky light bar in the USA is Sugi bar - nice bar. Stihl light bars are better from what I read. Still, Sugi and Sumara bars can hold their own. IF the 592xp proves to be like the 395xp in power & longevity YOU BETTER LOOK OUT STIHL LOVERS!!!!!
@@CatsRcool-b5o as you put use on a bar, the sides of the top and bottom "the rails" will get worn allowing the chain to move around on the bar. This will cause your cuts to start moving right or left...instead of cutting straight. You fix this by grinding the rails flat again. Its called dressing the bar. Everytime you dress a bar, it takes life from it. I dont seem to need to dress sugi bars as much as stihls...
The 592 what a saw right it’s crazy how fast the power comes on and rip love how they start cold 5-6 pumps full choke till she burps then fast idle for warm up and don’t touch throttle till ya want it to idle
Im running the 500i i really like it.. 80cc not 92 like the 592 But I appreciate the lighter saw on long days that 592 does absolutely rip!! Keep up the good work!
Just looked up....and saw the reverse footage....and thought I was losing it.....Killer camera work and idea's.....thanks again......And a Blessed Thanksgiving to You and your Family.....Much Respect from St Petersburg Florida....
+20% is around what Donny adds to his saws which isn’t bad considering he’s a dealer. If you send it to a reputable Saw Builder your getting over 30% more power. Donnie doesn’t cut the squish band or base which is where the majority of the extra torque comes from.
@@JS-oy6nn Most I have seen are only getting about 10% more power on the 592 as there is not a lot that can be done that Husky has not already done on the 592, Right out of the box it rips pretty dang good I luv mine.
I’m a forester in the US and the paint signifies what trees were in with a basal area factor using a tool called a relaskop. The snag has paint on it because that tree was close enough to be considered “in” on the plot. Love your videos!
When we are timber cruising in British Columbia, we use a glass prism to measure within a plot, some Foresters in BC might also use what you refer to. We measure the height of the tree using a clinometer and a meter chain. Enjoyed the video also!
That camera you’re using is amazing. Not a pro, but I have a 562 and it handles big oak like a champ, would love to have one like yours. That 592 is a great saw. Great video, great views and great office!
This is my next saw to buy!! I have a Stihl 461 ported & muffler mod, also Stihl 462 ported & muffler mod and I love them, they both kill the wimpy 500i hands down!! Husky 592 here I come! Nice video thank you!
min 49/51 the best position for camera , also min 58, yes I prefer lateral position and i like watch the cut instead the top . Good job good video from Italy
There's nothing like a new Husky, as I love my 550 XP over my other saws, which I keep in my Jeep for clearing the many trees from the mountain roads I drive every week. I even plan on buying another one as a backup and for larger trees, such as the 572 or this 592, which is Husqvarna's newest and largest displacement saw in the 500 series.
Well we’re not really talking about towns or villages so I would go with the saw Husky here in the US is referring to the Husqvarna chain saw it’s a matter of context
I’ll tell ya I was really pleasantly surprised by Huskies X chain or the X cut chain the only negative thing about them they do not like to be grounded even once ya better stop and run a file around the chain
Absolutely fantastic; you are such an expert plus one with balls; I used to log in Maine with JD skidder but you take the cake; you are awesome; thankyou
Yaaay!! Lol, that's Awesome Bjarne! I have a Husky Lightweight. Just a 28" though. Yeah, it was a bit heavier than I expected. Jus started the video so I'm anxiously seeing how the new saw performs. Seems pretty fast at this point.
I love you're talking about donny walker, and I know who you mean. Yet I have never been to Canada, let alone Vancouver Island. The Internet does have its advantages
Awesome Bjarne, I've been waiting for this video for a while! Saw will hopefully get stronger as you break it in. I'm glad to hear you like it, can never have too much power 🤘
For a second there I thought you were bucking son and that would be cool if you and him got together and made a video I learned a lot of things from watching you guys thanks for taking the time to explain things love and respect Steve
interested to see how it works ! I won't need one for quite some time yet I hope cause we just got a couple of new old stock 390's and we have the one 572 XP that hasn't been ported yet just a different muffler...so hopefully it will be some time before we need a new one. UPDATE.. It's now a year later. I had a new in the box 390 given the treatment by a new Saw Shop and while there Our Son decided to have our 572 turned hot and he purchased a brand spanking new 592 and he had the shop go thru it and give it the "treatment" making it a lot more powerful and faster plus he swapped out factory muffler and kept the spark screen to stay Forest Service legal. We now have all the power heads back from the Shop and are working them hard everyday. I know the 592 has more power than my old school 390 but where the 592 has great top end speed to power ratio my 390 has the grunt that the 592 just don't seem to me anyway to have. Don't get me wrong the "92" is a fantastic powerhead but the 390 just seems to suit me better. We run 32" Tsumura Light Bars with square ground full skip chain because 100% of what we cut is Ponderosa Pine and Black Hills Spruce. We do a lot of Bark Beatle Killed and Fire Salvage jobs and the rest goes to pulp wood, framing lumber and top grade finish lumber. Right now because of the way the bugs stain Ponderosa Pine all the various natural colors, that market has exploded ! Homeowners doing re- models and New Construction as well as the Log Home industry has really placed a high demand on this big stained wood so that's 90% of where our $$$$$$$ comes from. We've been running our Power heads sometimes 2 months straight with 4 days off at times because we have our own family run logging Company and it's Me, our Son and Son in Law and one full time equipment operator who is basically retired and works for us just to keep busy, he skids, stacks, loads and hauls our logs to the local mills or the Son in Law does that job. Anyways long story short we have a place for both....our Son loves the new 592 & I prefer the new old stock 390...and both have their place.
Ayy there it is, great saw! The 592 and 585 are both pretty hot out of the box and loads of fun, not hearing of any crazy gains when ported for a work saw so far.
Love this dude one of the best fellers I have seen on the interweebs I would work and or hire this man to cut wood any day...I also love that he is a Husky man I swear by them myself never liked Stihl had god awful luck with them that is a nice saw loved my 365 and 372xp's..
The muffler doesn’t bolt to the oil tank like the 390 going to have to figure something else out for the 592 I am checking mine to make sure it is tite and not dogging it into stuff hard hopefully it doesn’t break

Absolutely, on another level of cutting. 💪
I’ve a stock 592, luv it. No one’s worked one yet in Oz but there is one in the pipeline, be interesting to run a stock saw beside it👍
That is great advice, assume every decision you make could be wrong.

wow Bjarne, don't know much about falling tree's but that saw cut wood like a house on fire 🔥🔥👍👍

I won't need one for quite some time yet I hope cause we just got a couple of new old stock 390's and we have the one 572 XP that hasn't been ported yet just a different muffler...so hopefully it will be some time before we need a new one.
UPDATE..
It's now a year later. I had a new in the box 390 given the treatment by a new Saw Shop and while there Our Son decided to have our 572 turned hot and he purchased a brand spanking new 592 and he had the shop go thru it and give it the "treatment" making it a lot more powerful and faster plus he swapped out factory muffler and kept the spark screen to stay Forest Service legal. We now have all the power heads back from the Shop and are working them hard everyday.

Don't get me wrong the "92" is a fantastic powerhead but the 390 just seems to suit me better. We run 32" Tsumura Light Bars with square ground full skip chain because 100% of what we cut is Ponderosa Pine and Black Hills Spruce.

Anyways long story short we have a place for both....our Son loves the new 592 & I prefer the new old stock 390...and both have their place.
Ayy there it is, great saw! The 592 and 585 are both pretty hot out of the box and loads of fun, not hearing of any crazy gains when ported for a work saw so far.
This is my first 592 so I don’t know what a stock 592 feels like but it does cut faster then my 390
About time a 592 found its way to you! " make my two hour video's one hour video's" Funny!
Congratulations in the saw bud. Have a good week enjoy.
Now that’s a Production Saw!!
sawdust blowing in the camera was awesome
I though that Stihl chain was cutting remarkably well out of the box; nice big chips quick.
Well it looks like you're living your daydream! Keep up the great videos.
Bjarne x donny walker is super cool! You need one of his in house light bars! Ordered mine off his sight! Keep up the great vids 👍👍
59 min the one that got away! love my 550xp
First cut and the difference is obvious! A beast!
Love this dude one of the best fellers I have seen on the interweebs I would work and or hire this man to cut wood any day...I also love that he is a Husky man I swear by them myself never liked Stihl had god awful luck with them that is a nice saw loved my 365 and 372xp's..
Nice saw sir! Be careful with those crancase that hold spike. They really thin. I think you should modded it like your 390
The muffler doesn’t bolt to the oil tank like the 390 going to have to figure something else out for the 592 I am checking mine to make sure it is tite and not dogging it into stuff hard hopefully it doesn’t break
Husqvarna is already working on updating the 592 crankcase to where its thicker where dogs bolt up
Great video buddy keep er in the wood see ya soon🪵👍yes we have heated versions
And new top covers 😉
Good job on this saw bud.
Thanks Donny. I’ll be stopping by the shop Saturday got a bill to pay 👍
That saw sounds braw mate!! Cuts like crazy!!
Thanks for keeping that hemlock in that went over unexpected.
You’re an artist.
our your plans to run the 592 full time now or just when your into bigger wood?
Cool Video, that Walkerized 592 is an Awesome Saw
Gotta Love Mr donny walker. That saws going to be a beast. ❤ from pnw oregon
