On why cheap tools smell funny out of the box: If the company cheaps out on the mold, or the part has a bunch of hard to fill spots due to bad design, the injection molder will add PPA, polymer processing aid. It's a lubricant that gets in between the polymer chains and helps them slide against each other as the shot fills the mold. You can overcome a fairly wide range of mold / part design flaws by the judicious adding of PPA. However it will bloom out of the finished part over time, and as the finished product sits in a plastic bag inside a box, the stuff has nowhere to go so it just sits there, stinking up the packaging.
It's not just cheap tools, the WillSuckYe packout boxes stink like headcheese farts when they're first opened. Disclaimer: I don't own any, we just sell them where I work (not Home Cheesepot)

I love it. for campfires. for actual work i use the stihl. just sayin
Thanks for the break down, I want to buy one just to play around now! I have about 6 chainsaws varying in size up to the big boys but this thing just looks fun lol
I own one too. It looked fun in the store, I even bought the long tree extension. Problem is, it's HEAVY and the motor end is way out there. It's like tying a chainsaw to a long broomstick and then you still need to do that awkward pushing handle action. I am not sure if I'll ever be strong enough to use it more than a few branches and I will do manual looping and sawing for 8hrs every weekend until I use this. A failed reminder that clearance prices aren't always a bargain and to always lift tools up in the store and pretend I'm pruning a real tree.
it's not the knots, it's the U-shape where the spiral kinda reverses direction that alway drove me nuts. seemed like you could never get those out of the cord once it was there.
do you know what an elephant is , it's the government specification of a mouse and then when it was built they put the tail on the wrong end and assigned it a new task
My elderly neighbor lady uses one of these when branches fall off her tree. She points it straight down at the ground over the branch, pulls the trigger and pushes straight down on it. it seems to work okay and you don't have to worry about running the bar into the ground. For that kind of use it does make more sense to push then pull. I have to admit, if I had a bunch of branches at ground level I'd prefer this to bending over with the chainsaw all day. But due to the high teasing Factor, I'd rather have a sore back than a sore ego.
18:10 The word for that is "skiving". It happens when there isn't sufficient draft built into a mold cavity. Or in the case of an over molded part, the substrate is larger than the cavity.
As a small framed woman, this saw is perfect for me. It takes care of all the 6-8” stove wood/slash. Our recent storm damage has been incredible and this little Saul has been indispensable
As a tool maker I hate to tell you this but that would never fly, if it's not in the print your up the creek if you were to put it in there, what you'd have to do is have to engineer in on it along with quality control and various other parts of the bureaucracy all in agreement so good luck with that lol.
Ha! That reminds me of a former neighbour who bought an old (old=wooden chassis!) Lagonda to restore. When he stripped out the interior, he found a 1" washer tied to a piece of string, hanging below a rear window frame so that it would gently ding against the inside of the bodywork at random intervals. That was some 90 year old trolling for every mechanic that ever worked on the car! I thought it was hilarious.
Alan Mumford hear a story about a car with a unexplainable rattle. Multiple mechanics from multiple dealerships looked everything over just to eventually find a old pop bottle filled with stones inside a quarter panel and note congratulating the finder. Dude got fired due to modern tracability.
I'm thinking the reason it's push-activated as opposed to pull-activated is because, that way, as you're pushing the tool into the workpiece, you're also actuating the saw lever. Pulling might be physically easier, but then your front hand is still pushing to keep the tool on the branch, and you're pulling with the other hand...
I have a 20v JawSaw. My father provides firewood at his motel for a nightly campfire, and we barter for a basically endless supply of wood with a local tree guy. Anyways, the wood is perfect size for the jawsaw to cut. I estimate, in 3 years i have cut close to 40 cords of firewood with my battery operated jawsaw. Only sharpen the chan maybe 4 times. since only hitting wood, stays nice and sharp. Compared to my regular chainsaw, i can cut a weeks worth of fire wood in about 3-5 minutes. one person lines up the logs, i go through with the jaw saw, and my midget puts the cut wood on the pile
@@thetayterminator1436 You might be the only one who read it in AvE's voice but I bet there was 50,000 of us who said "What a load of cock and balls that is!" in AvE's voice.
I have one of these, bought it at a liquidation store for $15. It actually works fairly well. The push down feature and the jaws let me use it to trim down yard clippings/branches on the ground. Something you can't do safely with a regular chainsaw. I use other yard tools to trim/prune my trees, then this to get everything small enough to fit inside yard bags. I can get through my entire yards worth of branches in under 5 minutes. I don't use it like a chainsaw, more like a....crappy handheld mulcher...
I always enjoy the peek-behind-the-curtains of the manufacturing processes that actually get these machines working. I pretty much always learn something new from each video. Thanks for putting this stuff out there.
And all the friction of the chain rubbing against the bar. Those things usually get pretty hot pretty quick. Actual cutting power I'd guesstimate closer to 1/2hp.
Teaching students to convert horsepower to watts is one of the hardest things. They know horsepower is for engines and watts is for electricity. The connection is completely lost.
Posting from the wiff's account on account of my confuser being in the same room as a sleeping dragon. So basically every woman I've ever known goes straight for electric versions of all yardbound implements of destruction. They are lighter, quieter, don't require pulling a rope, and are less finicky. Plug it up, pull the trigger and it goes. Basically all of them are wary of a chainsaw. I can see this being made for them. In their brains, it's the same function, but there isn't a giant spinning blade of death hanging out for the world to see. It's big enough to lop up a downed branch or two, and they can use gravity to their advantage by leaning on the handle. If the job is any bigger than the depth of the jaw, they are going to call a 200 pound gorillia with a gas powered spinning blade of death to handle it for them anyway. Just my .02
I think he got a hold of some magnetic core memory a while back and showed it off, but that could be eevblogs or codyslab or bigclive that I'm thinking of.
you nailed it mate. that slot is for a loop of the power cable...push it through then secure it on the hook of the latch. its so cable tension isn't relayed to the fixture inside the tool.
Clandestine Woodwork Just put the ends of both cords side by side, tie a knot in them and plug them into each other. Never comes apart, no tension on the plugs.
The only time I would consider using it is when cutting a plastic sewer line in a ditch. The shroud has potential for redirecting the blackwater at some unsuspecting bystander and the reach might mean that I don't need to reapply mud to my boots for that proper look
You are saying that as if it was a bad thing 😍 actually it shouldn't be any standing "water" until the pipe is cut. What kills you is the ignition of the gas in the sewer when the plug ( the greasy reason you are cutting the pipe in the first place) goes backwards due to lost fluidpressure.
I love that you used that janky mini-saw to open this. 4 times. I guess I'm out of the loop, I haven't seen it since you enhanced it. That was a good blast from the past.
Love your videos come home from work every night to watch with the misses what random things you do at the empire of dirt i appreciate the content and the knowledge it's nice that you rip apart the power tools and give the insight why there Skookum or not
The orange clipy thing is so you can mutilate the 12 gauge extension cord wire by folding it in half, sticking it through the slot, and then looping it over the dingus bit. Provides strain relief so your protected pokin' bit doesn't fall out of the receptacle end of your extension cord and stop the angry pixies dance party.
Looks like a chain saw version of a Pocket Fisherman. A fad tool. Bet that housing really packs full of saw dust. I can see it being safer, especially when it sits on the shelf in the garage as you use your real chainsaw.
that stink is probably cause they used recycled plastic, I work at a plastic extrusion plant and whenever we send plastic out for regrind its also full of all the oil that leaks from the machines. when we use the regrind for the power totes it stinks like none other
I love my worx saw for the past few years. But you’ll have to put that spring back in to understand. I go around and lop branches off and then I can fly thru slicing them all down without picking them up. Because it’s guarded you can cut stuff laying on the dirt. When it starts to cut it pulls the crap into the jaw while cutting. Saves my back and my good saw blades from either hitting dirt or having to pick up to cut branches. That’s about all I have found good for it but what it does it does fast and well. Plus I got it with some reward points for cheap.
Also the red “RFID” tag looking thing goes in the handle when it’s compressed so you can have the saw in the middle of the jaw so you can clean/adjust/replace chain etc...
Was wondering what the point of this thing was over just using a regular chainsaw, and cutting up branches that are already lying on the ground - that is the good use case for this thing, jaws and all..
bubba99009 a good tip is to go around a cut everything in 15 inch sections anything less then 2 to 3 inches. Then send the kids out to fill the wheelbarrow or buckets lol
The ergonomics look great to me. These are designed specifically for over head branches. All you would do is put the branch in the jaws and push. It would be practically a one handed job once the branch is in the jaws. Apparently there is an OH&S rule that states you shouldn't be using a chain saw to cut branches higher than heat hight. Love your videos man! Thank you so so much! ☺
it's to cut thin branches on the ground for firewood, so you don't end up chewing the shit out of the ground with a regular chainsaw. the push mechanism is so you can just lean on it to actuate
As a Brit Listening to AvE takes me back to the Mid seventies working as a roughneck for a Canadian drilling contractor called Kenting Drilling in the UK , they were all crazy but a lot of fun , do they still exist ? Many happy memories.
I got this to easily clean up the smaller branches in a felled tree. It's lightweight, so less effort than even a small chainsaw. I use the Stihl MS311 for the big work, MS210C for medium, and this for the small stuff. It works great for clearing out the tree-tops / small stuff.
I think that the reason it's a push and not a pull to actuate the saw is because it looks like it's more meant for pruning branches way above your head. If your pulling in the damn thing instead of pushing while you're at max reach you're liable to detach it from the branch your cutting and have it chop off your arm or something. When I saw one at lowes the box advertised an extender specifically for high branch pruning, and the think literally looked like a stick with a grabber. I cant see any viable method of using it as a pull mechanism for that niche use and still keep it safe. Also, with how small the jaw opening is, it would only handle the most tiny of trees or small branches anyway.
I think the pushing motion and other ergonomic inconveniences are a fully intentional choice. It all aides to prevent the user feeding the saw too fast and binding it all up.
At 6:00, I understand your concern for pushing, but when you use a regular chainsaw, which I use all the time, you are also constantly pushing. Also, the key way design of the sprocket is perfectly fine. Even Husqvarna has an even smaller radial key way cut into its sprocket. It is machined further out however, for better torque with a large gas engine. For an small electric motor, that key design seems quite adequate. I just got one of these, and for the home owner that cuts trees on occasion for firewood, this tool seems perfect for cutting up the branches into tons of kindling for firewood. It is very easy to use while standing up to chop up branches that are already on the ground. Cutting up tons of Douglas Fir branches for firewood is a real nightmare with any tool that requires you to constantly bend over to chop the branch. My review will be made soon.
As a Canuck, The Jaw Saw is a great tool for “What is was designed to do” Using the lower jaw to collect branches on the ground and pushing on Mother Earth to cut, No destruction of a STIHL chain Trying to cut “Topsoil”. 3(three) years and running as “New”.
My stepdad bought a Worx pole saw. After about 6 months a metal sprocket wore out. After calling them and trying to get a new sprocket it sounded like there was no new sprockets. The lady said will take care of you. Next week a complete brand new saw showed up, no charge. Same sprocket as that saw, The plastic parts outlast the sprocket.
I can't stand that... Just sell the darn replacement parts! They keep everything proprietary not for sale so you are forced to scrap it. At least they helped, but that won't do any good when it's out of production.
Sometimes it helps to ask the manufacturer directly. Worx is made by Positec and they have a contact form on the website. They won't give you the part directly but you can subsequently go to a local worx retailer and ask them to order the part under the manufacturer's part number.
I've got one of these and it has turned out to be one of the most time saving and cool tools I have had. Instead of being bent over trimming limbs on a downed tree you can stand up straight next to the limb and just push straight down. Not much effort to use. Very safe since no exposed bar to buck back at you. Once the limbs are off the trunk you stand next to the limb to section them into easy to handle lengths. Using the saw properly just position the saw over the limb and push down. The saw draws the limb up into the tool off the ground and cuts it cleanly. This thing has saved my back and will never go back to a regular chain saw for liming. The little plastic piece is inserted into the handle as you push half way down as a lock exposing the chain so you can sharpen it.
I have had one of these for several years and it works great! just keep it clean, sharp, and oiled, and it does everything I ask of it. I was hit by hurricane Michael in October of 2018. This little saw, along with the Worx electric saw, get a lot of use, as well as my Poulan Pro 50cc. Sure, you aren't going to fell a giant red wood with it, but you aren't going to drive a railroad spike with a tack hammer either. I think you just have a problem with worx tools. This is a well designed little saw if you use it as intended., I would buy it again.
I've worked in a DIY store and sold Worx (Positech) powertools. We hardly ever would get them back because of breaking under warrantee. The cordless drills are quite good. There were some cordless drills around the store for assembling and building store decoration. The Makita with Ni-CD batteries was the best, though by now the old Ni-CD battery is tired. Below that, the plethora of Worx drills and screwers (old demo models). Super torquey, but the battery packs aren't totally reliable. Right at the bottom was Black&Decker. Lots of play on the shaft after just a few years. The B&D jig saw as just as shitty.
IIRC Positec offers quite a bit of aftermarket service. If you find the right part on their site, i think your retailer could probably order it for you if something breaks
Watched an NCR engineer rebuild a 16k ferrite core memory with a soldering iron by threading in new sensing wires when an operator on the '70s. It took two of us to carry the thing.
Core memory was the best ! Unfortunately, replaced with solid state RAM, as main computer memory. That said, for non-volatile needs, core stuck around well into the 80s, until replace by EEROM. We used core on Multi-bus cards, well into the mid-80s. A whopping 16K-bytes per board ! Some Seeburg Jukeboxes also used core. Perfect application for it. Once, the song is played, that entry needs to be erased, which core memory did as part of its normal operation (destructive read). On the jukebox it was addressed as individual bits. Not unlike early DRAM. Remember buying RAM, 9 chips at a time !? The old guys do.
Exactly! I have one and also a bad back. This works fantastically for making firewood out of fallen branches. Simply place over the branch & press straight down. Very easy & no back strain. This is NOT a lopper intended for overhead use. Check out CRH for a proper review used as intended.
It's mainly made for old people who can't properly wield a chainsaw anymore and need to cut branches/saplings close to the ground. Each tool for its purpose, and cutting 100 year oaks is not the purpose for this thing.
Those little plastic terminals we call floaters and are typically rated for 500 volts. We use them in industrial applications for low voltage stuff sometimes
Jimmy's Tractor not only is this a real tool, this here limb mutilator has been on the market for years. I remember the worx infomericals showing this thing many moons ago back when i was in grade school. She's a 8ish year old design at least.
I work for silicone injection molding, and the lines (roughness) we call it skiving, as we use poly-carbonate plastics. The smell could be caused by the mold release, and usually the smell goes away after 8hrs or so, and the skiving on the plastic is a result of the release agent wearing out, or not using much or any mold release. Lack of mold release will cause the plastic to literally bond to the mold, and you don't want that. Such products called "McLube" and "Orvus (soap)" can be used in our case. We McLube the mold, then use light amount of orvus to 'hide' the texture of the Mclube and give us just the right amount of part release from the mold. You don't want to over-lube the mold, as then the part will stick to the other side of the mold where you don't want it, and you don't want too little and cause the part to not release. Clearly the skiving on the plastic parts is a result of a mold operator not paying attention, or have little to no knowledge on the proper mold operation and importance of mold release. When the plastic has too much gloss, it means that the mold was saturated in mold release, and it shows on the plastic surface layer. Some plastic mold makers are saying that newer molds don't need release agents, but I call that horse sh*t, as nothing done with the steel will change how plastic interacts with the steel surface layer to prevent the plastic from bonding to it.
@ave FYI the orange bit on the end is to loop the extension cord over to prevent separation while you are pulling on the extension cord. Not that it matters. Just sharing.
In this case pushing is better than pulling. You can stick it to a tree and use your weight to push on the handle and break the tool. Very well design to test the warranty / service at the local store....
16:08 - Fancy lathes have polygonal turning on a separate live tooling axis (at least in my experience it has never been part of the regular tool turret). I've only used it for hex heads on fitted tapered bolts, but I guess you could do 2 flats...
That saw was actuslly meant to be used against the ground. Say You have a bunch of large branches on the ground after falling a tree. You out this over the branch to be cut and push against the ground. The jaws also keep the bar from contacting the actual ground.
Yup. I bought one of these and it's really for limbs already on the ground. The chain saw lifts it up, the teeth stop the limb from spinning. The saw teeth don't get 'bull-nosed' from striking the dirt. One handed operation, no bending over. It's heavy, though and I'd never, ever get the available extension handle. Great for consumer level yard cleanup where everything has to go into bags for the trash pick up.
Hello Sir, I just stumbled upon this video while drinking some morning coffee. Thank you...gave me a couple good giggles. I like your style Man. I'll be looking for some fresh content. Please keep up the great work.
My grandmother has one of these. She couldn't get a chainsaw to cut a branch if you handed it to running. This on the other hand has left all our hedges crying for a relief. At least until the 5'6" range where she cant reach anymore. But Worx sold her the extension handle... and that brings her up to 6'5". I no longer have to worry about walking into branches in her yard. I tried it out.. Think of it as a chainsaw for those branches you cant cut with your pruner, but don't really want to drag the gas saw out of the garage and mix gas and do all the work.. but you don't care about stretching out that god awful tangled extension cord, or carrying a generator around to run it. I think I've cut extension cords more valuable than the tool. don't use green ones you'll lose them in the pile of brush you make with it. That darn chain does like to pop off when you get a log in a bind...........
It's used lock the handle in place, about halfway through the slide motion a slot in the handle and a slot in the housing align and you shove that little plastic bit in there.
hey. is that "don't assume my gender joke" offensive? I thought it was a barb against the knickers in a knot crowd but a few trans people called me out. Can I get a ruling?
Love mine. Knock down trees with regular chainsaw. Then switch over to jaw saw for branches and brush. Easy on old bones and dont ha e to bend over so much. It might be a gimmick but it works for me.
“It’s an oddball tool, rather in search of a project. Takes one to know one.” XD If feel ya! Congrats on pegging every one of your subscribers in 20 words or less.

My elderly neighbor lady uses one of these when branches fall off her tree. She points it straight down at the ground over the branch, pulls the trigger and pushes straight down on it. it seems to work okay and you don't have to worry about running the bar into the ground.
For that kind of use it does make more sense to push then pull.
I have to admit, if I had a bunch of branches at ground level I'd prefer this to bending over with the chainsaw all day. But due to the high teasing Factor, I'd rather have a sore back than a sore ego.
alright,, l liked the primer bulb idea, just on the repurpose

18:10 The word for that is "skiving". It happens when there isn't sufficient draft built into a mold cavity. Or in the case of an over molded part, the substrate is larger than the cavity.
As a small framed woman, this saw is perfect for me. It takes care of all the 6-8” stove wood/slash. Our recent storm damage has been incredible and this little Saul has been indispensable
One of these days you'll open up a tool that has a message written for you by the mold maker. That's when you know you've made it.
As a tool maker I hate to tell you this but that would never fly, if it's not in the print your up the creek if you were to put it in there, what you'd have to do is have to engineer in on it along with quality control and various other parts of the bureaucracy all in agreement so good luck with that lol.
Ha! That reminds me of a former neighbour who bought an old (old=wooden chassis!) Lagonda to restore. When he stripped out the interior, he found a 1" washer tied to a piece of string, hanging below a rear window frame so that it would gently ding against the inside of the bodywork at random intervals. That was some 90 year old trolling for every mechanic that ever worked on the car! I thought it was hilarious.
Attn Ave : GTFO!

Alan Mumford hear a story about a car with a unexplainable rattle. Multiple mechanics from multiple dealerships looked everything over just to eventually find a old pop bottle filled with stones inside a quarter panel and note congratulating the finder. Dude got fired due to modern tracability.
Alan Mumford I have heard similar stories. But the rattle traps were found just the same
I'm thinking the reason it's push-activated as opposed to pull-activated is because, that way, as you're pushing the tool into the workpiece, you're also actuating the saw lever.
Pulling might be physically easier, but then your front hand is still pushing to keep the tool on the branch, and you're pulling with the other hand...

I have a 20v JawSaw. My father provides firewood at his motel for a nightly campfire, and we barter for a basically endless supply of wood with a local tree guy. Anyways, the wood is perfect size for the jawsaw to cut. I estimate, in 3 years i have cut close to 40 cords of firewood with my battery operated jawsaw. Only sharpen the chan maybe 4 times. since only hitting wood, stays nice and sharp. Compared to my regular chainsaw, i can cut a weeks worth of fire wood in about 3-5 minutes. one person lines up the logs, i go through with the jaw saw, and my midget puts the cut wood on the pile

Yep got it first off
Damnit I just made the same joke you suck.
I have one of these, bought it at a liquidation store for $15.
It actually works fairly well. The push down feature and the jaws let me use it to trim down yard clippings/branches on the ground. Something you can't do safely with a regular chainsaw.
I use other yard tools to trim/prune my trees, then this to get everything small enough to fit inside yard bags. I can get through my entire yards worth of branches in under 5 minutes. I don't use it like a chainsaw, more like a....crappy handheld mulcher...
Can you push first, position over limb, and then pull to cut?
Yup, perfect example, I get what you mean, however i found that the Black & Decker Alligator saw works better for that purpose, though.
I tried it for that. Got it done in half the time with a regular chainsaw tho

Posting from the wiff's account on account of my confuser being in the same room as a sleeping dragon. So basically every woman I've ever known goes straight for electric versions of all yardbound implements of destruction. They are lighter, quieter, don't require pulling a rope, and are less finicky. Plug it up, pull the trigger and it goes. Basically all of them are wary of a chainsaw. I can see this being made for them. In their brains, it's the same function, but there isn't a giant spinning blade of death hanging out for the world to see. It's big enough to lop up a downed branch or two, and they can use gravity to their advantage by leaning on the handle. If the job is any bigger than the depth of the jaw, they are going to call a 200 pound gorillia with a gas powered spinning blade of death to handle it for them anyway. Just my .02
Don,t worry by those dudes , this tool is a good tool, I use it my self and very pleased with it .:)

Orange clip on the cord is to put a small loop the extension cord through to hold it.
I think he knows that
And the red "RFID tag" is actually just a pin for jamming the slide action during transport.
you nailed it mate. that slot is for a loop of the power cable...push it through then secure it on the hook of the latch. its so cable tension isn't relayed to the fixture inside the tool.
Actually that relays all of the tension into the tool. The orange clip is so the extension cord doesn't pull off and unplug.
Clandestine Woodwork Just put the ends of both cords side by side, tie a knot in them and plug them into each other. Never comes apart, no tension on the plugs.
The only time I would consider using it is when cutting a plastic sewer line in a ditch. The shroud has potential for redirecting the blackwater at some unsuspecting bystander and the reach might mean that I don't need to reapply mud to my boots for that proper look
its electric. If you get it anywhere near water it'll kill you and start a fire somewhere.
You are saying that as if it was a bad thing 😍 actually it shouldn't be any standing "water" until the pipe is cut. What kills you is the ignition of the gas in the sewer when the plug ( the greasy reason you are cutting the pipe in the first place) goes backwards due to lost fluidpressure.
I love that you used that janky mini-saw to open this. 4 times. I guess I'm out of the loop, I haven't seen it since you enhanced it. That was a good blast from the past.

The orange clipy thing is so you can mutilate the 12 gauge extension cord wire by folding it in half, sticking it through the slot, and then looping it over the dingus bit. Provides strain relief so your protected pokin' bit doesn't fall out of the receptacle end of your extension cord and stop the angry pixies dance party.
Looks like a chain saw version of a Pocket Fisherman. A fad tool. Bet that housing really packs full of saw dust. I can see it being safer, especially when it sits on the shelf in the garage as you use your real chainsaw.
I needed this, thanks. Your are definitively something AvE!
Congrats on 1,000,000 subscribers!
that stink is probably cause they used recycled plastic, I work at a plastic extrusion plant and whenever we send plastic out for regrind its also full of all the oil that leaks from the machines. when we use the regrind for the power totes it stinks like none other
That's why most stuff from China stinks so bad.
It will stink even worse now that it's full of mystery meat.
Walk into a harbor freight, that whole place smells bad.
I love my worx saw for the past few years. But you’ll have to put that spring back in to understand. I go around and lop branches off and then I can fly thru slicing them all down without picking them up. Because it’s guarded you can cut stuff laying on the dirt. When it starts to cut it pulls the crap into the jaw while cutting. Saves my back and my good saw blades from either hitting dirt or having to pick up to cut branches. That’s about all I have found good for it but what it does it does fast and well. Plus I got it with some reward points for cheap.
Also the red “RFID” tag looking thing goes in the handle when it’s compressed so you can have the saw in the middle of the jaw so you can clean/adjust/replace chain etc...
Was wondering what the point of this thing was over just using a regular chainsaw, and cutting up branches that are already lying on the ground - that is the good use case for this thing, jaws and all..
bubba99009 a good tip is to go around a cut everything in 15 inch sections anything less then 2 to 3 inches. Then send the kids out to fill the wheelbarrow or buckets lol
Always love those volts measured in amps!
You had me at “Dingus-in-the-Blingus” :-) - thank you for the awesome videos!!!!
Looks like old school rope memory at the end. Very similar to what was in the Apollo guidance computer.
It is a disposable limb remover. After you done cutting up the corpse you bury it with the other evidence.
cordless sawzall is still better for that.

sounds a bit like breaking bad :)
You are such a hoot to listen to. Totally enjoy your humor and interesting descriptive words
The ergonomics look great to me. These are designed specifically for over head branches. All you would do is put the branch in the jaws and push. It would be practically a one handed job once the branch is in the jaws.
Apparently there is an OH&S rule that states you shouldn't be using a chain saw to cut branches higher than heat hight.
Love your videos man! Thank you so so much! ☺
it's to cut thin branches on the ground for firewood, so you don't end up chewing the shit out of the ground with a regular chainsaw. the push mechanism is so you can just lean on it to actuate

New from Fisher Price- The Doesn't Worx safety chainsaw
@AvE... You're almost to that 1 million subs that you guaranteed that you'd never get :) I'm super happy for you. Keep on truckin, bud.
I got this to easily clean up the smaller branches in a felled tree. It's lightweight, so less effort than even a small chainsaw. I use the Stihl MS311 for the big work, MS210C for medium, and this for the small stuff. It works great for clearing out the tree-tops / small stuff.
I think that the reason it's a push and not a pull to actuate the saw is because it looks like it's more meant for pruning branches way above your head. If your pulling in the damn thing instead of pushing while you're at max reach you're liable to detach it from the branch your cutting and have it chop off your arm or something. When I saw one at lowes the box advertised an extender specifically for high branch pruning, and the think literally looked like a stick with a grabber. I cant see any viable method of using it as a pull mechanism for that niche use and still keep it safe. Also, with how small the jaw opening is, it would only handle the most tiny of trees or small branches anyway.
Just the thing for lopping the heads off a next doors garden gnomes.....
Ha ha I just almost spilt me coffee at that comment. I want one now
Or cat!
I think the pushing motion and other ergonomic inconveniences are a fully intentional choice.
It all aides to prevent the user feeding the saw too fast and binding it all up.
At 6:00, I understand your concern for pushing, but when you use a regular chainsaw, which I use all the time, you are also constantly pushing. Also, the key way design of the sprocket is perfectly fine. Even Husqvarna has an even smaller radial key way cut into its sprocket. It is machined further out however, for better torque with a large gas engine. For an small electric motor, that key design seems quite adequate.
I just got one of these, and for the home owner that cuts trees on occasion for firewood, this tool seems perfect for cutting up the branches into tons of kindling for firewood. It is very easy to use while standing up to chop up branches that are already on the ground. Cutting up tons of Douglas Fir branches for firewood is a real nightmare with any tool that requires you to constantly bend over to chop the branch. My review will be made soon.
As a Canuck, The Jaw Saw is a great tool for “What is was designed to do”

Rob, yes I think it is pretty good used for lopping too.
For a little extra you get 3 years more warrantee after the 1 year one runs out.
My stepdad bought a Worx pole saw. After about 6 months a metal sprocket wore out. After calling them and trying to get a new sprocket it sounded like there was no new sprockets. The lady said will take care of you. Next week a complete brand new saw showed up, no charge. Same sprocket as that saw, The plastic parts outlast the sprocket.
I can't stand that... Just sell the darn replacement parts! They keep everything proprietary not for sale so you are forced to scrap it. At least they helped, but that won't do any good when it's out of production.
That's what you get when consumer demand and corporate motivations result in tool-products being made as cheaply as possible
Sometimes it helps to ask the manufacturer directly. Worx is made by Positec and they have a contact form on the website. They won't give you the part directly but you can subsequently go to a local worx retailer and ask them to order the part under the manufacturer's part number.
@@mfbfreak Oh he called them but theres no parts ob this side of the Pacific Ocean
I've got one of these and it has turned out to be one of the most time saving and cool tools I have had. Instead of being bent over trimming limbs on a downed tree you can stand up straight next to the limb and just push straight down. Not much effort to use. Very safe since no exposed bar to buck back at you. Once the limbs are off the trunk you stand next to the limb to section them into easy to handle lengths. Using the saw properly just position the saw over the limb and push down. The saw draws the limb up into the tool off the ground and cuts it cleanly. This thing has saved my back and will never go back to a regular chain saw for liming. The little plastic piece is inserted into the handle as you push half way down as a lock exposing the chain so you can sharpen it.
I have had one of these for several years and it works great! just keep it clean, sharp, and oiled, and it does everything I ask of it. I was hit by hurricane Michael in October of 2018. This little saw, along with the Worx electric saw, get a lot of use, as well as my Poulan Pro 50cc. Sure, you aren't going to fell a giant red wood with it, but you aren't going to drive a railroad spike with a tack hammer either. I think you just have a problem with worx tools. This is a well designed little saw if you use it as intended., I would buy it again.
I don't get out of bed for less than 6A of voltage.

No such thing as amps of Voltage-- try "of current"

Guess someone didn't watch the video huh
Dennis takes the Joy out of this.
I've worked in a DIY store and sold Worx (Positech) powertools. We hardly ever would get them back because of breaking under warrantee. The cordless drills are quite good. There were some cordless drills around the store for assembling and building store decoration. The Makita with Ni-CD batteries was the best, though by now the old Ni-CD battery is tired. Below that, the plethora of Worx drills and screwers (old demo models). Super torquey, but the battery packs aren't totally reliable.
Right at the bottom was Black&Decker. Lots of play on the shaft after just a few years. The B&D jig saw as just as shitty.
IIRC Positec offers quite a bit of aftermarket service. If you find the right part on their site, i think your retailer could probably order it for you if something breaks
Nothing wrong with playing with your shaft!!
i have back problems and i use it for branch's on ground and outside fires too. is it great hell no but it works for me
Fascinating video, thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Ferrite core memory from an old PDP-11?
Q-Hack! Yes that is what i was thinking , core-store.
Nah, it was made espessiahl for a new PDP-11 ;)
Watched an NCR engineer rebuild a 16k ferrite core memory with a soldering iron by threading in new sensing wires when an operator on the '70s. It took two of us to carry the thing.
Core memory was the best ! Unfortunately, replaced with solid state RAM, as main computer memory. That said, for non-volatile needs, core stuck around well into the 80s, until replace by EEROM. We used core on Multi-bus cards, well into the mid-80s. A whopping 16K-bytes per board !
Some Seeburg Jukeboxes also used core. Perfect application for it. Once, the song is played, that entry needs to be erased, which core memory did as part of its normal operation (destructive read). On the jukebox it was addressed as individual bits. Not unlike early DRAM. Remember buying RAM, 9 chips at a time !? The old guys do.
I'm guessing it would have to be a very early PDP for it to be core. All the ones I worked on had solid state memory. 11/44, 11/60, 11/70
I took the bottom jaw off and use it as a self propelled cane!
More intelligent than this crap design
The core memory at the end is a nice touch.
Thanks for the memories at the end there.
Isn't it designed for cutting logs (twigs) which are laying flat on the ground which would make the push to cut system a little more logical?
That makes a lot of sense. The jaws then prevent the logs (twigs) from rolling around while also keeping the blade off the ground.
Exactly! I have one and also a bad back. This works fantastically for making firewood out of fallen branches. Simply place over the branch & press straight down. Very easy & no back strain. This is NOT a lopper intended for overhead use. Check out CRH for a proper review used as intended.
what? read the instruction manual? This is AVE! NEVAAAH!
Now that's interesting, what kinda trees shed small branches regularly?

Don't forget to yell "TIMBER" when you fell that mighty oak!
It's mainly made for old people who can't properly wield a chainsaw anymore and need to cut branches/saplings close to the ground. Each tool for its purpose, and cutting 100 year oaks is not the purpose for this thing.

I work for silicone injection molding, and the lines (roughness) we call it skiving, as we use poly-carbonate plastics. The smell could be caused by the mold release, and usually the smell goes away after 8hrs or so, and the skiving on the plastic is a result of the release agent wearing out, or not using much or any mold release. Lack of mold release will cause the plastic to literally bond to the mold, and you don't want that. Such products called "McLube" and "Orvus (soap)" can be used in our case. We McLube the mold, then use light amount of orvus to 'hide' the texture of the Mclube and give us just the right amount of part release from the mold. You don't want to over-lube the mold, as then the part will stick to the other side of the mold where you don't want it, and you don't want too little and cause the part to not release. Clearly the skiving on the plastic parts is a result of a mold operator not paying attention, or have little to no knowledge on the proper mold operation and importance of mold release. When the plastic has too much gloss, it means that the mold was saturated in mold release, and it shows on the plastic surface layer. Some plastic mold makers are saying that newer molds don't need release agents, but I call that horse sh*t, as nothing done with the steel will change how plastic interacts with the steel surface layer to prevent the plastic from bonding to it.
@ave FYI the orange bit on the end is to loop the extension cord over to prevent separation while you are pulling on the extension cord. Not that it matters. Just sharing.
In this case pushing is better than pulling. You can stick it to a tree and use your weight to push on the handle and break the tool.
Very well design to test the warranty / service at the local store....
Hmmm! I wonder if there’s a market for a walk behind feller buncher? Should I go corded or cordless?
16:08 - Fancy lathes have polygonal turning on a separate live tooling axis (at least in my experience it has never been part of the regular tool turret). I've only used it for hex heads on fitted tapered bolts, but I guess you could do 2 flats...
Oh man. This video is FULL of quotes. I loved the Lorena Bobbitt reference.
The sprocket is the same as most commercial chainsaws, free moving so that shocks are not transmitted back though gears, allows for dirt and muck...
That saw was actuslly meant to be used against the ground. Say You have a bunch of large branches on the ground after falling a tree. You out this over the branch to be cut and push against the ground. The jaws also keep the bar from contacting the actual ground.
@Dingus E. Dow this was made for people who are too afraid of chainsaws like ladies who rather be getting their nails done while drinking Starbucks.
@Dingus E. Dow its supposed to be a safer alternative and you don't have to bend down to use it.
Yup. I bought one of these and it's really for limbs already on the ground. The chain saw lifts it up, the teeth stop the limb from spinning. The saw teeth don't get 'bull-nosed' from striking the dirt. One handed operation, no bending over. It's heavy, though and I'd never, ever get the available extension handle. Great for consumer level yard cleanup where everything has to go into bags for the trash pick up.
The fact that you found a good use for it doesn't improve the design / manufacturing flaws though. It isn't that good.
Hello Sir,
I just stumbled upon this video while drinking some morning coffee. Thank you...gave me a couple good giggles. I like your style Man. I'll be looking for some fresh content. Please keep up the great work.
My grandmother has one of these. She couldn't get a chainsaw to cut a branch if you handed it to running. This on the other hand has left all our hedges crying for a relief. At least until the 5'6" range where she cant reach anymore. But Worx sold her the extension handle... and that brings her up to 6'5". I no longer have to worry about walking into branches in her yard. I tried it out.. Think of it as a chainsaw for those branches you cant cut with your pruner, but don't really want to drag the gas saw out of the garage and mix gas and do all the work.. but you don't care about stretching out that god awful tangled extension cord, or carrying a generator around to run it. I think I've cut extension cords more valuable than the tool. don't use green ones you'll lose them in the pile of brush you make with it. That darn chain does like to pop off when you get a log in a bind...........
