Today I'm working on using my stihl 461 chainsaw to cut up some fair sized firewood rounds. Some of it is kind of some stuff with crotches in it but I'm grateful to have it. I hope your all having a good day and thanks for watching.

Gutbusters...a blessing and a curse!

[@Hugh1966]

Chain is sharp Ben ✅ good job man .

[@aldiminico6513]

Ben. You never back away from the tuff trees. Keep it up👍

[@traviscover590]

I like your new video you did a really good jop this is big firewood nice firewood you will get all down buddy goid jop on your video buddy

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

Thanks Travis. I appreciate it man

[@NotSureJoeBauers]

Neil Koch made a really sweet splitter attachment for his backhoe. Having the machine to crack down the big rounds is really handy. I'm honestly impressed at the size wood you get there. It rivals and even trumps the stuff we get heree in the pacific northwest. Gut busters for sure

[@crazyman3157]

Great to see you again Ben. Those are gut busters! Nice looking wood pile you have going.

[@outdoorswithlarryrobin]

Beautiful here in Northern Virginia today! 68 degrees! Nice set up, Bobcat Mussel! 💪🚜🪵👍🏼🇱🇷

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

It sure comes in handy

[@DanielAtkinsFirewood]

The 461 was cutting awsom.. I noodle the bigger stuff I can split down, so that seems to help a little..

[@leonardvirtue5753]

Nice.😆 mate Cheers.👍 😆.💪

[@paulwagner5367]

Your lucky to have that nice equipment to work that big stuff

[@craignash4736]

You put a nice edge on that chain . Congrats lol. Save yourself a couple of bucks , some guys pay to get that done . Good video. Craig. Pa.

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

Thanks man. A little guy like me can get a lot of use out of a chain

[@tonykeller2839]

Enjoy your videos Ben👍👋 l love working big wood for firewood too, just don’t want a lot of knots/crotches!! And my experiences with hackberry while it makes good firewood, it just can’t stand much water!! Deteriorates very easily even the exposed ends while stacked!! Take care!!

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

Thanks man

[@Living-The-Dream]

A wireless Mike to cut down on the wind noise would make the video’s more enjoyable. Just a thought Ben...... 😎🪵🪓🔥👍👏

[@gboz4245]

Let’s hear more about this Mike guy.

[@ericsalyer2869]

Have to watch pulling on the saw like that. It’s hell on the av mounts and bar studs

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

I went too far with some of the cuts. Should have pulled out sooner

[@ericsalyer2869]

@@survivingcountrylife7069 it happens
I carry around a couple small Oregon wedges
The tiny yellow ones for like 6$ at hardware store
They fit in my pocket
As soon as the bar is down a few inches I slap one in there

[@megamike4357]

That dead and dry ash will make a good chain dull quickly some days.

[@andywyland2761]

Hey Ben great video!! That saw would really rip with a muffler mod and the other set of bucking spikes on the chain cover

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

That would be nice for sure. Its on my bucket list someday

[@Hugh1966]

What type of muffler mod man ?

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

@@Hugh1966 if you mean me. There's a guy on Facebook named Jason Egan that I would love to have go through my saw some day. He seems very well thought of

[@outdoorswithandy732]

That's looks like some good heavy wood, are you going to Wolfe ridge manufacturing in June?

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

I wish. I can ask the wife. Haha. But we stay pretty busy with our baby

[@logginlogan6796]

Hehe, subsCRIBE! Looks like the Saws cutting pretty nice. I wonder how crazy that knot piece of ash will look like when you saw lot that open.

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

I'm gona have some knots to split for sure

[@min-dakwoodhound7314]

may need to noodle those things so you don't get severely injured handling them.

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

I agree

[@geesss8675]

Are you a farmer by day and wood cutter, burner, spliter by night/weekend?
What is Hackaberry?

[@survivingcountrylife7069]

I wish I was a farmer. I work at a soy bean process plant. Hackberry is a type of hardwood tree around where I live. Not the best but not bad

[@bigDH123]

Nice video Ben, those rounds will give both you and the Eastonmade a good workout. Thanks for sharing and see you on the next one.
