Harv I’m just here because I feel welcome. I enjoy your stories, saws, tips, horses, greenhouse, dirt bikes I always learn something from yer yammering on👍I heard ya say ya want suggestions n I’m gonna give it to ya straight. Pulling stumps with a team of horses😃Or even skidding logs. I find it fascinating to watch. Only suggesting cause you asked. Thanks for sharing friend. Now give that wonderful woman of yours a big ol hug, one long enough for you both to truely feel grateful for one another💕🌎🌍🌏💕
I have an old 066 magnum that I’m trying to resurrect and finally got it running yesterday. It was truly an awesome feeling to accomplish that. It was a basket case. I’m just getting into rebuilding old saws and have learned so much by watching your channel. I also have a later model 066 and an ms 660 that both need the top end rebuilt. I’m not quite ready to port but would love to see those running as well. I got interested in these old saws because of my late best friend logged. He spent his life saving money and rebuilding old equipment while working a 9 to 5 job and finally was able to start logging timber like his grandad did. A short time later he started having some medical problems that led to him losing his life. By building these saws I hope to keep his memory alive. I actually was given his 390 to me by his dad last week and will be cleaning it up very soon. I just wanted to say thanks for the content you share and look forward to more.
We Love you IronHorse. I love everyone of you educational videos and I love how you share your wisdom with us. You are a humble leader with high moral values. Just so inspirational.
Great to see you Harvey. 20-30 minute vids are a good length, info at the start & story after. You've done a lot on larger saws, how about some simple tricks to smaller firewood saws say 40-50 cc? Just a thought. Enjoy life.
Never run a cannon, but I have been running a 24” tsumara light weight and I freakin love it! The weight difference is noticeable on my 372 compared to a Stihl or Husqvarna.
Love ya harvey and ur channel. Props to u for sharing so much of ur life and knowledge with us all. Sending much love from WI! Take care of urself and I look forward to more videos!
I tried all the light bars and Cannon is by far the toughest, but as you said they are also very expensive. I think I pay around 100$ for a 28in SugiHara/Tsumura Light, and the 28in Cannon Light was around $240
Use Stihl lightweight on my Stihls and like a Sugihara bar on my Husqvarnas...in the Great Pacific Northwest...we alway use a Full Wrap handle OSHA violation to cut timber with half wrap farmer handles....your hardwoods so small in the East you need to get those extra few inches off the stump...Shoe
I like the man in front of the camera, that's what makes your videos interesting to watch. You've done a lot in your life and have interesting content.happy 4th of July
You being a medic in your past life. Do a video on what we should carry with us to the woods for first aid in the event we cut/hurt ourselves. I carry a first aid pack with me but lots do not carry anything. Even a good supply of water to prevent dehydration, snacks etc. Show us what we should take to the woods besides a saw and gas and oil. 👍
Love the fact that you are back on video, Harvey! I love listening to you talk, brings back memories of my old college buddy who was from your area. I'm a rank beginner with the chainsaw work, so I'm open to just about anything you'd want to do. 👍
Sunday morning. I was like what. Until i saw NZ. Lol. Love NZ. Drove both islands bottom to top. 5 yrs ago. Beautiful. Have a friend here in the states who has a fishing cabin on taupo lake. North Island
Hi Todd, if you ever get the chance to visit again check out lake Waikaremoana, situated north east of taupo in the Urewera national park. Google earth it. Ive been a member of the fishing club since 1969 and love the fishing, isolation and virgin bush. Cheers
Good to see you Harvey! Have a great 4rth of July! Love all your vids. For an old guy ( me ) trying to learn to run saws on my own, videos of tuning the saw, or even fuel mixtures and why, or even how much oil the bar should get would be awesome! Take care good sir!
Glad your back this week Harv! It’s great that you have the time got get a couple of videos out. I like the idea of frequent short videos. But then again I’ll watch and length video from the Ironhorse! I have a 32” TsuMura bar but have always wanted to try the Canon. Now I feel like I have more information that would help me to decide if I wanted to or not. Thanks for all you do Harv. I hope you and the family have a great Independence Day!
Thanks for the tip on the peach, should go well down here in Tassie. I'm a big fan of the half hour or more instructional videos, but the super chats has knobs on it. I don't have an hour or two to watch a youtuber look at the camera and say hi to people. Subbed to you on Rumble, I was hoping for some Ironhorse rants. I would love to see you finish your reed valve saw and also get a forced induction saw off the ground like you talked about. The video I would like to see the most is what you did to the P38, I know you don't want to see people get into trouble but if they are silly enough to do your ideas badly be it on their own heads. Sorry for the long post. Blessings to you and your family.
I don't comment much, but I do watch all your videos. 10-12 minute "how-to" videos that are direct and to the point explaining what you are trying to accomplish are great. Often these are needed especially when the "Oh shoot, what's wrong" happens in real life. Been there and done that and the direct to the point video is a god send to get back to work. But I also really appreciate Harv the Storyteller and Harv Rant videos, regardless of length. SQUIRREL!!! Gotta go!! Love ya Harv!!
Good seeing you in the shop Harvey. We don't need long bars in Northern MN either. No old growth left up here. 12 to 16 inch is the norm for hardwood up here. Aspen can be a touch bigger but it cuts easy compared to our Birch, Oak, and Maple. Oh sure you may run across a 28 inch tree now and again but it's not that often. get your better-half's rig done man. A guys' gotta eat. Happy Independence day everyone! Remember what those guys did for us way back when.
I have a laser bar which has a tsumara tip on It. It's a heavy lightweight bar for my 390xp. Fantastic bar and it won't bend when ya lay on the throttle. Light as a feather. Stay well harv
Must be a rainy day. Get the 25 foot roll of line, easier to run from front to back and flare both ends. A lot of times I recycle the fittings, cut , grind flush and drill out the left old line. I have done a lot of line restos. The projects never end...... have a great 4th Harvey....
Great review on the bars 👍 I would like to see you in a video thigether with Bucking Billy RAY and Tinman and have few shrimps on the BBQ. It would be great fun.regards from down under if the timing is wright I'll bring the kangaroo 🦘 stake.
Working on Barb’s Jeep brake lines are (like other vehicles) is going to be a work in progress. It’s going to take some time. Good knowing about those different bars as well as the sprocket commentary. It’s good information to have 👍 As always Harv (Man lol ok) glad to see you! Good bye (until next time).
Awesome topic Harv,how about a video on engine balance?I've been building a couple saw's and I see aftermarket piston's that weigh 7 gms more than factory.I dress the skirt and it only lightens the piston 1 gm if I'm lucky.I know from building performance car engines the importance of balancing the rotating assembly and how a small out of balance magnifies with rpm.Thank You Very much for all the Knowledge and tips You share.Happy 4th of July from Northern Saskatchewan.
yes that would be good , but youd think being a single cylinder only the crank could be balanced, on my stills i could see factory balance marks, but on the farmertec nothing, im waiting for a hyway crank since theyre meant to be better than farnertec. i did wonder if anyone splits genuine stihl and husky cranks in half like they do on bikes to rebearing the original cranks.
Harvey i dont care how long your videos are i watch em all. but yeh man you have so many things to share with us you have so many skills, go with your heart i say then youll enjoy doing videos.
Yeah weekend has been fun so far. Bought a Same Panther 90 from a salvage yard on Friday runs good needs a clutch but can't ask for much better for only $1,000. Yesterday went on a tractor ride with a 530 Case and Deutz Allis 6240. If you think that is an odd combination the Deutz is the only sorted tractor short enough to fit on the trailer with the Case down here by the farm.
Howdy Harv! I'm glad to hear that you planted Alberta's, I planted a couple this spring here in southern Wisconsin, I'd sure be interested in the green house and garden. Do you ever hitch up a team and plow?
Good info. Looks like the Cannon might be better for a standard width cut, while the Tsumara might be better for a narrow width cut. Thanks. Take care.
Hey Harvey, any short video would be great! Show us a day in the Ironhorse world! Working on Barb's jeep, feeding the animals in the pasture, your peach tree's, some of those big block engine's in the shop? Ken
I never grease my tips for a simple reason, they're sealed until you grease them. The first tome you grease them you break the seal then you need you grease them all the time. I know some old timers are stuck in thier ways but just try running a bar and never grease the tip to see how long it lasts, I've had some last for up to 5 years of pretty hard use before they blew.
I think you should start off making short videos with the most commonly asked question for chainsaws: carb adjusting. Also, gardening videos would be fantastic. Heck, anything you want to do would be fantastic!
I must comment about the Superchats. " I believe a man ought to earn what he gets. I don't want to feel like a TV Evangelist Preacher......'Hey send me your money'. I'm not gonna fawn all over you in a Superchat either." BOOM! He just summed it all up quite succinctly. The man has a quality lacking today in most people.............CHARACTER.
I’ve found the style oil hole on the cannon doesn’t accept debris in the direction of chain spin. The Tsumura can get packed with stuff though it has enough room for oil to still flow. Good video Sir!
Thanks Harv your great help. hope to learn how to learn to use utube and smart phone to ask questions but need to teach myself how to talk to you , Tinman . Buckin and a couple others . You show what im looking for i just dont know how to find it but i will. . great vidios
@@theironhorse6600 I love the durability of the cannon bars they are a little heavy but they last a long time and yes they are pricey I found a supplier in Connecticut there under $300 depending on the length , how your health Harvey you sounded kinda weezy bud hope your ok .
Harv for a vid suggestion how about the art of canning for learning by younger folks when harvest time hits. We still do a little and it is needed learning for many folks today. Be safe and be careful.
Harvey alls you have to do sit down and video short story's. Just tell us what you have ran into.10 minutes or something of the sort. I kno all your subscribers love hearing your experiences. Your a likeable guy the chainsaws I feel were just bait. You keep us on the hook at least that's how it is for me you remind me of my uncle's. Happy Birthday America thanks for your service Harvey thank your boy too.
Harvey set that camera up when your outside the bunker. I would like to come help/learn from you anyone willing to spread knowledge is worth the extra effort. Keep being you.!!🦾we for sure want to see the green house. And barn🪓 Kindness and love.
Enjoyed the bar comparisons. Keep the saw talk coming. Would love to hear your thoughts on the NEO-TEC 90cc out of China. Wilber, SC, Husqvarna 572xp & 55. I’m a DIY’r
Hey Harv, that is an excellent review on aftermarket LW chainsaw bars, I just received my very first Tsumura LW bar for my jonsered 2260, both of which are rare as hens teeth, what are your humble opinions on the Sugihara and the "new" asof this year husquavarna Lw bars, I know the Stihl Lws get excellent reviews for the most part, also just received my jonsered 2156, I love it, you talk about some revs, also what are your opinions on the Shindaiwa saws, I know they are for the most part just rebadged echos, would you be willing to do a video on a 600sx, I just want to see some love given to the Shindys thanks again Harv!!
The original bar that came on my jonsered was a Total bar. We know it is a Tsumara bar. That bar lasted twice the life of the bar that replaced it. The replacement was a Oregon Power Cut. Those Tsumaras sure have harder rails and need way less dressing. Oregon bar tips tend to suck also.
Hey Ironhorse, he's the man for you!🎵🎶🎵🎶. You're talking Jeeps, now you're talking my language. I built a 74 CJ5 and restored it frome the ground up, it's the business I'm in so I did a proper sandblast and paintjob, fab work etc.. I put a Cummins 4BT Turbo engine in it with a 4 speed and an auxillary overdrive. If you can put your email in here, I'll email ya some pictures. You'll love it, I know this because I won a few trophies with it. Take care buddy, happy 4th!!
Uncle Harv if you were to get super chats you will have earned every penny and then some. You knowledge and time is very valuable to me. Shop rate is expensive and you have save me hundreds and hundreds of dollars, and for that I thank you sir. Love ya brother. 🌲❤🌲✊🪓
I'm sure I've watched every video on the channel and hardly ever stop before the end but I've always wanted to see more actual chainsaw action, more cutting, more testing. All the build info and other stuff is good but sure be nice to see and hear them saws running some more. Cheers Harv
I know you're not in this for your money Harvey! But I think it's up to us viewers to decide it want to give you some pocket money or not? If you do a live stream and check button on for Superchat then it up to us! Especially for us in Sweden that have to pay back some money you have sent us for all Husky & Jonsered gears and parts! Haha! [After that we can start some payback competition from Germany and Japan (but probably not from China yet). ] If you go for shorter videos it's okey, but please no YT-Shorts, if it isn't any special and remarkable that you want to show us hastily direct after it happened, like a newborn mule! ;D Keep on with a good summer Harvey and whole family!
the only bad part of the Tsumura bar is the tips, I blow tips on those things all the time, with only the 4 rivets on there, makes them so weak. if they fixed their tips from breaking they would be that much more amazing
Hello IronHorse, and thanks so much for all your expert instruction and quality commentary ! I'm learning aplenty ! I'd like to ask you something, if you don;'t mind though ? I just bought a Makita / Dolmar EA6100p. I got a super deal from Home Depot because it was a rental saw that they were selling, which they do on a scheduled basis with all their rental tools. My question is: Can I run a 28" Tsumura bar & chain on this saw if I port the saw ? I know I can run a 24" on it, but I'ld like to put a 28" on it. I figure I will port the saw, ( by doing it myself and following your instructional videos ), and if it's ported right, it should pull a 28" bar. I'd love to get your opinion on this. Thanks !
Have run Tsumura & Sugihara 24”, Oregon Prolite 32” and 28” Stihl ES Light. The Stihl and the discontinued Oregon are my favorites. The Stihl is light, rigid, and costs the most for a reason. Yes
Brake work is fickle. Once I make up my mined that it all has to get the big elbow. I try and save s--t out. Wheel cylinders for me are left off the list until the Paine creeps in I find my self going down the road for an hr. to get the right ones.
Hey buddy it’s nice to see you. I hope your feeling well. I hope your knees and your back are feeling ok. My wife has a bunch of hardware in her back and the weather can put her in severe pain. But she refuses pain pills. So she does injections. I hope barb is doing well too!! So I took my step boys out metal detecting on an old foundation from the 1800s. We found two old horse shoes and some pieces of leather I think is from an old saddle. Some old hand forged nails and some small metal/ iron pieces that I’m not sure what they are. I was wondering if I emailed some pictures to you maybe you might know what they are??? Have a nice day Harvey and as always WORK SAFE
I'd like your opinion on taking rakers way down. I've been filing about an additional 16th or more. It dulls the chain a bit faster but boy does it pull some wood
I believe excess lowered rakers puts more wear on the rear of the link that contacts the bar. It causes the cutter links to rock back a bit more than optimum. There’s a sweet spot with the rakers where the chain can keep the links inline as it ‘swims’ through the wood as in one linear line unit. It’s also suggested that allowing maximum chain speed is better than the cutters chunking bigger chips with torque that extra low rakers will cause. I hope that makes some sense.
Hey br0.. I want 2 see U run the Cannon bar 0n A Husqvarna & the Tsumarra Barr on something close 2 the Husqvarna U choose br0.. please.. so I can see witch Barr I may change 2 , or save up. 4

Thanks for the video Harvey, it was good seeing ya! I like all of your videos regardless of subject matter or length.

You are a humble leader with high moral values. Just so inspirational.
I love ya harv. Anything you make, I'll watch. I love learning from you, you're great!
Glad to see you again, be safe w/ automotive repairs🌞
How to fix a oil leak (bar oil) would be something I would like to see...all my saws leak. Thanks Harvey, glad to see ya back!
good to see you posting again. Set a date for 2022, i'd love to travel down from Mass to talk saws.
I run those light weight bars on my 390xp and 395 and never had a problem .

Cannon bars are awesome,we used 6 foot cannons for ripping overweight logs in half when we were heli logging on the coast of British Columbia
Harv for a vid suggestion how about the art of canning for learning by younger folks when harvest time hits. We still do a little and it is needed learning for many folks today. Be safe and be careful.
Harvey alls you have to do sit down and video short story's. Just tell us what you have ran into.10 minutes or something of the sort. I kno all your subscribers love hearing your experiences. Your a likeable guy the chainsaws I feel were just bait. You keep us on the hook at least that's how it is for me you remind me of my uncle's. Happy Birthday America thanks for your service Harvey thank your boy too.
Good seeing you Harv have a great holiday !
Harvey set that camera up when your outside the bunker. I would like to come help/learn from you anyone willing to spread knowledge is worth the extra effort. Keep being you.!!🦾we for sure want to see the green house. And barn🪓
Kindness and love.
Harvey how the hell are you doing nice to see you
Enjoyed the bar comparisons. Keep the saw talk coming. Would love to hear your thoughts on the NEO-TEC 90cc out of China. Wilber, SC, Husqvarna 572xp & 55. I’m a DIY’r
I coulda swore the stihl bars were the lightest out of the group
Be good to see more cooking with uncle Harvey
The buffalo chicken was great
Good to hear from you Harv!!!!
Hey, glad to see you again Harvey! Ken
Hey Harv, that is an excellent review on aftermarket LW chainsaw bars, I just received my very first Tsumura LW bar for my jonsered 2260, both of which are rare as hens teeth, what are your humble opinions on the Sugihara and the "new" asof this year husquavarna Lw bars, I know the Stihl Lws get excellent reviews for the most part, also just received my jonsered 2156, I love it, you talk about some revs, also what are your opinions on the Shindaiwa saws, I know they are for the most part just rebadged echos, would you be willing to do a video on a 600sx, I just want to see some love given to the Shindys thanks again Harv!!
Hey brother glad to see you
The original bar that came on my jonsered was a Total bar. We know it is a Tsumara bar. That bar lasted twice the life of the bar that replaced it. The replacement was a Oregon Power Cut. Those Tsumaras sure have harder rails and need way less dressing. Oregon bar tips tend to suck also.
Subbed - I like how your style!
Hey Ironhorse, he's the man for you!🎵🎶🎵🎶. You're talking Jeeps, now you're talking my language. I built a 74 CJ5 and restored it frome the ground up, it's the business I'm in so I did a proper sandblast and paintjob, fab work etc.. I put a Cummins 4BT Turbo engine in it with a 4 speed and an auxillary overdrive. If you can put your email in here, I'll email ya some pictures. You'll love it, I know this because I won a few trophies with it. Take care buddy, happy 4th!!
Uncle Harv if you were to get super chats you will have earned every penny and then some. You knowledge and time is very valuable to me. Shop rate is expensive and you have save me hundreds and hundreds of dollars, and for that I thank you sir. Love ya brother. 🌲❤🌲✊🪓
Good video great info
Have a GREAT 4th OF JULY EVERYONE , BE SAFE
A good majority of the corn around where I live at are already at chest height or a bit higher. I'm 6ft 2
I'm sure I've watched every video on the channel and hardly ever stop before the end but I've always wanted to see more actual chainsaw action, more cutting, more testing. All the build info and other stuff is good but sure be nice to see and hear them saws running some more. Cheers Harv
I know you're not in this for your money Harvey! But I think it's up to us viewers to decide it want to give you some pocket money or not? If you do a live stream and check button on for Superchat then it up to us! Especially for us in Sweden that have to pay back some money you have sent us for all Husky & Jonsered gears and parts! Haha! [After that we can start some payback competition from Germany and Japan (but probably not from China yet). ] If you go for shorter videos it's okey, but please no YT-Shorts, if it isn't any special and remarkable that you want to show us hastily direct after it happened, like a newborn mule! ;D Keep on with a good summer Harvey and whole family!
the only bad part of the Tsumura bar is the tips, I blow tips on those things all the time, with only the 4 rivets on there, makes them so weak. if they fixed their tips from breaking they would be that much more amazing
Hello IronHorse, and thanks so much for all your expert instruction and quality commentary ! I'm learning aplenty !
I'd like to ask you something, if you don;'t mind though ? I just bought a Makita / Dolmar EA6100p. I got a super deal from Home Depot because it was a rental saw that they were selling, which they do on a scheduled basis with all their rental tools. My question is: Can I run a 28" Tsumura bar & chain on this saw if I port the saw ? I know I can run a 24" on it, but I'ld like to put a 28" on it. I figure I will port the saw, ( by doing it myself and following your instructional videos ), and if it's ported right, it should pull a 28" bar. I'd love to get your opinion on this. Thanks !
absolutely ported.
How about a time-lapse video of you working on a saw with some Benny Hill type music in the background?!? Sounds like fun!!!
every time i get on my youtube subscriptions THE IRONHORSE the first one i look fore new
Glad to see you sir. Happy 4th!
The cannon looks a lot like a Oregon light weight
Wld love to see a video from the dirt stk car track u mentioned buddy
Great video sir. Do you ever use the stihl light bars? And what do you think of them.
Have run Tsumura & Sugihara 24”, Oregon Prolite 32” and 28” Stihl ES Light. The Stihl and the discontinued Oregon are my favorites. The Stihl is light, rigid, and costs the most for a reason. Yes
Aloha Harvey, saw vacuum leaks and gaskets.
Brake work is fickle. Once I make up my mined that it all has to get the big elbow. I try and save s--t out. Wheel cylinders for me are left off the list until the Paine creeps in I find my self going down the road for an hr. to get the right ones.
Harvey on a stihl 880 can i convert the 404 pitch to a 3/8 pitch so i can run a smaller bar im getting old lol
I love the videos iron horse I dont care what it I'm going to watch this is from Anthony from va
Hey buddy it’s nice to see you. I hope your feeling well. I hope your knees and your back are feeling ok. My wife has a bunch of hardware in her back and the weather can put her in severe pain. But she refuses pain pills. So she does injections. I hope barb is doing well too!! So I took my step boys out metal detecting on an old foundation from the 1800s. We found two old horse shoes and some pieces of leather I think is from an old saddle. Some old hand forged nails and some small metal/ iron pieces that I’m not sure what they are. I was wondering if I emailed some pictures to you maybe you might know what they are??? Have a nice day Harvey and as always WORK SAFE
Let’s try! Ironhorsechainsaw@gmail.com
Looking well Ironhorse
a watch every video.a like long videos but sometimes short videos are good too. it would be intresting see more videos about yours dirtbikes.
Hi Harv nice to see you back on this platform 👍👍 what’s your thought on the holzfforma bars ??
I'd like your opinion on taking rakers way down. I've been filing about an additional 16th or more. It dulls the chain a bit faster but boy does it pull some wood
I believe excess lowered rakers puts more wear on the rear of the link that contacts the bar. It causes the cutter links to rock back a bit more than optimum. There’s a sweet spot with the rakers where the chain can keep the links inline as it ‘swims’ through the wood as in one linear line unit.
It’s also suggested that allowing maximum chain speed is better than the cutters chunking bigger chips with torque that extra low rakers will cause. I hope that makes some sense.
How about a video on improving cold starts. I have two saws that start great and two that can be difficult.
Hey br0.. I want 2 see U run the Cannon bar 0n A Husqvarna & the Tsumarra Barr on something close 2 the Husqvarna U choose br0.. please.. so I can see witch Barr I may change 2 , or save up. 4
