And just to make it all “legal” here, the two guys in your video with the “Chain Break” jerseys on are running a saw powered by a ‘65 Fairlane 289 punched out to 302……..so it is FORD power!

years ago we did firewood and one of the saws was a stihl 088 with a 59 inch blade.
it made fast work of large trees, but was heavy at 22+ pounds. it would wear you out real quick.

What? Are you new to this group?
We are very easy to send down rabbit holes.
Good thing I’m on my phone or I would lose an hour or two on chainsaws driven with car engines.

I was at a logger museum once where they had a bunch of huge 2 man chain saws, and that's what I was looking for when I stumbled onto the car engined one. That was a new one for me. I can't imagine lugging 700+ pounds of V8 chain saw like those guys, and gals, do. But the history of this amazes me.
