    Hey. I have a LS MT125 and the belt is stretched already in just under 2 years of ownership. I saw where you bought a gates A117 belt but was it 2 belts or just 1? I was told by the place I got it I was looking at $200 or $300. Less than $15 sounds a lot better than that to me.

    Do you folks still have the underbrush mulcher? That would make short work out of them after getting them down on the ground with the excavator. You surely had a good time with the excavator and it does provide a little more safety bringing down the dead trees and vines. You'll have a great time with that one. Hope the rains hold off and give you time to get the vines all down. Have fun and stay safe. Fred. It's looking good around there.

    If your going to use that garden tractor for logging you should get wheel weights and fill the tires with fluid. I use windshield washer fluid because it's cheap and I can do it myself but rimguard/beet juice is best. It makes a huge difference adding 250 lbs to the rear tires for traction and stability.

    Good content! My CS 620 P with a 24" bar has become my main Saw on the family Farm for Logging, Firewood, land clearing, etc. It is much more than just a Firewood Saw. My CS 7310 is excellent as well, but it is heavy, and the 620 has way better ergonomics on the steep terrain I am cutting on sometimes, the X Series are excellent Pro Saws!

    Dude has no clue how to split wood. First of all, u don't need to try and murder it. Second, put a round on the ground as a base and then put a round to split on top of that. 3rd, actually aim the ax, aim at the edges. Fourth. Square up with the wood, feet spread apart, use 2 hands, and take a deliberate swing. Watching u do this is ridiculous

    • @OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm
      @OhioHillTopsHobbyFarm 2 місяці тому

      Thanks I'm really glad you feel your opinion matters even the slightest haha, also no need to aim for the edges when your swing is good enough to easily blast through the center. Maybe you should stick with a hydraulic splitter of this is a problem. Ahhh now that your angry just relax and realize I'm just playing. Take care and be kind.

    I just got a Timberwolf, its great. I only have owned one other Echo saw, a smaller one. Its works good for me the few times I used it. Stihl has good saws too. These are not bad for homeowner/ranch use. Echo is the Toyota of small engines. Stihl is the BMW or Volkswagen depending on how much you're willing to pay. I chatted the guy up at Home Depot and told him to give me a discount for the slightly ripped box and he gave me 50 bucks off, so I got a $459 saw for $409, I had to buy it at that price. Thanks for the video comparing the two.

    The only worry I have is damaging my 'engine/clutch' cable shaft inside from the abrupt hits and stress. I already previously destroyed one with an edger attachment and it wasn't pretty. I must research for replacement cables 'ON THE ENGINE end, NOT the attachment end........... If it was the attachment end, I could just buy new attachment shafts, and my Craftsman 2 stroke is a 25cc, so it should be just fine since most are using these on 21cc engines.

      Yes that's definitely a problem you could have! I like this blade because I use it like a chainsaw, starting into the larger pieces slow and letting it do the cutting. If you swing into bigger brush hard you could definitely make yourself some problems. In my opinion this is a much better choice than the star blades.
