Filmed in January, 2021. Middle of that month. So, just under two years ago.
Through the saw building process, I've made a few great friends. One of whom works at a shop. I was entrusted to use this "mo-chine" in various "gnawing" activities. This was the first instance in a tree. Literally the first outing to the point of I started it for the 1st time that day.
This is the same "strip" where I was using my 2100, a stock 500i & the Franken 500i - seen here testing the 2nd gen 500i MaxFlow® cover assembly in prototype white, a 572 with a 38" bar, my 181/281 hybrid with a 42"er, my 481 Torque Monster, etc.
I had properly "did" Mr. "outinthewood" s 500i ~ 8 months prior. I had a fair amount of time to saw test it at varying elevations (800 to 4300 feet). It can be seen in a number of the 500i videos on this channel. I ran it with stock filtering. I used it to test the early version Max-Flow® system and provide feedback to Mr. Max-Flow for some of the minor tweaks.
There is some dialog in this session. I talk about the way this Husky runs. At that juncture, the nomenclature (number designation) was unknown. There was a lot of speculation, read rumor mill, going on all over the internet. I knew the bore size from the cylinder notation. I knew it was the replacement for the 395. I had worked backward with the calculator to get a reasonable stroke to arrive ~ the 91 (38mm) to 94cc (40mm) displacement.
Anyhoo, since this was a prototype I was hopeful that is was on the longer side stroke wise. Turns out, it has a 39mm stroke.
I will stand by my thoughts mentioned. For a purely stock saw that was the best running one I've had meathooks on.
At the time of your viewing this, I may, or may not, be immediately available for custom saw modifications. I am booked out several months regularly. If you are interested in having a saw zipped, please shoot me an email. That is the best, first point of contact.
