Biggest saw i have is a 661c with 32 in bar. Really liking my 400c over my 500i, only run a 20 or 25 bar on 400. At 72, that's enough. Great video. Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day

Down here in Se Louisiana i used to saw with 066 magnum to cut big hardwood in our river swamps it was too wet for cutter or tree was so big. I alway wanted to run 088 or 881that thing looks like it eats!!

066 was the man back in the day like toutin a Volkswagen with a bar on it...

You start that 881 like it's a 180. I can handle a few pulls on the big Stihl before my shoulder calls it quits. If it doesn't start by then I find a shady spot and cold beverage for a bit then try again.

I took down two massive white pines here on the Florida/Georgia line a few days ago using my MS660 and an excavator. I’ve been wanting to step up to the 880 soon for the really big boys we do sometimes. Amazing saws though.

Nice work Tim. I enjoyed watching you take that monster down with the 881 but the 400 is my all time favorite. Watching you take our trees down with it blew me away.

Thanks for another great video and I always appreciate your focus on safety. We heat with wood, primarily hedge, and I really hope to get to one of your classes some day and try to soak up more of what you have to teach.

I hope you brought a 55 gallon drum of saw gas 🤣🤣 That's a lot of cuttin'. Edit: Good on you for taking care of the wood under tension or compression. That will make it much safer for him going forward with the rest of the removal. Always enjoy the content.

@perryroberts3792 4 месяца назад

Nice job on thar tree Tim. When i started cutting firewood, my dad had the Stihl 08 and 08S chainsaws. I don't blame you on using a lighter saw totrim that big old tree up. May you have a Happy Easter.

A sharp chain is what makes things happen, and show the power of the saw, awesome video bud, from Vermont

@johngrossbohlin7582 4 месяца назад

Hungry chain! I use my MS661 on the trunks of "big" trees. Then the MS261 and MS461 for cleaning up the brush and limbs. I've got bars ranging from 18" to 36" for those saws... makes me well equipped for this area's needs.

@joejohnson7097 4 месяца назад

Those big old farm trees like that one they probably got more metal in than some small barn. I enjoy watching your videos. I have some things since I have been watching. Thanks for the video

@Joemomma48 4 месяца назад

Here in Michigan that tree would be 2500$ to take down, I think 15,000 is really stretching reality.

@jdboyd1861 4 месяца назад

These videos are always so good and informative. 15K to take the white oak down if it was around a house... But how do you figure out how much to charge for it without anything around it? I keep trying to figure out a good formula to bid jobs.

@lindellparker3659 Месяц назад

@anemone104 4 месяца назад

I have an old Husky 181 that comes out to do the occasional big tree, big windblow or dead tree that needs an all-the-way-through bar. The 881 is better but the old Husky is surprisingly competent. Greener too. It's ex-British forces so it's all green all over.....

@stihlms400cm3 4 месяца назад

Nice work, you are doing Stihl MS 881 a complete injustice, nothing less than a 59 inch B&C will get this saw pulling like a Clydesdale, you could have easily felled this Oak with a MS 661, bang some wedges, no need for massive machinery, fair play to you for having such !!

@cotontop3 4 месяца назад

I could have but every time I can run it in a tree like this I make enough money to pay for the saw again, so with that being said, thank you for the view and comment 🤣🤣🤣.

Tim is the 881 on par with my old 090? Where I live in California we have Blue Oaks and I used to use the 090 to remove them running a 72 inch bar. Nice job.

What is the biggest bar that you will run on the 881?

@daveyboy6985 5 дней назад

I've used the previous model to this saw, a 880. Our work bought a custom 5ft bar and chain for it , and it handled it no worries. We also had the standard 40inch bar from Stihl for it, which we would use most of the time with the saw.

Why did you do a bore cut on the back cut? Not questioning it, just wanted to know why.

@cotontop3 Месяц назад

Because the hinge is made first

@John-gj1jr Месяц назад

@@cotontop3 As an old departed friend of mine used to say "I don't follow you". Does doing the bore cut "make the hinge first"? Or did you make the bore cut because the hinge was made first?

@vince19682009 4 месяца назад

Because they think people are stupid! 15k is ridiculous!

@benvasilinda9729 4 месяца назад

He didn’t say he was charging $15K to take it down, he said if someone had a house near that tree and wanted it taken down it, that’s what he would charge. The reason is, he would need a crane and climber and probably a full day to get that one tree down safely. Then there is the time of cutting it all up into smaller pieces and using a skid steer to get it out by the road. Then the loader truck to come pick it all up and hauled off to the dump and the dump fees. Crane fee Climber fee Ground guys(labor fee) Skid loader and driver fee Debris loader truck and driver fee Dump fee Insurance Business taxes He’d be into that tree for $10-12K out of pocket. Not to mention that’s a $2500 saw plus his time and labor in the job.

No way would I take down that tree. It would be great to sit under it on a hot summer day. Oh well maybe 150-200 plus years down the road anoher one will take it's place. Don't get me wrong. I've been cutting trees down since I bought my first Stihl in 1971 and I burn wood to heat the house. I just hate to see a that size go down.

How many lifetimes did it take to grow a tree that size. It saddens me to see so many trees killed these days. What are we leaving for future generations? It’s just easy to kill.
