Boxing is my sport but this right here deserves more attention, respect, & honor god damn that looks so exhausting. I highly respect the focus, technique and skill of these guys.
Just bought my first saw today, Had my dads old MS250 for about 10 years. Got me a MS 362 now with a 25" bar. This is not what I was expecting to find but I may have to start watching these. this new saw is a beast and can respect the power of what saws can do now.
I've been watching a lot of timber sports lately, but I've not seen a single black person competing Can anyone tell me... i mean is it a white people thing...??
I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle ru-vid.comUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.
wow, nice competition, but @ 22:04 the great thing is: that the contestant did NOT fall onto the axe head and injure or worse slit his own throat with the axe head !! , few!! that was a close one!!
How did I get here? Using the same STIHL Chainsaw for 24 years cutting and STIHL cutting what a beauty yea! STIHL 038 Magnum quality a reliable tough grunt with power that keeps on cutting in 2019 since original purchase in 1995. STIHL! A classic... be proud... thanks to STIHL. Ansett 727.
No doubt these are strong ass men. I don’t see the drama that being put into it by the announcers. At least they don’t have a plastic hose bag with fake bags interviewing these men.
now i really feel like watching some paper boat sport-ing down at local ditch. i hope i can handle it, it gets pretty ruff out there! them boat people not messin around.
White pine is a very soft wood. Might as well use a pencil. I'd like to see a hard wood used for these events. Anything in the Hickory family. Um hum stopping to sharpen the axe or chain saw a quarter way through the cut would add more challenge!! IMO.
Has there ever been a person that thought anyone competing in timbers ports was doing it for the fame and fortune?.... Is it a sport that would grant one fame and fortune?
I think it's more to keep the saw lubricated when sawing that dry piece of lumber, it would be much tougher to saw it without. Unlikely, I think, but the heat could also bend the saw teeth.
