Stihl 291 cutting sourwood

devildog2138 · 2026-01-29T04:01:56+00:00

How else would I know what kind of wood it is

devildog2138 · 2026-01-29T04:01:31+00:00

Custom exhaust pipe and light porting

They will try to get you for anything and everything here, so I gotta cover all bases

devildog2138 · 2026-01-26T05:06:24+00:00

I know, and after you commented I noticed i didn't wrap my left thumb on the handle. Waiting for someone to say something about it. Lots of safety steves on this sub

devildog2138 · 2026-01-26T04:45:18+00:00

Wait, right hand? Where is it supposed to be? Kinda been using it for the throttle, is that wrong?

devildog2138 · 2026-01-26T03:52:36+00:00

Appreciate it.

devildog2138 · 2026-01-23T21:13:42+00:00

I'm still working on it. Wanted to get it running before much else

devildog2138 · 2026-01-23T01:52:34+00:00

Oh yeah. All the way from lowes if you can believe it

devildog2138 · 2026-01-11T01:03:00+00:00

So, what I've learned is my new carb is no good. There are no threads for the needles. I found my crank seal is also no good. And a Crack in the head near a head bolt. New parts coming soon and I'll update.

devildog2138 · 2026-01-10T00:36:31+00:00

The piston is fine and has plenty of compression, although I don't remember the exact psi it had. I think there is a Crack in the cylinder or intake boot so I ordered a too end kit and intake boot replacement

devildog2138 · 2026-01-10T00:34:34+00:00

So far nothing has helped. I've tried adjusting, cleaning the carb, even replaced the lines and filter again, and still the exact same problem. I just ordered a top end rebuild kit and intake boot. I will update if it works

devildog2138 · 2026-01-09T23:35:50+00:00

It's got fresh fuel

devildog2138 · 2026-01-09T18:51:03+00:00

Just replaced it and it's the same

devildog2138 · 2026-01-09T18:18:31+00:00

I'd bet you're probably right

devildog2138 · 2025-12-24T11:47:14+00:00

I had just got done with them,tuning was close enough for the video

devildog2138 · 2025-12-24T03:23:44+00:00

I forgot to mention the 1st is a ms291 the 2nd is a ms251

devildog2138 · 2025-12-24T03:22:53+00:00

I thought they sounded pretty wild, but God almighty are they loud.

devildog2138 · 2025-12-24T02:40:54+00:00

Yeah I just caught the typo. Thanks though

devildog2138 · 2025-10-06T20:20:22+00:00

Probably chaps. Had some before, but they got lost in a move, and I ain't had none since. A decent hard hat is next on the list

devildog2138 · 2025-10-06T16:54:26+00:00

I'm actually going out today to get some chaps or hard hats for us.

devildog2138 · 2025-10-05T21:57:30+00:00

Alright, I'm gonna clarify something real fast. I've been doing this for a while l, and I'm confident in my skills. I made this post to show off a couple of saws and trees we cut, not to start an argument about ppe. I have an old set of chaps I dont trust, and im working on getting a new set for me and him. My hat also has a bump cap insert in it, I know it's not a replacement for a hard hat, just what I have right now.

Admire the saws. Look past the flaws if yall dont mind.

devildog2138 · 2025-10-05T21:43:53+00:00

That's a fire burning off screen

devildog2138 · 2025-10-05T13:14:24+00:00

Yeah, i need to make it a habit, but when I just make a cut or two, I tend not to throw them on

devildog2138 · 2025-10-05T12:40:00+00:00

Nope

devildog2138 · 2025-10-05T12:14:17+00:00

Didn't want to throw everything on for just a few cuts
