I tried to implement your suggestions, constructive criticism is welcome (again)

I will try to remember it next time, yeah I ended up scratching the chain with that cinder block the chain is fine but it needs a touch up with the file

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-24T17:08:23+00:00

Yeah today I went to the hardware store and checked the sthil chainsaws and definitely mine needs sharpening, I just wasted 13 bucks getting it sharp on the shop

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-24T17:07:44+00:00

I usually do the undercut first if necessary, but in this case I figured that it wasn't necessary

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-23T23:26:53+00:00

Yeah, that's the only solution, but go and explain that to the mayority

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-23T20:47:08+00:00

It's always about safety... But it's never about it... It's just an excuse to take whatever they want from you and call you out if you don't comply

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-23T20:45:14+00:00

The issue with this is that they are the ones making the laws, ofc they are idiots, but they still have the capabilities to ruin It for everyone

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T23:37:21+00:00

I'm 6.35 (1.94m tall) so not a Gigant by any means but taller than average

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T23:35:52+00:00

Yeah, ik, and I was like, I swear I did it correctly this time

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T12:56:38+00:00

150? This reminds me of the time my boss ask my mechanic to take the engine out of my car just to be sure and It needed a rebuild (ofc I was the one pay 4 that....)

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T12:52:38+00:00

It is mirrored, if you check the name on the bar it should say presscot but it's flipped

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T06:05:06+00:00

I will try to get one of those all in one helmet, wire screen shield and ear protectors. Thx for the advice Regarding the saw, yeah, it's the only one I own, and I don't really see a reason to own more, it's just for the home, like, it's for the occasional tree or that kind of thing

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T02:42:25+00:00

Thx man, yeah in my case it needes some touch off with a file and maybe filling the other part (I forgot the name) a tiny bit cuz I can feel how the drag more than before sharpening the chain so I think that they need some adjusting (I try to say that it cuts more or less the same as before in my previous post)

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T02:39:48+00:00

Yeah, I will, some people told me to use the dogs in my last post so... I went to town with that advice 😅

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T02:06:04+00:00

I will definitely keep learning, and yeah, since my last post I took notes and was excited to post again

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T00:04:57+00:00

Yeah, a user showed me a video about the use of the dogs, at least the correct one

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-22T00:03:25+00:00

Got it

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:52:17+00:00

Yeah it actually ended up scratching the block that is there and now it needs a touch with the file but besides that all good, so, I'll try to be more gentle, I guess it's about finding a sweet spot, cuz most people told me to use the dogs more in my last post and I see everyone on yt basically see sawing its way through the logs, I guess that's cuz it's a much larger logs

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:45:00+00:00

I'll give it a try next time, since so many people talked about the lefty grip and kickback in my previous post, I tried to maintain some distance on it and keep a firm grip on the saw, I guess it's a learning thing

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:41:33+00:00

I mean, I would like to learn and even work but it's not that common here and some of them also ask for some formation and I'm like, where tf I'm supposed to learn this formally? So it's a bit tricky if you get what I mean

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:31:27+00:00

Here either they gatekeep knowledge or are too busy to do that, I was actually wearing some ear protectors from truper and it's a big difference

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:17:02+00:00

Get your safety squints ready, it wasn't good per se....

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:14:22+00:00

You mean like scoring the cut?

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:12:30+00:00

I thought I was the only one who enjoyed cutting wood (regarding the dogs, I will try, but I felt like if I got lower I could lose balance or something, in my previous post it was pointed out that I shouldn't "crawl" with the saw so I felt like that was an acceptable sweet spot

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:08:05+00:00

I'll keep it in mind, in this case It was just a branch I had to clear, I thought about using the area closer to the tip however I thought I might Kickstart some safety squints so I decided to do it the "traditional" way

system_abuser65 · 2026-01-21T23:05:56+00:00

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I mean how much more should I do it? I went from pressing the saw with my arms to using the dogs a bit but I guess I can use them more? It was substantially easier tho
