26cc blower RPM: 7360 with new muffler plugged, 7860 with new muffler (4.5mm outlet), 7960 with new muffler & 6.5mm outlet, 8040rpm with normal muffler (which is actually modified for more flow). I was going to try no muffler, but it was way too loud to wait for the 4 stroking to clean up. It...

As ghetto as your 462 air filter cover :D

I muffler modded my 23cc poulan blower, we'll see how it does in the day time, but I got it started, and it runs well with the propane tank muffler with a 3mm exhaust opening. In fact, it spools up with that opening closed off too because there are some extremely small leaks in the gaskets. It...

Such a muffler would need inventing. Muffling is accomplished by smoothing out the sound waves coming from the engine. No muffler gives you probably a squarish saw tooth wave, a standard muffler gives a more sine wave like saw tooth wave, but fully muffled would produce no sound waves, just a...

Why through water? Maybe pipe the muffler to an external super muffler on the mill, or a backpack muffler for portable use. I figure a flex steel tubing insulated with fiberglass held on under a wire mesh sleeve would make a good conduit to the external muffler.

Gotta have some hearing left over without using earplugs to hear the trees talk to you as you fell them. For safety reasons and such. I think it would be fun to try to make modified mufflers that are both quiet and high flow. Obviously they would be bigger even to the point of wrapping around...

You can make a light weight core bar with hard rails. Sugihara is supposed to be one of the most durable from what I've heard. I figure way more than necessary resetting of the dogs and leaving out in the elements to rust contributes to early paint wear, but heat is definitely the #1 cause. Run...

I know we got only $600-$1000 in bars and chains this year (6x 14" chains, 2x 36", 2x28", 5x 14" bars, sprockets...) well an MS150 too. Plus parts and stuff. I guess we ran up near $2000, but we lost like $400 of chains in a tool box that was misplaced, and we haven't needed them, so I'd count...

I kept wanting to put spikes on my 271t, but It doesn't have much power worth levering on. I wouldn't ever want to use it for big cuts in a tree, though I have, and yes I did kinda want the spikes to lever on then, but I just waited while the saw did the work. I did a minor muffler mod on it...

I heard the stock 261 is way better than the 026 even though older saws seem to be more powerful than the newer designs these days. HP specs put it ahead of the 291 I think. I've got a 2511t getting ported next week. It should about keep up with a 201t. Porting is just the way to go in my...

I'm hoping to find one without the M-tronic, though people seem to like them. I too have recently decided to get a 261. Not now, but it's on the list, and it will be ported by Master Mind. I was going to get a ported 362, but the 261 is so much lighter while having more power than a lot of stock...

Did Husqvarna make them? That wasn't even broken in yet, it looked like 30 seconds through pine with 24" bar. Comparing to my 2188 which maybe on it's 5th tank of gas was cutting around 24"oak with 20" bar in just over 20 seconds, so they seem pretty close.

I don't know about the dolmar, but my 2188 had almost all I wanted which is why I got it: Husqvarna 390 at a discount, outer rim sprocket, good power to weight ratio, I like the 3 setting oiler which does about either 1/3, 2/3, or >1 tank oil per tank of gas. Only down sides are parts...

I forgot about spikes, my 271t doesn't even have plastic dogs, it sucks in that way but still chews through wood pretty well. It's about time I mod some of my stuff. I think there's a muffler mod for the 271t just like most any saw. I might take apart my 2188 soon if it isn't too much trouble...

Poulan was my first too, I put a lot of use on it until I borrowed my dad's 359. That thing was like going from a clunker to a Rolls Royce, it was smooth like a knife through butter, the first time I experienced anti vibe. I'll make my question more specific by stating that I've already...

I knew those poulan jokes were coming, but I thought you guys would know better. I figured there could be some resistance to the question, though I'm not sure why, I just had a feeling. Anyway, I think it's a good valid question with new models coming out, and new models that have been around...

What are the best saws of today, preferably ones that are still made. Which ones have the manufacturers worked the kinks out of, have the best bang for your buck, and just run amazing while having great durability? A friend of mine has a bunch of wore out saws I'm starting to fix up for him, but...
