Thanks 👍

Still waiting for a great hay week here in mn. Thanks for the video Walt.

Yah it’s a lil warm here too ! 😂I’d wager that saw wood mill more efficiently with a ps63 picco chain. A .404 sprocket ⚙️ turned down to the diameter of a P-7 (make a jig that goes in lathe chuck and indicate the sprocket ⚙️ before cutting) will take care of the “drive” and then you would need a bar/chain. Thinking about running this setup on a 562xp to buck rounds - already have the sprocket turned and tested with 16” STIHL picco bar and chain and it definitely cuts noticeably quicker than the 3/8 .050 chassis (smaller kerf less hp/torque required) and is a very quick 5 minute swap to go from the ps 63 to the standard 3/8 and vice versa … The only issue is finding a 3/8 picco lo pro 20” bar at an affordable price … Cannon barworks makes a “supermini” narrow kerf 20” bar but they are quite expensive to your door. The only drawback is perhaps chain stretching / link strap fatiguing breaking over time but the only way to know is to try it out. I think you mentioned in a video you were going this route in the old man saw but I may be wrong

Break out the pferd sharpener for your milling chains. They made too hungry of a chain for felling but probably about right for milling.

What brand of saw mill are you using? The lightning bolt was awesome, I haven't seen to many this year. Keep up the great videos and God bless you and your family.

What part of New York are you in? It is beautiful there.

Is that a new John Deere addition to the fleet Walt?

When you do a base gasket delete on a Husqvarna 51-55 do you grind the case or the cylinder? And how big and deep should it be?

@@afleetcommand okay so I watched the video. It shows nothing what you did to get the carburetor impulse back. I know they don't run without some kind of channel there. I was just wondering what you do

Shouldn't have to do anything. The casting on the case has a clearance to the pulse hole on the cylinder. Decking the cylinder doesn't loose the hole, if anything it can make it larger as if impinges on the "turn" that port takes as it goes from the case to the intake. If you feel the need divot the case a little more. Or die grind a slot in the case to match a slot in the cylinder flange. But u really shouldn't need to do a thing

@@afleetcommand I was doing one a few weeks ago. It was a gasket delete and it would not run. I put a vacuum gauge in the impulse hole on the cylinder. Pulled it over and it would not even bounce the needle. I disassembled the saw and noticed that there was no passage at all for it to get an impulse. I put the gasket back in it and it ran perfect

could have blocked the passage with what ever goo gasket u used, but if you have to die grind a groove it's not the end of the world either, do that on some of the 346/350 blends
