Beautiful video, my friend! Really appreciate your comments about positivity, which is why you have attracted so many great subscribers! 👍💪🙏 As far as saws close to that class, I keep coming back to the Husqvarna 359. Probably my favorite all-around firewood and smaller tree cutting saw. Back when they were regularly sold, the price point was good, and I think the value is great!
They are both nice saws for sure. I like that you can grind the divider on the 365 xtorq transfer covers and have a 372 XT, or eventually swap it all over to an XP (or big bore) top end. I think the 562xp would be best for the guy that just wants to go cut lots of wood, the 365 XT for the hobbyist that enjoys to mod as there are tons of options and aftermarket parts available.
I appreciate that you didn't forget about the 365. All about the 562 these days. I've replaced my old 272XP with a 572 and the 365. 365 isn't here yet, had to mail order one, local shops don't carry them. Piped the 572, horrible OEM muffler, horrific in fact. Thanks for not forgetting the seldom talked about 365.
The best is the one that gets your job done with the least work. Every tree and every job is different. For me that generally means a factory hot rod. A mod saw would be nice and I watch this channel to motivate me build a kinda big slightly hot rod. Backup will be the stock pro saws. 346xp and ms360. A mod 70ish cc would be fun. A 2511t is also on the to do list.
My 1990 262 still my all time favourite. Got farmertec 372 this fall. Impressed with it. But, G660 & G395 are both 8kg bare weight, exactly same as G372 I’d already ordered. To reverse my buyers remorse I’ll get one of these next. Gotta love Farmertec, built for the working man
Hey Tinman, very solid approach I would say. People have different needs and are build physically their own way. It is good to hear your thoughts on various saws because few of us have access to so many different types of saws as you do. The kid in the local shop often only knows enough saw basics to sell the odd one and may be well meaning but really doesn’t have saw background. I just scored a Jonsered 2165 and although I have never used one I feel good that its a fit for me in large from watching your vids….and thanks for them.
Everyone has a favorite old saw, but generally manufactures make improvements to their line of saws in order to continue to sell to demanding professionals. The newer saws are generally easier to live with day to day, but I still like using the old ones too.
Love your content Tinnan. I'm on my third build, thanks to your "how to port a power saw series" first build was a 52cc Dolmar 111i. Really happy with the results....especially now it has a second muffler mod done. Second build was very mild....a Chinese 372 copy....only did the transfers and a base gasket delete....exhaust opens at 96 ATDC so didn't want to move it up any more. I am wondering what you normally find exhaust opens on a genuine 372. Currently working on a Dolmar 115. Same as the 111 but closed port. Going back together tomorrow. Cant wait to ring that...building an iron horse muffler for that one. Got a few stock Stihl saws 018, 034. 500i and a Homelite 330. Want to add a couple of huskys to the mix. All saws make me happy. Thanks for your channel. Hope Mrs Tinman and bub are well.
Congratulations on 27k well deserved. Both saws looked to cut that punky willow...😆, with ease as they should. But the difference in weight would give the edge to the 562 in my book. Both wonderful saws. Nice to see stock saws run. Kind & healthy thoughts for Mrs. Tinman, TC Tinman Mahalo🤙🤙🤙
I agree on the 562 i have a ton of saws and i grab my 562 98% of the time and if i had to pick only one saw 562 would be it. Just cause its light fuel efficient and it will pull a long bar about as good as the 572xp
@@chaddean3083 ill agree with that i use 70 cc and bigger for larger stuff and 60 and smaller for little wood but i still run longer bars on them just cause i normally dont bury them in wood
@@DoyleShadduck oh there is if u get someone porting them that knows what there doing and i said they do about as well not as good of course anything bigger is gonna be stouter but as far as power to weight the 562 is superior it amazes me the amount of dumb people that comment on u tube like yall three are the only ones that knows a 572 is stouter than a 562
Have a 372xp love it. Just bought a 365 xtourc did a small logging job to day with the biggest tree being 26in on the stump. I use 30 and 32 I ch bars full house and semi scip. Like bothe saws am going to do some moffeler work on the 365 and take out the baffle plates.
I’m late but it was a great video. My favorite is what I can afford and have. Nice point about the long bar and it being away being better. But I think an 18 inch bar really wakes up a 60 cc saw. My husky 460 became more fun when I went from 24 down to an 18. But to each his own. Saws are like people each have good in them if you look!
I liked using my Dad's old Model 61 Husky, until the oil pump went out. Now I have to say my favorite is the used and abused $50 455 Rancher, it always starts and runs.
We should all be here to learn and enjoy our power saw not to bash others no time for that nonsense . I am 55 years old have been tinkering on two strokes since the early 80s and still learning keep up the good content I am sure to follow you and the ironhorse Thanks Friend for your time 8 30 pm from North Carolina
My favorite for smaller stuff is my 257 w/20" bar & a full house chain. It's a perky saw. Very old, like me. Had it since new and just good maintenance and it's still a ripper. Bigger stuff, my 288 xp. That's another story. 🙃
Having never ran either, from what I've heard, seen and read, if I had to only pick one for everything I'd prefer the 562xp. But I really like that husqvarna kept the good Ole 300 series alive for a little longer with the 365! Even if I'm not the biggest strato fan.
Willows are for wooden shoes; They don't split... Well said, there is no saw that is best. Only the best for you to do with it! I like making modifications on saws, but not pushing them to the limit. I've never used a timing wheel, just two-stroke logic And it works for me!
Run a 365 xtorq in large fir and oak in oregon with a 28in bar. Have dropped it out of a tree and several friends have borrowed it. Runs like a champ and just never gives up. many friends have commented that even full into an oak log it will pull through where their Stihl homeowner saw will just give up. Nice channel! Found you through buckin's channel.
Hey from the UK Tinman. I’ll give you a tip, the 365XT is set lean from the factory, get her dialled in ASAP. I had a piston start melting, turned it off before I totally junked it. I Rebuilt her with a Meteor top end. Respect.
interesting to see another view of the saws and bars to tackle this job with, if I were doing this job I'd take my 550xp wth 13" or a 562 with 16". horses for courses :-), had my 562 since 2015, its lovely saw, enjoy and stay safe bro
A fun video so far. The saplings kind of need to die. As a forest grows it’s trees need more room, it’s canopy keeps the young bucks at bay. Cleaning deadwood for heat is honorable, cutting it for fire prevention is noble.
You're videos are AMAZING!!! I need help!! I can't find anyone that compares the 365 special to 365 x torq, stock, for firewood and a little felling and bucking. Which one is better for power and longevity?
Watching trying to make a decision on what next Husky to buy...Leaning to a 372. I like your channel and honest reviews and tips although I gotta say, over 20 years I've not had a problem with my Stihl flippy caps I had to replace the fuel cap once because the seal was leaking but one replaced cap over 20 years of use is dang good. I don't get why they leak for some people, maybe the same reason mine did, just need to replace it for like $15
I got a bunch of saws. Usually I go with the 353xpg and 15" or 550xpg with 13". If its larger trees I'll bring with me the 560xpg and 18". But the 372xpg with 20" usually stays at home, its good but just to heavy to carry around. This is my standard set up. I think they are best balanced with those bars. And there aren't any big trees around here in mid sweden anyway. I have longer bars that I can use but it just feels like they are in the way and I loose a lot of speed. Maybe its worth to notice that xpg is a bit heavier than an xp due to handle heating, and I'm quite short. Anyway I fully agree that everyone should use the saw they like. There is not such a thing as a perfect saw for everyone and every job.
I went to a saw shop the other day and I don't know what size saw this was but it was a Dolmar and that saw was a beast , I'm going to find out more about it because it blew me away !
If you like saws, you probably have a few of them. It is interesting to me to see which saw I grab, and why. Sometimes I grab the muffler modded Dolmar 510, even though it is heavy, and not super fast, just for fun. It is smooth, and gets the job done, and who cares about 1 second when you are working. For bigger wood, I always grab either the Dolmar/Makita 7910 or Jonsred 2071 (372), both of which have longer bars and rip good. But, some years I have cut more than 1/2 of the wood with a 50cc saw, Dolmar, Echo, Poulan - whatever, if the chain is sharp. Old saws sometimes for nostalgia. But, my best all around saw for regular sized firewood is definitely the Jonsred 2260 (562). Light, fast, nimble, and solid once you figure out the stay at high idle for a half minute when starting sometimes, and set high idle when hot starting. Autotune is great, but different if you are used to regular saws. Keep up the videos. Appreciate them.
Picked up a Jonsered super 820! I think it's a 281 with the Jonsered bodywork. Needs a full wrap but I think that's going to be something I'm going to have to make.
Great to hear that message ! Just aquired my first pioneer p12. All there but the rear antivibe mount. Unobtanium. Any suggestions would be appreciated. 27000 subs and still climbing. Awesome... Hope Mrs.Tinman is doing well.
I jave a 550xpmk2, 562xp and a 592xp. 562 and 592 both run 28" bars full comp square ground chisel and the 550 gets a 20" bar. I honestly dont even know what to use the 550 for anymore lol. I can just use the 562 for light and medium cuts with the 28" or a 20". I love the 550mk2 but that thing is just too damn fast for light work and too small for the other stuff since i have the 562xp but i wouldn't get rid of the 550. In texas jere we have fat oak trees and pecan. Last pecan tree i cut was about 3.5 feet in diameter took that down with the 562xp before i got my dream saw 592xp.
How do you put a bark box on a 562 xpg mark 2 can you use pop rivots or 2 screes with lock nuts what would you suggest can the muffler be split? If you can help please let me know the barj box i have is from wcs thank you

When l bought the 365 , l thought it was a tiny one , last year l bucked a fourty inch windfall , right down to the stump , no problem . What ? No Bucking pads 👍🇨🇦
Great video....I own more saws than I can count off the top of my head. Every one of them does something better than the others. And to be honest, sometimes the mildest saws get the nod just because they are easy to start, run and are good on fuel. My 2258 and 2159 are my most used saws just for that reason. I have the "pro" versions of both, yet often they're more than you need and the increase in power is no advantage. I consider the 2258 and 2159 the best firewood saws ever made for the average person. Yet when the wood is bigger, twisted and hard I'll grab my 2165. You just learn with time what saw does what job well.
Hey Tinner!! Purchase question for ya. What’s your thoughts on the 562xp (x-torque) for $500 8.5/10 comdition Is this a good saw to have for firewood work. Wasn’t sure if you liked the xtorque or not so much. Thanks for the help bud.
My local dealership had two 562s Probably left over from year prior bought the set for right around 800 no idea about saw the only husky I’ve ever owned is a 395 and it a love hate thing with that saw she’s a moody son of a gun just cause it never gets used and when it does I pamper it needs to be run and run hard anyway I got a 20 or 24” bar on one and a 28” on the other and I’m here to tell ya I was pleasantly surprised at what a ripper they are power comes on quick always letting go of some throttle so I’m not constantly on the rev limiter and everyone was having problems starting them but couple pumps of the bulb throw the choke on a pull or two so it fires touch the trigger so choke opens up but still on high idle minute or so on high idle squeeze trigger and she’s ready never had any problems like I said was pleasantly surprised
I look at saws the same way I look at trucks. If they work, and work well for me, I like them. Edit: How do you like the 6.5 diesel? I've found a few for pretty cheap.
there is a new chain its been out about a year called ORBIT the company is out of Main USA the guy told me it is better then oragon holda a edge longer and you can tell the differance when you sharpen it
I've been running a 400c for a few months. I ran it stock and then put a West Coast exhaust/intake on it. Now it's an incredible saw for 68cc. I've never been so impressed with a stock saw before.
Only dumped it once and I learned and that was maybe 7 too years ago. Do saws drink more fuel in hot weather versus cold? i was doing a big clean up the last 2 days from a storm and just seam's to be using more fuel doing brush work
The density of oxygen is higher in colder weather so an auto tune saw will use more fuel because it compensates automatically. A saw with a manual carburetor will use same fuel unless you retune it.
I got the 365, my firewood saw for years now and it never misses a beat. Awesome little saw and light.
Love my 365, it's been such a good saw

The best is the best that suits your own needs. cheers from NZ.
For what I do my 1998 Husqvarna 261 is great. I sometimes wish it was a 262XP but at the time I couldn't justify the additional $.

Congrats on the subs. Your 100% right. It doesn't matter what you use if it works for you. I have a 45cc Echo and a 268xp thanks to your channel.

CONGRATS ON YOUR 27,000 SUBS BUDDY ,GREAT CHANNEL GREAT CONTENT STAY SAFE BUDDY THAT 562 RUNS EXCELLENT
That 562 is impressive! But I'm partial to the 365 since I own one. Lol
Both are good saws
I honestly like a saw that is a little more broad through the rpm range, which is probably like a larger displacement and older saws.
Having never ran either, from what I've heard, seen and read, if I had to only pick one for everything I'd prefer the 562xp. But I really like that husqvarna kept the good Ole 300 series alive for a little longer with the 365! Even if I'm not the biggest strato fan.
Willows are for wooden shoes;
They don't split...
Well said, there is no saw that is best.
Only the best for you to do with it!
I like making modifications on saws, but not pushing them to the limit.
I've never used a timing wheel, just two-stroke logic
And it works for me!
Congrats on 27K!!! Awesome video, I like hearing you opinion what saw and why, thanks for sharing. TC
Run a 365 xtorq in large fir and oak in oregon with a 28in bar. Have dropped it out of a tree and several friends have borrowed it.

Thabks for coming over and checking out my channel Justin.
Hey from the UK Tinman. I’ll give you a tip, the 365XT is set lean from the factory, get her dialled in ASAP. I had a piston start melting, turned it off before I totally junked it. I Rebuilt her with a Meteor top end. Respect.
They sell the gas caps at the big box stores and they fit most Echos as well. Great vid as usual Tinman!
My Stihl flip caps break with the slightest bump! It’s a bad day if you don’t have a spare! I like the screw in caps much better!
interesting to see another view of the saws and bars to tackle this job with, if I were doing this job I'd take my 550xp wth 13" or a 562 with 16". horses for courses :-), had my 562 since 2015, its lovely saw, enjoy and stay safe bro
Congrats on 27k brother! 🎇💪 happy for you big time
The zoom at 15:45..... Classic!!!😆 BTW my favorite saw is my MM 48mm 365spl. It eats everything you throw at it....
I agree unfortunately some find it easier to be negative and nitpick......why live and love life the way you want to live it and be happy.
Both great running saws👍🏻 Congratulations on 27K Tin Man

Watching trying to make a decision on what next Husky to buy...Leaning to a 372.
I like your channel and honest reviews and tips although I gotta say, over 20 years I've not had a problem with my Stihl flippy caps
I had to replace the fuel cap once because the seal was leaking but one replaced cap over 20 years of use is dang good.
I don't get why they leak for some people, maybe the same reason mine did, just need to replace it for like $15
I just picked up the 565, compared to my 365XT its got a broader power band, better throttle response, a bit more power, and loads of low end grunt.
Love your channel and I'm going to say that the 562 is one of my favorites
Yeah, I've done that too a few times. I should try some husky saws out....
Thank you finally someone who gets it they all have good and bad models
Stock, ported, nothing is going to be faster than a good. Sharp chain and the man behind the saw.
run what ya brung and enjoy it.
I got a bunch of saws. Usually I go with the 353xpg and 15" or 550xpg with 13".
If its larger trees I'll bring with me the 560xpg and 18".

I’m getting into firewood and getting some big stuff from tree guys here in Ontario 🇨🇦
Love your pozzy energy Tinman.

O like my 372xp little modedd nothing crazy and a fully stock 1989 61. For small jobs i like the 61 and for bigger job the 372 XP. Nice content.
I run a 562 with a 28 win Maine. Killer saw. Always fun to run
Tinman is the man!!! Keep up the good work and stay safe my friend.
I have the first year the 562 came out and 570 both still running strong. Yes I run the 562 more
Wow TinMan 27,000 is quite the following. Respect to you and stay humble my friend.

I like my stock 365 specal
I agree the best saw is the one that the user likes the best. I agree I prefer the non xp variants better for the wood I cut.
I have a 550xpg mark 2 it is impressive. Sure does scream. Congrats on 27k
I know my ex torque 365 is a 71 cc it's stamped on the saw I'm thinking about putting a 28-in Sahara Japanese bar on it

my 555 is a great firewood saw, been super reliable, and that’s what I like….screams and puts out when asked….what more could a man ask for?

I love the 550mk2 but that thing is just too damn fast for light work and too small for the other stuff since i have the 562xp but i wouldn't get rid of the 550. In texas jere we have fat oak trees and pecan. Last pecan tree i cut was about 3.5 feet in diameter took that down with the 562xp before i got my dream saw 592xp.
How do you put a bark box on a 562 xpg mark 2 can you use pop rivots or 2 screes with lock nuts what would you suggest can the muffler be split?
If you can help please let me know the barj box i have is from wcs thank you

When l bought the 365 , l thought it was a tiny one , last year l bucked a fourty inch windfall , right down to the stump , no problem . What ? No Bucking pads 👍🇨🇦
What’s your takes on the holzfforma brand of bars and chains? I’m also an Oregon chain user as well.
Great video....I own more saws than I can count off the top of my head. Every one of them does something better than the others. And to be honest, sometimes the mildest saws get the nod just because they are easy to start, run and are good on fuel. My 2258 and 2159 are my most used saws just for that reason. I have the "pro" versions of both, yet often they're more than you need and the increase in power is no advantage. I consider the 2258 and 2159 the best firewood saws ever made for the average person. Yet when the wood is bigger, twisted and hard I'll grab my 2165. You just learn with time what saw does what job well.
I have a 365 special and it realy rips and a 345xp for smaller stuf no complaints
Hey Tinner!!
Purchase question for ya.
What’s your thoughts on the 562xp (x-torque) for $500
8.5/10 comdition
Is this a good saw to have for firewood work.
Wasn’t sure if you liked the xtorque or not so much.
Thanks for the help bud.
I have one and it's one of my favorite saws.
My local dealership had two 562s Probably left over from year prior bought the set for right around 800 no idea about saw the only husky I’ve ever owned is a 395 and it a love hate thing with that saw she’s a moody son of a gun just cause it never gets used and when it does I pamper it needs to be run and run hard anyway I got a 20 or 24” bar on one and a 28” on the other and I’m here to tell ya I was pleasantly surprised at what a ripper they are power comes on quick always letting go of some throttle so I’m not constantly on the rev limiter and everyone was having problems starting them but couple pumps of the bulb throw the choke on a pull or two so it fires touch the trigger so choke opens up but still on high idle minute or so on high idle squeeze trigger and she’s ready never had any problems like I said was pleasantly surprised
I love my 562xp even more after porting haha but it was a ripper stock for the size weight of it..
I'd take that 365 any day over that 562 , for simple reason easy to repair and I don't need a computer to plug it into
Is That true 😮?
I was about to get a 562
But Thats a good Point
EASY TO REPAIR
I used to service and sell husky and echo how old is 562 before compression dropped some im looking at buying 562 xp
I look at saws the same way I look at trucks. If they work, and work well for me, I like them.
Edit: How do you like the 6.5 diesel? I've found a few for pretty cheap.
Both saws work good
I really like my 362 haven't tried A562 yet
I dew not own either .. but i like what i is hearing from U on the 5 6 2 xp.. probably gonna try 2 get 0ne some Day..
I like the 365 more
That’s my saw 365 special stock af I just love the sound. Any recommendations for muffler mods
Thanks!
Thanks for your support!!
27K well done ////the old 365 for me works well got a 562 2 years old will not cut lean as
I've had that happen to me as they get older it gets worse
Congrats. Curious if thats the 365xt I sold you a while back?
John
Great vid!
Great vid do you think the 365 would be powerful enough to be used with a chainsaw mill
Are you running 93 octane fuel? That might Show you a difference between the compression ratio
28 is w good length 4 most needs
Saws are like golf clubs, you need a set for all the situations.
Cheers for that Tinman ✌
there is a new chain its been out about a year called ORBIT the company is out of Main USA the guy told me it is better then oragon holda a edge longer and you can tell the differance when you sharpen it
Keep on
Keeping on
I don’t care how much you push these newer saws I’ll stick with my 272,371 and 044 Stihl with a 20 on all saws and 3120 for stumps
Yeah I like my old stuff the most for sure.
I've been running a 400c for a few months. I ran it stock and then put a West Coast exhaust/intake on it. Now it's an incredible saw for 68cc. I've never been so impressed with a stock saw before.
Only dumped it once and I learned and that was maybe 7 too years ago.
Do saws drink more fuel in hot weather versus cold? i was doing a big clean up the last 2 days from a storm and just seam's to be using more fuel doing brush work
The density of oxygen is higher in colder weather so an auto tune saw will use more fuel because it compensates automatically. A saw with a manual carburetor will use same fuel unless you retune it.
@@marcustraber thank you.
I like the 562 I have one
