Thanks for sharing sir! Reminded me of how my dad used to carry his 090’s around the bush cutting big red gums in the 80’s and 90’s. These men were real men and it was never a guarantee that they would return home from such a dangerous job. God bless them- the pioneers and founders of our once great nations!
Thanks , I just picked up a old big McCullough that someone put a mc75 in so I'm learning about them
Excellent video and information on the loggers of the past how hard they worked and dedication they had 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!

Photographer was pro ,the quality of the pictures is top notch
Great video. Thanks for the backstory on the saws and Kenny. Growing up in the PNW, the logging industry could be seen everywhere. I miss it. Thanks for the look back.

Awesome thanks again
Can you imagine running a SP 125 in a 20ft red? Wow.
Makes one’s back ache , just the thought of it!
Those were MEN among men. I got to know and work on their equipment as a young tech.
They taught me how a chainsaw tech should repair their saws.
Believe me, if their saw didn’t run as it should , there was HELL to Pay.
I was a quick learner! Lol.

We cut the smaller trees to fall the big trees on them .did you ever hear of a guy named Joe Stanger .he was my cousin and was a feller aswell for year in BC .I worked in BC in the logging industry and Saskatchewan were I owned my own company for a while till every thing crashed and lumber was worth nothing. I still cut lumber on my own mill and fire wood. I am building a 3500 square foot log house this summer. Just to keep busy.
excellent ,thanks again
Thank you too!
My dad had some timber jacks from his logging days on the Oregon coast , I ended up donating the jacks and the pump to the Coos County Logging museum in Myrtle Point Oregon.
How ya been stranger….yer ol buddy matt out here in Ky…lovin these types of history vids brother…I bought a 47” 880 and threw it on my shoulder and had to find out just is tough these ol boys were…hiked some steep country here at the house cuttin firewood breakin er in and to see a 120 feller packin a saw like that looks kinda funny but the love of the craft puts any pain or discomfort to the side….ol 394s still runnin good…thanks man…..
Hi Matt,
Good to hear from you,
Yes these Timber fallers from the Muscle Saw era were tough as they get.
Hot in summer, cold and wet winters. But they wouldn’t trade it for any other wok.
Take Care My Friend,

I suggestion on cleaning the decompression valve on a super pro 81E. I get spark on the plug when it is out and wired to the frame. Can’t get it to pop with starting fluid cuz it is quite hard to pull.
👍👍😎
Good stuff. However rather than a tape measure I carry what we call a measuring stick. Typically 104 inches with varying notches for random length logs. It is typically a hard Maple or ironwood. Also used as a walking stick😊.
Thanks for sharing
