I dont know about anyone else but I'm impressed, any saw that pull straight thru a 40" dry walnut log is impressive, I dont care if its chinese made or American that's a strong saw

I tune while cutting hard in a log. I set the dogs and load the saw one handed, tuning the high speed jet till it pulls as hard as it can.

Uncle Cy, just came across your site today after watching some chain saw u-tube videos. You rock and that machine is a monster. I think i saw a 42" bar and chain on there as well. Greetings from Ireland and the UK

I I know the strands are so long because he’s cutting with the grain but God damn you can tell Who ever sharpened that chain knows what the hell they’re doing

Thanks for doing a 1 year review rather then a 1 month review

Hey Uncle Cy I can see my trailer between the coop and tree!!! Glad to see a update on the saw!

Wow! Walnut? Man that is the hardest pull you can make a saw do. The resistance of those noodles is extreme. Big power! Good video 👍.

Great Video! I have a MS660 clone that I do lots of cutting with but finally pulled the trigger on the new generation of the YZ105 excited to run it through its paces. Mylan from Kansas City

I own a tree business and have been in business for 10 years now. I have always used Stihl saws until 7 months ago when I started buying the blue ones. I have now purchased 5 Farmertech blue chainsaw. 660, 366, 388, 440, and a 072. The 660 was the first one I bought, it still runs great in fact I used it with a 52” bar on 7-19-19 and it cuts great with it. The same day I used the 072 with a 59” bar and it also cuts great. The 388 out of the box cut great but now it want start a long with the 444, it won’t start either and never has. The 366 ran a short time but now runs terrible. The reason I’m posting this is for two reasons. One being that my two big saws run and starts great, but all three of the small saws have not done well. The second reason is Uncle Cy could you please make a video showing how to tune the saws to run correctly and give any other suggestions about the problems that I’m having. Thanks, Steve Miller

No lugging power, pretty much looks like you just gotta let it float. It needs rpm, I'd get frustrated waiting on that thing, but you definitely know how to sharpen a chain. It would definitely do better with a smaller bar.

Those thick walnut slabs would make nice turning blanks! Keep up the great videos Uncle Cy!

Sounds good in the cut but I would bump the governor spring up one notch and set your idle up just a little bit. Nice saw though.

I didn't know ,they made a Batman saw, where's Robin

Hey bro, glad to see you pull out the big boy. I have the same saw and I love it. Mine is the farmertec version. I use it a few times a month. It is low rpm for sure. Great video. Can't wait to see what you make with the wood. 👍👍

Other saws are like a crotch rocket. Rely on rpm, but no tq. This monster is a semi truck. Low rpm and takes a while to build speed. But this thing is a monster.

I have 2 of them and on for parts put a stihl bar on it sprocket nose. Youll see a big difference. And. You have to pump that oil pump by hand. They do cut well for milling

That machine could put cross ventilation openings in both sides of a double wide outhouse.

Yeah, those ripping chains actually do well on the cross cut. They will stretch though.

I received my Cream Sickle Farmertec version of this saw in Aug 2017, mine sports a 36" .063 .404 Stihl roller tip bar & Farmertec .404 chain, the only issues I've had with mine is the fuel line cracked and leaked fuel, the clutch would slip due to the tension cone being improperly torqued , the high idle button fell apart and the air filter did not seal properly. It dose not leak oil or gas and starts every time after setting for a period of time in 8 or 9 pulls and 1 or 2 when hot. I bumped the max rpm's up to just over 9000. I to have around $450 in mine including bar and chain. Yes they do not cut fast but it takes a lot of guts to pull a .404 .063 full comp chain through 36 to 42 inches of wood cutting noodles. Other than weighing as much as 2 Christmas Turkeys they are pretty impressive.

I'd buy this thing just for the batman!!

For a cheap chainsaw definitely does the job

105cc - Looks like a good saw, I want one! Your idle is set too low, seems like.

A big engine like that, 404, 42 inch bar. Runs more like a Cummins. Very impressive. Colin NJ

Wow. Nice straight cut for freehand.

I'd say for a cheap saw that bad boy kicks ass! Also talk about a straight cut man you could make a killer table top out of those slabs of walnut

I might be wrong, but Sthil made that saw

Doesn't eject chips like your other saws? Dude, those aren't chips, that's kindling🤯

Hi Cy Glad to see you’re still happy with it! That thing inspired me, so I bought the same saw from HUZTL back in December. It’s all I want to handle it, but not scared to tear into anything. Thanks! Jeremy Meyer

That's a Beautiful piece of wood.

Id port the cylinder & muffler out

That is an impressive log. Might have to get me one of those saws.

Chips look like what comes out of my Joyner

One year the saw and bar look like like it just came out of the box. No way any of my power tools look this clean even on the first week.

I guess if ya ain't in a rush..the low rpm is mostly the problem.... nice straight cuts though... I hate seeing all the wasted walnut from the kerf..😣

with a little more RPM, would'nt that be great. one hell of a beast.

When it comes to chain saws, that's a tractor, and I mean that as a compliment. But I can't by anything from China, or try not too!

I have a big Stihl 084av that I run for cutting Green/wet birch and doug fir. I may have to look into these when I retire the Stihl.

OUTSTANDING!! 100% convinced me to do a 1yr vid (in 3 months) on my awesome 'scheppach csp2540' ($145 shipped for super lightweight top-handle, has been my 'daily driver' and it's the only 2-stroke I own that I've never had to tinker w/ or adjust the carb) Seeing those 'noodles' from your setup w/ ripper/logger chain was insane I want that power lol!! I've gotta ask though, as I'll be looking for a saw like this within the year I hope: Why go with this instead-of those 'farmer-tec' kits that are Stihl/Husq clones? Those have such a huge draw for me because I know I'll always be able to easily source replacement parts, I'm the type that wants to keep&rebuild stuff even when it may not be the smartest/most-efficient path lol and hearing you say how you had clutch issues (however simple they were to repair) makes me just think "Thank the gods he didn't have an issue wherein he needed a simple part yet couldn't source it"!!! Just subscribed, thanks a ton for this I love these vids it was @Love2Boat92's video on the lil $100-150 scheppach(/jon cutter/un-labelled, there's at least 3-4 versions/brandings of the great lil 25cc 1-handed, ~7-8lbs saw) that made me pull the trigger and, FOR THE $$$, I'm still of the opinion that *2* of these units + a 10-pack of fresh chains is worlds-better than a 192/193 stihl and is both cheaperr and WAY more reliable(w/ 2 units and back-up chains for always having a razor-edge, I've tried staying with "sharpen every time you gas-up" but in-practice I've found it genuinely UPSETS clients and ppl who are paying me (contract climbing) if I'm trying to sharpen my saw on-site AT ALL ie I'll get "why don't you sharpen before coming here?' LOL yeah it WAS sharp 2hrs ago when I got here now it's not :P But yeah my 1977 poulan 25d made me realize just how long ago chainsaws were close-to-optimized and it makes sense that it's easy enough for people to pump-out FAR cheaper units than sttihl/husq are so vids like this one here are such a treat not just for that particular 105cc unit but the whole non-major-branded niche, much kudos to you Cy I hope you check-out that 25cc unit I've mentioned IF you've ever wanted a quick 1-handed saw (remove its front-bumper/dogs and put a 12" on it, it'll never let you down!) Wish you the best cannot wait til life eases 'back to normal' so I can get back to daily youtube-with-coffee and start working through your whole catalogue here :D

That old sucker did it! Looks torque and slow like original Sthil 88

It still sounds doggy running but hey it gets the job done for a whole lot cheaper

Beast! Is this compatible with sthil 070 parts? Looking to get one but unable to find any parts online for later down the road.

IF IT'S ENDORSED BY BATMAN YOU KNOW IT'S GOT TO BE GOOD ! V.V9

I don't think you can beat that saw for the price.

Awesome 👍 video

Would it not be easier on the saw if you used a normal chain when noodling like that instead of a hungry milling chain that is ground to cut end grain ??? Just a thought

I was so worried you were making firewood of walnut which is a crime in my book. Then I heard the word/name grandberg and my heart attack subsided.

How much bite depth you have set on the cutters. The chips look like spaghetti.

Great saw,, cutting across does produce lenghty chip that can bog down any saw,, leave the he rpm as it is, bet ya lfe u mess with the engine it will go pop,, well impressed those. Great vid.

Nice one 👍👍👍👍👍👍

ya that saw dust is more like it in the milling video it looked pretty fine i figured the chain was dull

Sounds just right!

Looking good ol friend!

Starts quicker than a homeowner grade Stihl.....

Power saw old school. He has 404 chain on it. I belive. I run 3/8 skip tooth milling chain.

Great video 👍🏼🙌🏼👏

Great demo! Nice slab

Out of curiosity, what would happen if a guy stood that log up on end and then ripped it down. I would think one would have smaller chips and maybe a faster cut. Honestly, I have never heard a saw with such low rpms.

Nice

I like chainsaw

Man that’s a big saw

What is the gas mix ratio, 25:1 or 50:1 for all these cheap saws? They say 25:1. If these are truly clones, they would be 50:1. What are you all using?

Have you ever looked into high output heads from baileys online you think it's a monster now. Another $100.00 bucks and it would scream

Is cutting with the grain more difficult or less difficult then cutting against the grain

I think I'll buy one.

What do you recommend for mill the 660 or 105

Not a bad saw at all / pretty impressive in truth pulling a 404 chain threw that dried walnut . Great video ..

Very good.😆

Sounds better

Cool video thanks for sharing, can I ask out of all of your Chinese chainsaws which do you think is the best for milling? Thanks Tom

That thing sounds mean

Do those come in Diesel? :)

Now I think I need this saw lol great video I subed

Very nice saw 🙂

Ahahah my question is answered. Lol. Thanks man.

The more I used mine the more powerful it got. I ended up quartering a whole tree. Multiple times.

Great channel!!

I bought this exact 105cc saw with the 42" Batman blade and I've started it up and ran one tank of gas through it. It's amazing, I'm so excited lol. Anyways, would I be able to run a 30” bar on this saw? What type of bars will fit this powerhead? I'm going to be milling oak slabs with it very soon. I don't understand the oiler or the integrated chain break? I served in the USMC from 99-03 as an 0352 in weapons company 2/4 San Mateo California oohrah!! I was very sad to learn of your cancer brother, may god be with you as you kick some cancer ass!

It must be the low RPM that makes it seem less impressive by video. Watching from this perspective feels like my 272 would keep up with that machine. But im sure if you made a cut next to it with a 72 it would better show the difference. From watching your milling videos with this saw again, my 72 with big bar seemed to rip a 40" oak slab at the same pace. Have you compared this against any 70cc range saws? Do you feel that this saw is worth its own?..

Thanks she !!! That could make some nice gun stocks !!!

Do you have a link to your bar tip oiler for your mill? I can't find one. Thanks. Also, the listing from the link I the disruption says max speed is 12,000 rpm, fyi.

What rpm does this saw operate at? I’m purchasing one next week. Also, I need info for replacement bars and chains. Any help would be appreciated

Whoa. Same thing like from the movie The Texas Chainsaw Massacre!

That's cheap price for a saw that size

I have this very same saw, great value but I seriously need to replace the junk chain that came with it. What would be a good source for a chain. I use mine for cross cutting instead of milling.

R u using semi chisel chain it cuts faster .3/8 semi chisel would be faster agian with a faster sprocket. Depending I'm guessing if parts are available.

Did you have any problem with the chain oiler being set to high, bar oil on mine comes out to fast dripping everywhere when its runnng. Thanks

Looks like pulled pork not wood chips great video

Big ass saw! Doesn't seem to have enough rpm , although it's cutting thru the log.

Please Can you tell me on how long a Chainsaw can be used for Cutting up Logs or Trees Can they be used Continuosly with out a break and work Hours or do they have to be allowed to cool down for a while

How does it remain a cheap saw when you replace the chain and probably the bar. Luca

Good saw. Are you not cutting that log the hard way also. I wonder if it has enough rpm to run a skip chain?

How many drive links on the .404 .063 chain?

I'm trying to find a saw to run a 24 in .404 chain l took off an 08S that I changed over to a cut off saw.btw ,are those saws convertible like old oil tank on the outside stihls.?

What rpm do you run the 105cc at ? I have one in shed need to do first fire up.

looks like it cuts strait

the chips are vary stringy and long what kind off chain

Well it being a lower RPM engine all that means it should last longer .

thats no chain saw, that's a saw mill minus the building.

You would figure with that size of a chainsaw it would run a little bit faster sounds like it's running sluggish not very much power can you explain to me why would really appreciate it thank you in advance

Good video but why buy a cheap saw that big that don’t cut half as fast as a brand name saw that’s half the size of it
