  • Them big bars are fun to play with until it’s time to sharpen em . Great video Mike
  • @6900pilot
    Great saw, she handled it well in fairness, i have a stihl 28 inch light on mine and the the 25 inch light that came with it. I love the 500i.
  • @outdoorsinthe608
    Some big old rounds! The 500 handled the 36” bar well!!👍💪👍
  • @BigelowWoodcraft
    Those are huge rounds. That is a lot of bar. Lots of firewood there. Great work.
  • 3ft’er bar on 500 , nice man enjoy that cutting. Great vid. Brother Buckin’ up big rounds 👍👍. Keep up good work Mike
  • @TwinCityFirewood
    You were throwing some chips!! Looked like it worked well!! 👊🏻
  • @765Guys
    Can’t beat the long bar for cutting big stuff over and over again!
  • Hi Mike. 36 inch bar for those big rounds makes sense. Sure seemed to have plenty power. I bet it clumsy. Make sure you always sharpen it with a hand file so that chain will last longer. The bar and chain got to be 250-275. Maybe I am way off. Kind of fun to see it work. Later .Al
  • @davidedwards3734
    A 32 inch bar is the biggest I've ever ran!! That was great cutting!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
  • @botabob
    The big rounds never split themselves. LOL Enjoy the Journey - Cheers
  • That 500i with the 36” bar would be great for trimming trees… without a ladder😂 I bet it was a bit of a handful with all those teeth grabbing! Take care Mike 👊🏻🍻
  • @FirewoodMidwest
    Got to break out the big boy for those rounds! Get a lot of splits out of those monsters! Take care Mike!👍🏻
  • @AroundTheYard-MN
    I put a 36” bar on my 362 for cutting ice (spearing holes). After seeing this, I am going to put it on the 500I and tackle some big rounds.
  • @billobermeyer660
    The answer is YES ...are you going bigger? Man those chips were flying!!
  • @LogCabinFirewood
    Lol, yes it will 100% its too much for me though, I'd prefer the 25" Those were monster rounds 💪
  • Big big rounds Mike. I’m guessing those are the ones you got from Jacob. But I can’t remember what types of wood you guys traded. You win the biggest round I think. @Ricks Outdoors had a red oak 41” or 42”. Big heavy stuff you’re dealing with. Take care splitting. Have a great day Mike. 👋👋👍🏻👍🏻🪵🪓🔥🚜
