Could you please advise me on the best clone to go with at around 70ccs and then 92ccs? I am half handy and like the accomplishment of putting together & fixing but it can take me a while to get around to it. My focus is on starting well and reliability rather than absolute speed and peak performance. I will probably only cut two or three trees maximum per year (8 to 22 inch White Oaks) unless I help out neighbors after hurricanes here in Florida a couple times.
You might want to go with Farmac/Holzforma ... I've had pretty good luck with their saws. If you're only cutting that much, you could probably just get the one saw and make it work for all your needs. Be careful out there!
Just ordered my neotech 895 with a 36” bar today. I also got a proyama pcs68 as well. I’m hoping to enjoy them, my husky 450 died after 18 years and wanted to replace, wife approved me spending nearly $1k on a 372xp but while researching that saw I found all these clone videos. I went from 1 saw with a 20” bar to 2 saws with bars ranging from 18”-24” and 36”. Any tips or videos for tuning it? I’m going to look through your videos and others videos.
Tuning is just the typical protocol -- working those screws and getting it dialed in. There are some good tutorials out there. I"ve had very few problems with the clones, but they're definitely not as dialed in as the originals.
Lol, that was an impressively philosophical look at clone saws, and cloning in general. I’d keep that big beast in the shop with the other purebred saws, don’t want to hurt it’s feelings 😉
That's pretty deep, but I get where you're coming from. Yeah, you don't want to be climbing with that bad boy strapped to you. Leave that to Reg Coates. Thanks for the video, it's nice to have to think about things sometimes.
I have the g466 the clone ms660 my advice is buy the upgraded handles and be ready to put new fuel lines the second year but okay saws my g466 needs oiler repair and clutch just broke only one year old
Check you cylinder bolts. Mine had one finger tight. The intake book was also finger tight. Also, your bottom plate isn’t fastened to the front AV, easy fix. I ended up putting a Hyway Oil Pump In as the stock was pretty sucky. Did a few other mods to it, now it’ll be a good saw I think.
I've heard about loose bolts from a few people now -- so thanks for the tip. I'll have to give it a thorough going over to check everything. That oil pump sounds good ... my flow rate seems a little low and slow so far
@@metaspencer when I replaced the oil pump I put two of the little xrings on the little oil pump barb. I think that may be the issues with the stock one. I think there is a clearance issue that’s not letting the pump pick up the bar oil… All I know now, is it oils great now…. About 1:1 oil/fuel
Îmi pare să te contrazic dar aceasta drujbă nu e o clonă.E o drujbă fabricată sub licența Husqvarna in China, chiar dacă nu are aceiași calitate ca și originalul.Salutari din România!
@@metaspencerok și dacă e o clonă, cum îți explici faptul că este și poate fi exportată peste tot.Le-ar fi imposibil chinezilor s-o exporte peste tot fără a avea licența cumpărată în prealabil.Atunci când cumperi licența unui produs odată cu ea cumperi și dreptul de al exporta oriunde dorești.Salutari din România!
LOL !!! I can only hope that everything is going your way, peace , prosperity and the very best of health to you , get ready for this coming winter season 😊
This was a giant waste of time. I learned nothing much like listening to Kamala interview. Lots of words with a video in the background but you got me for the views. I have one of these and it chews through logs. The oiler is a little weak but it's $1,000 cheaper than name brand

@@metaspencer Thank you.
Thank you
My question Are parts readily available?
Neotec has most things on their site so I’m not too worried about it
anybody know if this will take an oem wrap handle
would be cool if it fit
i think using a clone for an alaskan sawmill might be an idea. doesnt seem too shabby in general
Not a bad idea ... could work out nicely
I bought this for a power head on a mill. So far so good
Looks like a beast
Yeah I was running it today ... heavy but dang powerful
Clomes are a just a emulation of the perfection of the original design.
well said
My dad had a big eighties echo , when you're got big logs it's loves them , but its heavy
Yeah I've heard those saws are pretty awesome ... tons of power
Still recommend it?
Yea it’s a beast

Well spoken!
And i like that Biohazard sticker!
Thanks buddy
Great video
thanks for checking it out!
I'm gonna have to watch this again...Spencer going deep into these references...I'm gonna need a notepad...🤣🤣🤣
I should’ve posted a PowerPoint to go with it! ☺️😀

Saws can get sensitive!! I agree :)
First to comment?! Love your commentary and reflections Spencer!
Woohoo! First! big thanks for dropping the comment and getting things going
WOW that was deep, and introspective😮
Hey Spencer! I still remember the Big Blue saw you had...Youve got plenty of logs in the yard to start you own clone testing service 🪚🤔🪚
Big Blue! yeah I still fire that one up for a little rip once in a while ... clonetesting.com :)
Deep, really deep 🙂
haha ... had some fun with it for sure
Spencer your a hoot 😁👌
hahaha thanks man :)
This got dark, “mining organs of the clones”
the movie I was thinking about is "The Island" on that one ... sooooo disturbing
That's pretty deep, but I get where you're coming from. Yeah, you don't want to be climbing with that bad boy strapped to you. Leave that to Reg Coates. Thanks for the video, it's nice to have to think about things sometimes.
good to hear from ya man ... I had some fun with the video for sure :)
@@metaspencer That's what it should be about. You gotta have fun in life!
I have the g466 the clone ms660 my advice is buy the upgraded handles and be ready to put new fuel lines the second year but okay saws my g466 needs oiler repair and clutch just broke only one year old
I've had mixed luck with various clones -- good advice there buddy. thanks for that
Is this video a clone of your last video a day ago?
Absolutely. The first time out of the shoot I wasn't happy with it, so back to the (cloning) drawing board

Cred că tu și cu mine avem definiții diferite a ceea ce este o clonă. Pentru mine, licența nu contează... clonele sunt copii ale originalelor.

@@claudiurus5983 Interesting! You know much more about international commerce than I do
Homie went out to saw wood, but ended up ponderin' and philosophizin'
It happens haha
LOL !!! I can only hope that everything is going your way, peace , prosperity and the very best of health to you , get ready for this coming winter season 😊
All is good and thanks for your well-wishes! Yep, winter is coming and it's good to be ready :)
288xp clone crashed the ebay market for hoarded parts. Top covers now available as before 400.00$ for some!
wow! that's wild to hear
What ...... ? it dont run like a deer so YOU can repair it, the future of clones.
bro just stihl :D
Keren boss
Kayu yang sangat melimpah banyak
Ya, saya bekerja di industri jadi mendapat banyak
Maybe its made to be beat on. It doesnt cost as much so u dont care about it as much and can just beat the shit out of it lol
I can see your point -- nice to have a tool you don't have to worry about
@@metaspencer exactly
A clone well ok what tractors have you got covered up. no clone there.
You said it man ... all Fords and 2 of them run :)
For me it just doesn't feel right to buy a clone.
Gotta go with your gut! I still prefer my Stihl saws, so know what ya mean

It's cool to hear yours runs as good as mine does. yeah, big powerful saws for sure
I need a load of that clone wood 🪵 delivery fee ?
HAHAHAHA! I'll fire up my clone tractor and get some of the cloned ground crew to haul it over to yer place
