Sharpen the teeth on the chain at 0 to 10 degrees instead of 30 degrees .  Let the weight of the saw do the work. I will make some videos when I get a good camera.

Didn’t know you could cut it so cleanly with a chain blade. Pure skill

All the greatest things are done together!!!

I made that cut with a Farmac f380 with a 25" bar.  It is a clone of the Stihl Magnum 038. I then use a Husky 445 with 18" bar to cut it into boards
