I was looking for the best chainsaw I could possibly find for what I am doing and hopefully I have found it. The Stihl MS261cvm is the professional grade 50cc saw from Stihl with the additional artic package that includes heated handles and heated carburetor. I am hoping that this saw will be a perfect fit for my all around chainsawing needs. Watch as we look at why I bought it as well as for a general overview and testing of the saw.

Welcome to Traplines and Inlines, this channel focuses on my dog and I on our remote Off the Grid Homestead in Northern Canada. I make videos on off grid homesteading and building, trapping, chickens, mechanical projects, and hunting and fishing.

I went offgrid and started building my cabin over two years ago, while I was still in highschool. Since then I have built many things at the homestead and have had the priviledge of learning many things along the way.

The homestead is designed to be relatively low maintenance and with extremely minimal expenses. All of my electricity comes from solar power, heat from woodstoves, and I haul all my water so I dont have any monthly costs associated with my homestead.

I love the lifestyle, especially because it gives me the absolute freedom to do whatever I please. I plan on continuing to tackle awesome projects and work at building and fixing many more things, and I cant wait to share them with you on the channel.
Thanks for watching!
