    C4F80DFC-1A05-4EB4-932B-E9E59B190159.jpeg Whiled away mud season converting a toasted 261 to a 262 ( Husky ) for a kid up the road with blossoming land scape business. Nice kid and a friend of a friend. Just charged for parts and he was glad to have a second saw. Someone gave him the toasted 261.
    Got text this afternoon, Would Enroute!
    Beech and Oak.
    Nice surprise!

    Awesome... I’m sure you were not expecting anything in return. That kid has promise. Plus you’re teaching him to run the proper saws

    Best friend, Lefty, has a 261. Close to 10 years ago it got toasted. He said the saw owed him nothing so he gave it to me. I put an aftermarket 262 topend on it, and gave it back to him for Christmas. He still runs it along with his 044. Nice saw and thumbs up for getting some quality wood in return.
