    My favorite vintage saw for last. I have a few of these but none of the rest are like this score off the Grand rapids MI Craigslist a year ago or so. Last year made, 1976. I opened the box. Took Video to have future verification. Wife had the display case made.

    All the literature and a soft case were in the box.

    I was able to get out and get one of the log piles bucked and stacked today. I have about 5 more cords in logs that need skidded out of the woods to be bucked and about 15 cord already bucked on pallets that needs split yet... I'm always behind... But I had all three saws out today and enjoyed running them all I ran a full tank of gas through each of the saws and had to go re-fuel the 362C to finish noodling some of the last bigger rounds. Since I cut at 21 - 22" for my woodstove I really need to get a 24" light bar for the 357 so it can share the noodling duties with the Stihl. The 357 is fun to run and cuts fast, but it is a gas hog compared to the strato 362C.

    I am the not so happy new owner of a Stihl 241. A couple of fellas were wanting one so I called & checked to see if was still there, yes it was & they were interested. I went & bought it. One of the fellas never replied back & the other wanted a NIB.

    So I gots a new saw sitting in the back room. It has a bit of surface rust on the muffler & chain from sitting on the shelf for over a year. If I had know I was going to get stuck with a saw I would of bought the 400 or the 461 sitting there.

    Had one of my favorites out yesterday. It's in pretty good shape and runs like a top. 20211226_105939.jpg 20211226_105721.jpg 20211226_105703.jpg

    This saw has never been fired? Its the M-Tronic version i assume. I wonder what the insides look like from setting. A 241 is the next saw I planned on buying. I'm interested. PM me and we can talk.

    I’m impressed every time I open the caps and they’re attached by chains. I’ve gotten used to flippys, but dislike the string and ball connection that comes out of the slot.

    No, I don’t use it much. Haven’t even dulled the chain since I got it. It starts easy and runs strong, so I like it. Just never had a 60cc saw, so I’m figuring out what size wood it’s best suited for. Typically I’ll use the 261 and a 70cc saw. Sometimes it’s just too many choices.
    Ordered a quad axle dump of gravel today, so I don’t buy another saw.

    Huh. Not sure where I got the idea they came both ways. Maybe on the European site both are available.
