Thanks for the compliments hope you get yours running soon…always check Craigslist and facebook people sell them for under 100 bucks in pretty good shape sometimes
I haven't taken a family picture for a couple years, so here's the current lineup. See signature for details.
My small family. They cover my needs well. Wants may be another issue. Trying to keep CAD at a distance... The Husky was added just to try my hand at porting. I was looking for an old school non-strato saw to port. With no lathe, it's a mild port job, but it runs good and makes me happy.
My cousin had 2 of those, his son straight gassed them. He told me he through them in a dumpster, I just shook my head.
I cannot like this post. MS361 is my very favorite saw of all time. I'm not at all surprised it sold quick. It is a highly desirable saw.
My Masterminded 461 is very happy with 32" full comp chain (see my avatar). I put in a high output oiler and it runs 36" full skip all day, easily. I have to imagine your 461 is as good or better than mine, based on what Scott did to my 361.
I know…. Guy who bought it said the same thing. It’s a great firewood saw… don’t make me second guess my decision now Mike!
The extra 7 cc should help you out. Once you get that 400 ported, you won't even need a 462/500, you can skip straight to an 661
