    Is that your first top handle? Handy things they are.

    I use a pressure washer when I want a saw to look pretty.
    Works pretty dandy, and it's way faster than anything else.... I don't have the patience to clean saws nicely.
    Just gotta be careful not to blow off all the pretty stickers.

    I bet a free 4 stroke saw could be handy if you sent me one.

    Regular carb. Tree service traded them in for rear handles due to insurance reasons. They have a few of them for quite a decent price.

    Ive talked with some Asplundh crews and they are no longer able to use top handles for the same reason. I guess they'll hire anyone and train them and i can see how a novice could hurt themselves with one.
    Will it be mostly for limbing or will you buck smalls with it? Wanna see pics of it in action.
    Probably breaking out mine for the HL score...if it ever stops raining.

    Mostly limbs and clean up around my property. I really didn't need one but you of all people know how that goes.

    I forgot about my rear handle 201. Handy saw as well. Thinking the top handle better for my HL score as i can use the other hand for holding logs as i plan to buck there.

    Just got the 066 yesterday. It runs, but not well. Hoping to have it going good by spring.
