    I dont use mine that much but it feels strong...not like it is flimsy or doesnt engage right or anything.

    I believe the earthquake is under the cover too. Thats why I bought it as well a working saw for cheap you dont care to toss around dont worry if you leave it in the truck while you run in a store and have a backup if a saw gets hung or any reason.

    Everybody has been saying redmax but i honestly have no clue, maybe after a few guys look at the pics they'll know. I did fire it up, runs good, no cuts yet...

    Only thing I see that looks a little cheesy is the a/v mount on the right side of the saw, is it stronger than it looks? 20160126_151759.jpg

    I just looked at the pics of the 45cc earthquake on ebay. That is different. It mounts to the wrap handle not a bracket like that

    I just remembered the 45 is on rubber isolators.

    Yeah, just looking at the muff you can see that's the 38 cc.

    But it's still a Chinese saw. So any 38 cc Chinese saw or part on eBay will swap out.
