    image.jpeg image.jpeg Hello guys fairly new to the site... I am a 30 y/o poor white boy with a great lady and my first kid, a 8 month old beautiful girl.... I work full time a a university setting sports events up and graduations full time .. I cut wood for heat, fun, and sell some, actually harder work cuttin wood than my Fulltime job LMAO..... I have been cuttin wood since dad thought I wouldnt hurt myself with a saw..... I kept up with the ol trade and I burn wood in an OWB, mine is a Hawkins ..... (Yes I know some people don't like the Hawkins to each his own, I did alot of research and talked to people that had OWBs that were 10 years old with no problems and bought that brand)
    I have a ms250, an ol trusty ms290, and my new love the 461..... I just got the 461 week ago and she is a beast, and she only had like maybe 4 tanks of gas three her so she ain't even broke in yet...absolutely and amazing saw great on fuel, super torque, great top end, and the vibrations aren't near as bad as I was anticipating..... Any way I love to talk about and run chainsaws, so hello every one and great site you guys got here!!!!!
    PS--- yep that's a beer in the pic, I like to work hard and have a drink!!! Thanks a lot Kyle

    Yes sir I did see that... I like the plunge cut... These 461 have a hell of a lot of torque for sure.... Can't wait to cut to use her today at about 530....
