    That’s my slang. Its a woodland bar from bailey’s. And I agree, it definitely makes the saw happy and cuts quicker. Also if I rock a chain it’s 16$, saves a bit of cash vs a 25”.

    Very true!
    I remember the first time i hit dirt with my 28" bar. I learned to be very mind full of where the bars end was while cutting from then on!

    I didn’t get a 500 yet. That will be my 3rd Stimulus saw. I got a 661cm with the 2nd saw stimulus check. I’ll run the 462 and 661 tomorrow and post up some pics. The 500 didn’t feel a great deal lighter than the 661, but it’s definitely skinnier.

    Problem is, you've never spent some quality time with a well ported 346. Happens to be one of, if not thee best 50cc chainsaw ever made.

    Took advantage of a cold but sunny day to cut up a pile of logs and get them stacked and off the ground. IMG_20210116_13800.jpg
