After having my Stihl 029 Super for 21 years, I finally found a used Stihl 362 for $500.00. I got 150 for my 029 on trade in. I paid 260 for the 029 back in 2001 so with the trade in allowance, I had use of my 029 for 21 years for a grand total of $110. It is not a C model. Pics when I get my camera out. Looking forward to using it.
Congrats on the new saw. Definitely a nice upgrade. Stihls are great for holding their value. Considered one but have my 361 which is its predecessor. Wanna see pics of it in action!
YUP. I have dealt with them for over 30 years. They would sell Stihl chain for $1.00 per inch. I didn't ask what they are getting now but I have a number of loops to last me the rest of my life.
Finally got out today to do some cutting with my new to me saw. I didn't want to abuse it much so I only worked on some paper birch. I cut up some of it last fall when the top of the tree broke out. I cut down the spar that was still standing and got it blocked up. I will split it later when the weather is a bit better. The last couple of blocks closest to the stump were really solid and heavy.
That would be per bar length. Chain for a 16 inch bar would be $16 plus some for the governor. With prices going nuts now, I don't know if they are still selling at that price.
