    Picked up a like new Stihl 261 with 2 18” chains and a 1/2 gallon of premix for $450 today. Pretty sure only the 1/2 gallon of premix has been run through the saw. CAD won on this deal as I already have 2 50 cc saws so not much use for another one. No I just need more time to run more saws!

    FHC won’t let me post pics, I’ll try again latter, but it’s basically a brand new 261

    Great firewood saw.
    One of the best things I did was dump my old MS290 and graduate to this. You won't regret it.
