This is one of my reasons to not start buying other brands. I finally came up with a way to KISS. 20' bar on bigger saws and 16 on 50cc. I have longer and shorter bars with duplicate chains.

Ill put them in ziploc baggies in the tool box that goes to the cut. If taking a 25/28" I'll make sure I have the extras too.

I for one would love to see you using that 20' bar Brad.

Couple tanks through the 2511. Love this little saw. Cut fresh black locust last week and dead sugar maple this week. I know its a limbing saw but ideal for cut smalls in tangled areas.

Tried the 620 briefly and it will get sold. Wishing it had a 20" bar. May list it in the classifieds here. VERY LOW hours.

I will be getting the 4910 soon. Rain day road trip as its 45 minutes one way.

As much as I hate to admit it you're probably right. I have been doing some looking into it though.

It's easy Brad. Contact Kevin and get on the list. You'll be hooked once you do.

I didn't repeat myself, just the Echo's

CS 2511 top handle popped up on FBM. BARELY used and at a really good price. Checked sellers other items and another Echo...CS620P a bit more used and a great deal at his asking price. Has a 28" bar too. I made an offer for a package deal and he accepted. Met up this morning for the deal.. Tried the 2511 out briefly at storage later and what a little terror! I was VERY impressed for a 25cc saw.

I almost bought a 2511 new a few years back (pre Covid) when the Echo rep was at a local OPE dealer and was offering specials. Maybe less than $400 out the door IIRC. Its over $600 now. Having heard guys on here rave about them it piqued my interest. Most used ones I see are over $400 and noticeably used.

Wishing the 620 had a shorter bar. Will a Stihl bar fit? Ill try it out next week with the long bar and after I sharpen it.

The CS2511 is on my wishlist! The CS-620P is my go to saw. I would like to try a MS400.x and a fuelie 564. Their prices make them hard to rationalize over another Echo, though. I am curious to see if you keep the 620.

I looked real hard at the 620s. I seem to remember a goofy drive link count. Please consider when sourcing a new bar.

The 24" bar on my 620 takes 81dl not 84dl like other 24" bars.
