Rule number 1; Never be afraid to ask too much or offer too little. I've got a 362 Mtronic and I know you gonna love dat saw!
I did lowball him, he didn't bite. He's a good guy, no need to cut his throat. I gave him what he asked , fair for both of us. Already do, Ralphie! Got it sharpened up and gave it a workout yesterday. It's a nice machine.
Think I might need to start a Saw Rescue charity, specializing in early intervention techniques. They'd all have a nice warm place to stay in my house, well fed, away from the users and abusers. I'll start taking donations as soon as the 501c3 paperwork is filed.
I have the same saw. Its my "go to" saw. It runs great and if he only used it 2 or 3 times, then its not even broke in yet. I have a 20" bar on it now, but I am thinking about a 25 " bar to give me a littl more reach.
I see a muffler port/retune in your near future, Tim......that will really make that saw growl! Good score buddy!
Thanks I'd like more power, but not more noise. My ears ring enough. Hopefully give it another workout today at mom's, I got three red oaks that came down last summer I'm working on and another that was wind damaged this week. (Next one down the property line from the one you took down)
