    With a little “massaging” it should be a winner ... plus you won’t have to worry about the pin vibrating out of the piston and toasting your top-end !

    That log and saw are both long gone :)
    Moved on to smaller softer wood and bigger meaner saws.

    I'm not quite sure Dall they said they'd call me when it arrived. I'm in PA & he told me it was coming out of CT. So I wouldn't think it would be to long.:)

    Not sure with the new version. The heavier version is a better bucking & the 550 is better limbing.


    Of course they last longer. Their sitting on the shelf. :smoke:
