Kinda why I suggested a ms400 basically the weight of the 59cc 362 but a fair bit more power at 67cc. They’ve also been very reliable overall.
That should be lumber not firewood haha
Our birch, ash and maple mix is usually cooked as all heck and I wouldn’t doubt the times i thought I was going to make piles of wood each pass...
Your logs must be straight as heck, can’t imagine trying to get them end matched and flat enough in a pile to not pinch a 60” bar. I had issues...
Long bar cutting on ground yes but in a pile it’s a pain in my opinion. Cutting at all different hights anywhere from 12” off ground to right in...
This is kinda why I was thinking the ms 400 still light but has way more power than a 261. Long as it’s smaller diameter wood like he’s say a 400...
Yeah but an 026/260 isn’t really in the same power class as a 261 either, 346 is a good saw and much better than the 550 in my opinion.
The local dealership I bought stuff from when he quit had 6 usg’s that he kept because he was still going to do chains for people. Some were red...
Sentimental plays a part too, a person is likely to keep their first saw or at least get another later in life just to reminisce. That saw is...
Depends what you want to spend, 261 is a great saw and durable if bucking in a pile lots and doing 30-35 chords a year I might lean towards the...
The high end tecomic with the hydraulic clamp is great, my cheap timber tuff grinders work and have sharpened a lot of chains but the Oregon or...
You’ll kill it pretty quick and hate every minute of milling, if you buy a real Stihl, echo or husky pro saw you more than likely won’t need to...
Bigger is usually better but if you take your time and give the saw a break now and then a 70 cc saw will do what you want to do. So 372,...
Used oem 660 will have all the good parts in it including the tensioner for bar, but far as clones go I don’t think any of the others are much...
If you could find an old short wood skidder to modify and or rob grapple off of then you could build a custom firewood hauler with sides for...
Do you have a crappy dealer close? Even they would have a terrible time screwing up a chain tensioner if you bring a part number. This is on...
The 2 in 1 works great and is simple, he just needs to remember to only by full comp chains or it won’t work
Probably because it is harder and more work to do square chain. Yes it cuts faster but a very small percentage of people really care enough to...
I’d call them and I bet they have one or can get it
Did you look to see if diamond wheel in southern mn makes a square one?
