    Well you enablers did it...again. I broke down and got another saw. Seeing Diesel 4 life posts about his 7310 helped push me over. Of course seeing other hoarders collections and toys don't help any.

    Did I need it, maybe I did or maybe I didn't. :zip: Arrived last week but havent gotten a chance to run it. I don't even have fuel in it yet. Hopefully Saturday will be the day I get to run it through its paces.

    I have a cs590 that I have abused time to time, and have had zero complaints. With my budget and what I wanted, and how my 590 has treated me, this fits the bill.

    Got it with a 32" bar, but ordered a 24".

    Only time my wife will allow a saw on table is when it's new. (Wallet is there to show it's empty):makeitrain"
    Hopefully some action shots will be on the way. :banana:

    I’ve never seen the inside of a big Echo. How about some close up pics with the covers off? It’s a good looking saw for sure. Props to Echo for sexy styling.

    I sure like my echo saws. Have 2 8000's over 20 years old and used regularly never a issue ever. A 680 i bought in 2012 has been just as dependable. I think you will be quite happy. Congratulations !!

    I don't need another 70cc saw, but I want me a 7310 Echo. Everyone who has one seems to be happy so far!

    We've done good for you! :D Great to know we're a positive influence!

    I was warned when i joined about the bunch of dang enablers on here (i think i joked about a support group) and now i have too much wood, well close to too much wood, and not enough, well close to not enough chain saws! I might as well just admit i have a hoarding problem, im just not sure of which! :rofl: :lol:

    All kidding aside, nice looking saw there Biddleman ! How many CC's as im not familiar with the Echo line?

    Best of luck with it and looking forward to seeing some action shots. :saw:
    How about a family pic of all your saws.

    Hoard on (with firewood) and work safe my friend!

    Good big wood saw.

    What is your other saw? Start a signature line of your firewood making stuff. Lots of FHCer's post pics of just one saw.

    Nice saw! Ive been wanting the 7310 since it was announced. Was looking hard at the 620 as well before that. I love my 2 Echos never had any issues.

    Don't fret! Saw on! You're made of money! Don't get so excited that you forget pictures of the action!

    Sweet! A new saw score. :saw: I'm guessing this will enable you to take on bigger wood scrounges? There definitely isn't a shortage of them in this neck of the woods (big old monsters that is).

    Yes that's pretty much the primary reason I got it. Got tired of working so hard bucking those big logs. The cs590 got the job done with 20" and 24" bar but had to work at it.

    All i ever cut with was a 16" bar until three years ago. Go from that to a 28" (what my 460 has) is quite the game changer. You're gonna love!
