    A couple of old beaters plus I have an old Stihl 015L top handle. I started the Stihl & Homie a few years ago, but never the Echo. Thinking they will end up on a future raffle to help someone in need, if there's any interest.
    Anyone have any knowledge in the Oregon bar on the Echo? Looks like 32" & posted a close-up of the numbers.

    Scored this beauty from a user over at OPE during a raffle to help on of their members. Have to work tomorrow some, but maybe I will get a chance to move my bar and chain from the 365SP over and fire it up.
    Thank you so much Jacob.

    That's what the G stands for? I did not know that. Worked again today, but hope to get that saw and my 660 (that huskihl repaired) in some wood soon. Starting to drive me mad.:headbang:

    These are the only small saws I know of that came with a full wrap handle bar. Impossible for me not to like.

    I like the XL-76/130 series a lot. They can hang in the cut with the best of them at 58cc. Good muscle in a small package. Here is the maiden voyage from a week or so ago. I've since had the carb apart again and tweaked the throttle shutter/shaft/stop. It is running better.

    As soon as you fired it up it took me back to the early-mid 1970s.
    Those saws were fairly popular in central Maine when I was growing up.
    Even with the older technology they really were a high performance saw.

    Try it, you'll like it . I wish EVERY saw came with a wrap handle !
    One great thing about the 026 Stihl was a wrap handle from an 044 fit them.

    I think that is a REALLY short bar ! But it looks like it worked well. What displacement is the power head ?
