Being on a tight budget, I'm not looking to pay $400. Can I get a decent
saw in the $150? Ok, quit laughing.

Anyone got any recommendations for a budget saw?

I had a $129 saw. I tossed it in the woods one day and bought a Stihl.
Maybe you can find my cheapo in the woods and get it to run more that 10
seconds.
