I have infrequent need for a chainsaw and have a little McCullough

advantage of found logs or limbs.

Since my use is infrequent, I don't want to invest too much. CL
frequently has Poulans available. Here's an example:

Any thoughts?

I've got a couple of Jonsereds. Reliable, sturdy, not terribly
expensive.


They've always been good saws but you don't find dealers around much
anymore. Or - shops to repair them.

Tractor supply sells Jonsereds, but they don't offer service.

Buy a Stihl.
