I have a small one for "light" trimming which works well for green wood up
to about 6 inch dia.

I've found that with dry wood, it doesn't seem to work nearly as well. But
it is quiet and extremely convenient!

Was wondering if an electric chainsaw would be worthwhile for cutting logs
into fireplace length (power is nearby). My old gas saw is cranky and a
little worn out so need a replacement but the allure of less noise and no
gas/fumes/hard to start etc. seems compelling.

Any suggestions appreciated...............
