Chainsaw advice
Test Tickle wrote in
: Hey, I am looking for a new chainsaw, as I'd like to start harvesting more wood to feed the habit. I'd love to hear any advice you folks might have. I know I want a gas powered saw, and I suppose it's better to buy a longer bar rather than a shorter one -- my old 16 inch was a little lacking sometimes. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated. tt I'm not a chainsaw expert, so I listened to some, and bought a Stihl. 18" or so bar length. Spent maybe $300, IIRC. The model number escapes me right now. Nothing at the home centers looked like I wouldn't wear it out in a weekend. The garden equipment center sells pro, and 'pro-sumer' level gear, and has always done well by me, and hundreds of other folks. Friends who run big saws like Stihl, among others, but this one was right for me. Patriarch |
