"Leon" wrote in message ... Being a pro in a particular field does not made you an expert on every piece of equipment within a product line that you may or may not use. Yeah, I get that, Leon. In my original response to Gramps, I just mentioned that the local arborists are Husky users, merely as a point of comparison to offer a different viewpoint from mine as a satisfied Stihl user. Trying to be even-handed. If Stihl vs. Husky is a religious war in some quarters, I have no intention of dying in a ditch over it. In fact, the reason I've got a Stihl is that the nearest good chainsaw repair place was at the time a Stihl dealer; if it had been a Husky dealer I'd no doubt own a Husky instead. I bought my Stihl cause my father-in-laws saw was so old and till running but just not top notch. So I stuck with that brand considering that brand has held up for so long. Of course it helps that the dealer who also does the service on Stihls is about 2 miles from my house. As far as chainsaws that is the only brand that they carry in that shop but they do carry other brands of other implements. I love the SawStop - I'm half-owner of a fairly new one that I share with a boat builder friend, that we purchased to replace a Delta cabinet saw that took off one of his index fingers. I'm on the Festool bandwagon too, with a CXS drill, a jigsaw, and a random orbital sander - hope this admission doesn't bring the Festool haters out of the woodwork, too. One of the saws that my tree guys use is a very small and light Husky limbing chainsaw with about a 14-inch bar, that they use one-handed when they're up a tree. I lust after it, but it's a professional tool and priced to suit - about $600 or so - and there's no way that I could justify it for the occasional use I'd make of it. Tom Tom doesn't Stihl have a small limbing saw for around $200? I thought I seen one in my local dealer. -- All the Best Dale Miller Tennessee ASP since February 2005 Registered Linux User: #317401 Linux since June 2003 Registered Ubuntu User #26423 (cut the spam to reply) VOTE TO REBUILD! www.twintowersalliance.com __ |

"Morgans" wrote in message ... "Gramps' shop" wrote in message ... I have infrequent need for a chainsaw and have a little McCullough electric that does OK. There are a couple of trees down in the back too remote for the electric and I'd like to have a gas saw to take 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: http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/tls/4346181306.html Go to the local pawn shop, and find you an old saw with good compression, and ask them to start it up for you. I have a Poulan a bought when Huge hit in (89 I think) and I use it for mainly trimming. I guarantee I could go get it out of the shed, put fresh gas in it, and start it on the 4th or 5th pull. I don't know about the newer Poulans. As little as you sound like you use one, an old used saw sounds like what you need. -- I agree, I have an old Poulan that I bought around 1980. It will take about 6 pulls of the cord to get it started as it hasn't run for about 8 years, but I am certain it will start, and then it will start on the first pull after that. I am going to clean it up and sharpen it when this cold snap is over, as I have a yard full of fallen tree limbs from the ice storm to get rid of. |

Why do you think the drill and jigsaw are better than the myriad of others? I've asked others this before but I just wanted your take. Thanks. I forgot to mention the track saw, in which I'm also partners with my fingerless friend. Best purchase we've ever made. We can slide sheet goods right from the truck onto a work table and break them down, right to the finished line, without having to fire up the table saw for big cuts. Saves a huge amount of time and turns what's often a two-person job into a solo operation. Hell of a tool. The CXS drill is mostly because of my bad shoulders. Forty years of wooden boat repair and restoration have pretty much wrecked them, so I now have a heck of a time holding tools up over my head. The CXS drill is Festool's smallest at 10.8 V, but it's lightweight, has more power than I expected, and has proven to be pretty good for what I do with it nowadays. I keep the spare battery on the charger and swap them whenever I need to, but I don't run a portable drill as hard as I used to and so it doesn't turn out to be a problem. An inconvenience is that it only goes up to 5/16 diameter bits. So I'm thinking of adding a C15 to the shop for heavier work and larger drill bits, in spite of the additional weight (and cost!). I got the jigsaw to replace an ancient Makita that's started to rattle so loud that my wife says she can hear it from the house. As advertised, it claims that its splinter-guard inserts will handle the issue with breakout on top of the piece, and that was the main reason I got it instead of the very-highly-regarded Bosch. But in practice that aspect hasn't worked out very well, and in addition the plastic shroud that's part of the dust collection system somewhat obscures my view of the cutting line, so the premium cost of the Festool name was pretty much wasted in this case. I've gone back to using it like I was doing with the Makita, which is to use hollow-ground down-cut blades. With that scheme I can follow a mark within a few hundredths of an inch if I keep my wits about me. If you can believe it, Starrett now even makes a combination up-cut and down-cut blade that leaves a clean edge on both the top and bottom of the piece. I guess what I'm not "getting" is the router. I've got a Porter-Cable 890 that lives permanently in the router table, a couple Porter-Cable 690s that I use handheld, and recently a new Dewalt 611 which is a nice little 1 1/4 hp machine, a sort of big brother to a trim router. It has a good depth adjustment mechanism, but has the drawback that it accepts only 1/4" bits. All these machines are working out OK for me, so I'm not feeling like I need to up my game in that area.

I had a PC7518 motor in a table, a PC691, and a Bosch Colt trim router. I wanted something bigger for hand-held but wanted it controllable. The OF1400 has very nice depth adjustments and the plunge control really smooth. I guess I just liked it better than anything else I found. I wouldn't buy a router (other than a trim router) that didn't take 1/2" bits (so didn't bother looking further at that OF1100). |

The 1/4" has handled everything I've ever needed to throw at it so far, so who knows - maybe at some point, but for now - it just works. -- -Mike- |

It was under $200, and I gotta tell you - I love that little saw. It is so much better to limb with than my 361! Lightweight, maneuverable, doesn't get all caught up in the branches like my long bar on my 361. It's good for blocking wood up to about 8" in diameter or so, and then it starts to show its size.

Puckdropper Please,,. don't waste your money, There is no wa you can properly sharpen a chain in the way they describe. No matter - it only takes minutes to do it the right way without getting scammmed by this kind of crap. Go to a local chainsaw repair shop and have them show you how to do it. It will be so worth your time that you will be posting comments about it. A simple round file of the right size and a couple of strokes, and you can have a perfect;u sharpened chain. Really... Yoi can! Have an 12V electric file takes me about ten minutes to do the 18" and 14" saws, about twenty minutes with a regular file. Also remember to mark the starting tooth otherwise it takes all day. Mark If you were to measure the cutting life of two chains, one sharpened with a hand file, the other sharpened with an electric, I would say that the hand file sharpened chain would last twice as long. The hand file simply removes less metal, and it reduces the tendency of ham handed operators to go crazy with them. Do what the pros do. Carry a couple of very simple files, and know where to take off the metal. Same as any guy who knows how to sharpen knives. I've seen knives that were sharpened down to almost nothing, starting at 3/8" wide at the handle, and coming down to a toothpick on the point. Absolutely no need to remove that much metal besides inexperience and error. Steve Steve |

Yep - I vote the same. My 25 year old Husky 20" 50 is still running.
Need rings I bet - leaks a bit of oil in the piston. But then it has been really used and is a hand to use at 67 now. I love my arbor Stihl a lightweight baby that works like a horse. But use both. This new gas is crap for a lot of tools. Be sure to buy the treatment to keep the water out - water and gas destroys light metals. I used to live in a Redwood forest. The woodmen who cut the various oaks, madrones and redwoods (species and sub-species) all use Stihl. They have Husky's as backups and trim work on downed trees.

I've used Stihl chainsaws for 35 years. My oldest one, a really useful 009, died yesterday. It has been on its last legs for some while but I will miss it nevertheless. Stihls have served me very well over the years and I look after my 4 saws. I'm somewhere in between a hobbyist and a pro. The wood burner takes some feeding and I have a fair bit of timber to attend to. Last week there were some tree surgeons working locally on a large weeping willow that had toppled following high winds and flooding. About 100ft high. Blocked a stream and a lane. Too big for me at my age and these guys came with a 130T capacity crane to assist! I got talking to one of the guys. He was using a Husqvarna with a 48" bar. He told me that he had stopped using Stihl as they, in his words, 'lost the plot some years ago when they started concentrating on saws for hobbyists'. Husqvarna have taken on the mantle and now produce excellent saws for both pro's and hobbyists. I think this a bit of a shame as Stihl led the market for years, but times change. Husqvarna now lead the field in pro saws through innovation. I don't think I'll ever need a new saw, if otherwise I will certainly look at what Husqvarna might have to offer. Good luck. Nick. I think that Husky (prior to the sell out), was a viable competitor to Stihl. I am a Stihl guy and there are plenty of Husky guys out there. Never really did see where one was really better than the other. Both great saws. I would though, strenuously disagree with your tree guy. Don't know what he's smoking, but to this day Stihl still makes some of the best pro model saws available and that is proven by the number of pros that still use them. I think he was just talking ****. Even their homeowner line is far better than competing products. Still Stihl quality. Not pro quality, but way better than typical homeowner quality junk that's out there in the market. My thoughts on the quality of Stihl are not just based on my preference for that saw but are hugely influenced by my local dealer who sells both Husky and Stihl, and repairs everything out there. Talk to one of those guys - not the tree guy who really does not know. |

Well, that was a spirited discussion! I've decided on the Stihl MS170. Thanks for all of the good recommendations -- and for steering me away from some bad options. Buying this from a local outdoor equipment company at about 30% off MSRP. It was his last one.

That is a very good saw for light weight work and you will not be disappointed in it at all. If you want to use it beyond it's real design intent, just remember to go slow and easy - it will do it, just don't try to push it hard at that point. If I can offer any user based advise on that saw, just give a yell. But - I think you're really going to love that saw. It's a great little saw. -- -Mike- |

Thanks, Mike. The dealer seems like a good guy and promised to show me how to properly start and maintain it, including sharpening the chain.
