hf chainsaw
 

anyone tried out the hf plugin chainsaw


on sale with a coupon the price is low and much better deal then the
battery powered model


one thing interesting about hf is that they do iterations and release
new models with improvements

yes sometimes there are regressions in the new models but mostly
they get better


in ten years just think how good hf will be

This is one tool HF go right. I have had 3 or 4 of them, and they last better than the McCollough (sp?) I bought, better than the Craftsman, and some other brand of electric I bought.

Plenty of power. The bar on this is actually an Oregon bar, made here in the USA! Likewise, so is the blade.

With a lot of use they will last a few years. Mine have met their untimely deaths because of operator failure. The first one I had I used constantly (cutting firewood and wood turning finds) for about 5 years before the trigger when out. The next one was about two years old and one of my boys bent the bar really badly, and the bar is about the price of the saw when it is on sale, and if you buy the saw you also get a blade. The third one I bought about year ago and it is doing just fine.

A recommended buy. Only caveat: you need to order your chains online as most hardware stores don't have this size it requires. My take is that the chains are cheaper online anyway...

If you want to waste an afternoon, spend some time watching chainsaw videos
on YouTube.

The options range from crazy to amazing to stupid to funny and, of course,
extremely dangerous.
