Quoted:
There is an archive thread in this from last year when I wanted one, search chainsaw...
They said Stihl or Husky, period. Anything else was a waste of money.
They were right. The Stihl entry model is around 200ish.
Best money I spent, I will only have to buy and cry once on that.
Waste of money huh?? Now that I think about it, I purchased my saw in the spring of 1981.... the year before my daughter was born so that would make it 29 years old.
It's dirty because I use it often.
No motor work at all..... Don't remember what I paid for it, but I probably could find the receipt somewhere......... I kind of think I got my money out of it and don't feel like I wasted a dime.
Many of my friends purchased the "better" saws.... they seem to trade them in more often than I do.
