Chainsaw advice - what to buy?

...and a quick bar change to a 30" German made Carlton bar.
This one has had a bit of work with the clearcoat stripped, (it melted during some cross cutting :eek:) the oil holes chamfered and angled and the rails blended into the nose better.
Bloody good bit of steel though.
Both bars are currently wearing Windsor chain. I mainly use Carlton and Windsor, but have a few loops of Stihl and Oregon.

This ones going to get a little work soon too Andy when I get a chance.
Lets just say it could embarrass the odd stock 660 ;)
Oh, and some new spikes, the bottom spike is the wrong angle sometimes when felling, just not long enough/deep enough to pivot properly in the cut on larger trees.

hehehe... thread going again. Think i will buy the Huski..... and invest in some good safety gear (thongs and singlet?) Kidding. Also want to do a course too.

Ta for all of the advice.

Chris

don't settle for anything less :lol:

Buy the saw that suits your needs.
If your gunna use it heaps on bigger wood, buy a good quality medium/large saw.
If your gunna limb a few small trees and gather a bit of wood 4 the camp fire, you dont need a monster;).

Nothing like having a MONSTER to cut the wood for the camp fire.
You dont need to travel far from camp to cut up all the wood the Boys with their Toys cant handle:p:p:p:p

Husky's do ok.... ;)

Andy, dont encourage the inexperienced to buy a MONSTER:p.
I know that any saw can kick, but when a MONSTER kicks:eek:
