    Four stroke chainsaws on the way ?

    Although early to mid in the last decade 4 strokes mx bikes really started to take over with the addition of the electric start and smooth easy to roll on power up a snotty hill the major euro brands are still putting alot of time and effort into getting excellent 2 bangers on the competative...

    Chainsaw education

    Like yourself I moved to a property with the only heat source being a pot belly fire place. The wood chops I do are monthly and we burn close on 1 tonne in a month. I enjoy it but it is almost a lifestyle as you need to plan a good half day at least to get organised and get some wood. I now...

    Nice clip mate, the 365 is a real screamer, I have one myself and I reakon i'll do that to mine when it needs a freshen up. Looks like a good spot up there.

    bar size for 365sp.

    Well the chains are neally at the end of their life as they have been sharpened alot and the bar end has separated a little and the groove in the bar rail is bigger and the chain isnt as snug as it should be.

    bar size for 365sp.

    Thanks for all the great feedback some very good points as ive only just started playing around with saws abit. I guess what it comes down too as the diff between 18 and 20 is pretty minimal is cost. I'll see how I go but as I need a new bar I might stick with the new 18inch I have and just...

    bar size for 365sp.

    bar size for 365sp.

    Thats the thing I have found I dont cut to a 20 inch tip and just thought the 18inch would prove more nimble and as the 18inch is smaller id get a big more power through it. Most of it is on ground fire wood work, I only have the one saw so its really my "all rounder".

    bar size for 365sp.

    After a 4 seasons of firewood and quite a few felling of trees its time for a new bar on my 365sp. As I dont ever really require the 20inch bar that comes as stock with the 365 saw I am considering dropping it down to an 18inch. What are the main pro's and con's to this aside from the saw being...

    026 vs. 346xp

    Excuse my ignorance but what displacement are these 2 saws, (obviously the husky is 46cc aprox) but what the 026? And I have used a 346 and its a damn good saw.

    How do you pronounce Stihl?

    In australia and a few other countries it is like bill or mill, if you said steel over here around pro operators they would think you are talking about somthing else!

    Best firewood saw full stop.

    Oh and just in response to some questions, yes I would love two saws but I know if I did get more then 1 I would be in trouble.... The fire wood I cut is all types all sizes and shapes so really the 365 is good for me. I might be a extra bar (maby a 16in) because I have a 20in on the saw and...

    Best firewood saw full stop.

    OK well I have tired, held and compared a number of saws and the 2 I have narrowed it down to due, also just personal choice and liking just how the saw was are the husky 365 special and the stihl 361 (i think it was the 361 it was about 60cc I think!) I can get a fair bit off the husky 365 sp...

    Best firewood saw full stop.

    Every saw you guys just mentioned I have been told by 2 dealers are all good saws! The saw I have noticed everybody seems to like and rant about is the 365. The only thing I have noticed it that the 365 isnt part of the XP range so I imagine isnt "classed a professinal saw. This may not be an...
