Well guys to be honest I do live in Arkansas so it is not like I am cutting for an extremely long cold winter. But after looking at my stack maybe I could fit a few more logs on top....

Well my JD-62 is still running strong. Finished up my wood for the winter today. I would cut more just for fun but I am not sure where I can stack it... The saw almost takes all the fun out of it. I am through cutting before I even get tired of it. Then all I get to do is drag the wood home...

I got a pretty good chuckle out of all your posts. Glad they weren't as tough on me when I was looking...well maybe a little bit. But anyway I bought a JD62 and love it. It is not made by the same manufacturer as the JD38 and Home Depot can't get it. None of my reputable dealers are carrying it...

I recently purchased the CS-62 from Deere and I really like it. If you have a Deere shop near by you might check it out. But from my experience many of the dealerships are not carrying the saws yet but they can get them if you can stand to wait.

Yeah but once it was down...yah can't put it back up right so might as well enjoy the wood. Of course that was probably to nice of wood to simply burn.

All right here we go. Finally I got to test my new JD CS-62. It ran like a champ. I talked a contractor here that had nocked down a decent sized oak tree (really four trees with one trunk) to let me get rid of it for him. The saw made short work of it and was still running strong when I ran out...

Tony, Yes my saw came finally after much confusion. I was out of town though and have not had a chance to try it out though. I am hoping to find some needy trees soon.

Tony I am not sure how they are sending it this time but they are paying for the shipping and the return shipping on the other one. I am just excited that they are sending another before they get this one back. Seems like a pretty good store.

Dave that is a simple answer. Of course I would have.

Luckily the kind folks I ordered the saw from are sending me a new one and sending a pickup slip for the old one so all I am out is a little time. All in all not to bad. Again if the move hadn't placed me in this position I would have bought locally if possible. I always try to buy locally for...

Yeah Sedan man that is what I figured. I didn't see a reason to hit the dealership right before I left but...I couldn't wait till I got here to get the saw...you understand the fever I hope...After all it is chainsaw thing and...

And Tony it wasn't the stud or the nut it was the stud that had stripped the casing. I guess when it was originally assembled. I sure couldn't have produced that much torque the way I was using the tool. I always use those like spark plug wrenches and keep my hand right over the nut not out over...

Yeah I hear yah. Well at least that is the wonderful thing about credit cards. You always have insurance. I haven't been able to get ahold of the site yet. I got home about 5pm so even my local shop would have been closed. Since I was in the process of moving a local shop wouldn't have been...

It is made by Solo. It was discussed in some previous posts.

Tony the saw just came and while installing the chain I discovered the front bolt for the blade was stripped. I know I didn't do it because I kept my hand over the nut and not out on the end of the tool. I don't posses superhuman strength either. So needless to say I am not pleased so far.

Well I did it. Ordered the CS-62 from Chainsaws4u. I will let you know how it works when I get it. Decided to step up to MORE POWER for the same weight.

Tony I saw that site I meant one that actually carried the Efco line not the line they make for JD. Just trying to see their own product too.

Thanks Tony. I am still leaning toward the 962 or the cs-62. I am not having much luck finding a place that carries the 962 on the internet or locally for that matter though. I really like the faster cutter though. I won't be climbing (ever) with my saw. Not a pro and don't feel like falling out...

all right be patient just did more research and the efco weighs in at 12.1lbs without the chain and bar and the baileys at 10.7 but with the chain and bar (which I will use it with) they quote pretty similar weights at 13.9 for baileys and 14 for JD/Efco

Just checked out the Bailey's and it weighs in at 13.9lbs? How is this better due to the fact that the JD/Efco has more hp for the same weight?
