    Chinese chainsaw

    This sure appears to be the same saw, just wearing a blue color case for $129shipped. http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Max-03265-18-Inch-Gas-Powered/dp/B0018QFGTA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1281407803&sr=8-1 I'd feel safer buying from Amazon that some unknown. I'm begining to like the...

    I'm pretty sure the modern Homelite is made in China and The Modern McCulloch is made in Taiwan.

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Your so right oh knowledgeable one. I had to go check after seeing your post. I kept the box so I could remember to get the same one in the future. So much for remembering LOL. The burned up Poulans got the 91VS chain the Husky got a Stihl Oilomatic full chisel chain. I bought them both at a...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    I just thank God it had a 28" bar on it. It sure did the job for me, never seemed to struggle to run it. I ran a 91VS chain on it the last weekend of the job and I really love the 91VS chain. Should have started the job with it. I'm not sure what was on it before the 91VS but it didn't cut...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Wow I see it's been over a year since I was last here so no one may be interested in this anymore. After this last post I headed back to my Brothers to finish this job. I did get a couple of offers of help from this site but they didn't pan out partly because I no longer could afford extras like...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Well my brothers health has been pretty poor and he's just getting back his weight to just over 100lbs so he really can't do that much. I did 96% of what you see in the photos myself. No I wasn't taking it easy. I busted my ass from sun up to sun down Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I'm pretty dang...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    This is very true. It may very well still be in the 80's or 90's here in October. The tree is just outside Lakecity, FL off Pinemount Rd. It's about 1 hour and 45 minutes southwest of Waycross.

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    I really appreciate all the info and knowledge you guys are sharing. I'm going to head up to my brothers place this coming Friday with my Husky 162SE and two Poulan 2150's that were givin to me by some friends trying to help. I spent a few hours today cleaning them up, sharpening the chains and...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Yes it was blown down in high winds. It was a live tree, but not sure how healthy as the roots broke away from the trunk. First oak I've seen blown over that didn't pull up a lot of roots. I have a couple of photos one sort of shows the base. Not sure anything is feeding it anymore. It's been...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Himwill that is a very generous offer. Very generous, Tenn is a long way from here. I'll need to check with my brother first but I think he'd be ok with that. He's got a couple extra beds. I wasn't expecting this, I didn't come here to beg. Since I have a long weekend next weekend I may still...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    Unfortuntly it's 80" through the middle. We couldn't find any mill that would come get it. I hate to see it go to waste. Most of the trees grown in FL & GA are for plup so these big oaks just don't have anywhere to go.

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    As much as I'd love to use this as an excuse to by a monster big saw, I can't. Money is tight and my current job will end in 10 months when we officially go bankrupt. I'm praying it doesn't but times are tough for me and my family right now. My brothers not much better off. Lot of health...

    Husqvarna 162SE. PLEASE HELP

    I have a fairly well cared for 1976 Husqvarna 162SE with a 28" bar that's been passed around in my family. It's been a life saver when we get storms and hurricanes that blow over trees down here in Florida and Georgia. It's been used to cut many oaks mostly, some camphor and to fall some big...
