dsm, how'd you cut your hand? saw kickback?
cool, but not sure what all those numbers mean. and last chain i put togeather was for my Quad many years ago.he might have some skip. I might have a loop of skip you can have,.It will be .375 .50 72DL
hey thanks. will be out of town next saturday but back hard at it on sunday.Im not sure what they have in stock anymore. I work up in Indy and usually go to the dealer close to my work. Might give em a call. Or like ericjeeper said try Rick's next to Bender lumber. Not sure of his hours though. If I didnt have plans Id come help cut it up today. Ive got a couple saws to try out. Let me know if you find anything.
Okay you guys have mentined two saws, Johnny's Red 2171 or an Orange 372XP.
i know the debate of which saw is the best is a long running arugument and we will never have EVERYONE agree. but really is Sthil really # 3 out there??
HEY! RDT?
does Ace sell Skip tooth chains for the Sthil?
I need to get my 044 and 064 projects done this winter.built like tanks and just can't be beat
These are my favorite's(044/440), built like tanks and just can't be beat. I hope to be trading a 2171 for another 044 here soon. There is a used 460 in the classifieds that looks like it wood serve you well, maybe send the guy a reasonable offer....
yes, yes you do that's why I bought the Stihl's i have.Stihl is way too far up to be #3, more like #1. The 2171/372's are nice saws but the Stihl 441 or 460 would be another choice, built much better than the elux's imo. The Dolmar 7900 would be my next choice after the 441/460, both great saws. Remember, you get what ya pay for....
thanks, not a bad idea, but used always scares me, but then new that thing is $900...... WOW!..... I paid $380.00 for my MS310, case, chain, gal bar oil, six pack of oil. now the saw itself is $410.0 i noticed yesterday.....These are my favorite's(044/440), built like tanks and just can't be beat.

What saws do you have in the picture 2000? A 440 and 460? What length bar is on the saw with the big dawgs?
yes, yes you do that's why I bought the Stihl's i have.
I only want to buy once.
bought a cheap plastic drywall pole sander figure it would be just fine for remodeling the house, but broke it after the first room, went and got the 'good' one that was only $10 more, wife said NEXT TIME get the GOOD one!!!!!! first!!!!!!!

no worries, i posted else where about the new chisel tooth i tried tonight, and now i need to get a skip and 24" bar and i can tear that log up.dsm382 the saw I was telling you about is all ready gone. Im kicking myself in the rear for not buying when I heard about it.
that's good to hear.That sounds just like me when people ask me what saw to buy. I say if you want to buy right the first time, go with Stihl. I mention husky sometimes but always hear, "Ain't they sold at blowes?" I say yup, try a Stihl.
I know it's hard to buy used but most guys here are straight up and are truthful, more saw nuts like us.
