I will have to agree. TheChainsawGuy is the man who has owned and sold just about every monster sized cc chainsaw that has ever been built, though I have NEVER seen him describe any saw as being "scary fast" before.
Dave is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

as he has had race saws.......does this mean its faster than a race saw....scary fast thats just to funny.....does it cut at ludicrous speed :msp_w00t:
 
Must have been a rough 60 days of usage for the wrap handle to be cracked, front bolt stripped and subsequently replaced, and gas cap missing. But for close to $800 it sounds like a steal of a deal.:msp_rolleyes:

That was kinda my thoughts. That saw is an 05......
 
More than likely the saw will sell locally, as falling in the area is about to go nuts and the saw is half of a new one and would make a perfect spare for a pro logger, or one just starting back with little funds. At $550 to $650 a day the fallers have no problem buying a saw for half price, and thats what they go for, but with online sales there is all the fees to pay out of it. Most fallers have 3 saws or more, since one can be down with repairs. As for the year, I have some new in box 2006 372 saws, and see all kinds of years saws since they are digging them out of all sorts of inventory from across the country. I think that saw was bought new just about a year ago.

Would someone be so kind as to put this in laymans terms? Is this a good or bad thing :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

That is a good thing,,, My uncle Skip was a west coast faller and logged in Alaska and BC Canada most of his career going through and or buying 3 saws a season is not uncommon,,,, stuff happens and some guys are just plain brutal on their equipment,,, asaw will get busted and need fixin so a back up/barswap is in order while the busted powerhead is patched up,,,, the more board feet they put on the ground a day the bigger their check at the end of the week:rock::rock::rock:
 
60 days @ a hard 6-7 hours a day of full throttle, bar-buried cutting.

Yup - just go to 1:05. Multiple that by 60 days, maybe add a few limbs, the back of a crummy, repairs(done right or wrong), throw a couple chains maybe, fall down a few times, etc etc...

see what I mean!!!!!!

sometimes you get lucky and dont break anything,,, but thats not the norm!!! I had a chain throw yesterday that took out my e clip and rim sprocket retainer washer on a new 390Xp I was using for bucking a big Bull pine for some saw logs and I didnt realize it was gone until ,,,, well after I put the chain back on the second time i finally noticed,,,,,,to make matter worse,,,my big saw had carb problems and I couldnt rob what I needed off of it cause it has an outboard clutch:angry2:
it was a good thing i had my saw tool box with me cause I had a spare washer and clip other wise I would been hosed and had to drive 15miles back to the shop each way for another saw to finish :angry:
 
i leave home evry morning with a bucking saw,felling saw,behind the skidder seat saw,and a back up saw for which ever fails. oh and a cut off saw. it takes almost a gallon of gas the first go round in the morning. now if i had a back up skidder and loader id be set.
 
I see how you are--sounds like an excellent ploy to get a bunch of firewood cut. :hmm3grin2orange:

That was what Bookerdog did @ His first gtg!!!!

Yeah I usually bring three but I would have never thought two would go down,,, I had a few problems with the carb on the big Husky earlier in the week and thought I had it lined out????? I knew I shoulda brought the 066,,,, yeah I burned a gallon up pretty quick!!!!
