ya i agree..
Yep!! I sure miss skidding small logs with the old Kubota. Stacked it came out to about 6 cord, not bad for an evening of work with a little tractor.otstir:

Ya whatever tickles your fancy. If u cut and split 6 cords in one evening that is pretty impressive, but I doubt you'd be doing that by yourself.
Well there you go again. I skidded the logs in myself, then my BIL and myself cut, and split it using my huskee splitter, and his Lickity log splitter, man that thing is fast when it's working right.in
[/QUOTEgood deal. i'm still waiting for the big massive log pile pics .

The MS250 we cant get here any more but the new MS 251 which you guys will get soon has the same threaded plastic fella. That's the bad part.
Any clamshell (plastic case)saw will be of that design. Youll have to buy a pro model to get around that. I have put alot of use on homeowner saws from stihl and husky and never had this problem. You just got a bad egg. It happens
Damn this thread exploded.
Reading some of the posts/dribble you "Grown men" come up with is mildly entertaining though. Yet some are just ignorant/dense and outlandish at times(not even going to mention the idiots)...get a grip it's a forum ladies.... like wow! Some of you guys need a bit more mongrel!
I see that some have "clicked" and have benefited from my experience and telling it how it was which is what I set out to do.
So off to the dealer :rant:
The dealer says its a fault on there part. Obviously has been over tightened from factory. They are going to repair it with "the oversized stud" method.
So I said will this repair last? Or just take me past my warranty then Im up "dirty" creek without a paddle...
He insists it will be fine.
I will see how it lasts goes when I get it back, as to weather I will ask for a complete new saw. Perhaps sell it when I get and get the MS 241.
Like I said Im not rough on tools I was taught to respect them and also learnt not to hog onto bolts as it's not required. Hell you can strip a magnesium thread if your careful enough.
I know you say it's a cheap home-owners saw, but that's all I need a quality home-owners saw I'm not an arborist, I don't cut down huge trees, I do like to cut wood and cut I do when needed. Firewood, clearing etc.
Yes I got a dud, but really how long will this last without it being a dud....
There will be more to come from this when I go back to pick up the saw...oke:

Not any clamshell, small Echo saws have a metal insert molded into the case and won't pull out. Steve

A far better design IMO.
Ladies and gents have a look at our STIHL site here

NOTE--- the MS251,231 are classed as commercial grade here, with NOW only one bar stud. I sure wouldnt want to hang an 18" bar off one bar stud retained into plastic.
So between our countries your homeowner saws change into commercial grade for us!!
What is this magic!!
