3 saws

[rdtreewalker]

Easier question then what one saw would you pick if you had to pick just one. If you could only have 3 saws what would they be?

I would go with stihl 261, 362, and 460.

[Locust Cutter]

MS200T or 346xp, a middle saw (562xpAT, 372xp, 576xpAT, 7900, MS362, MS440/460) and a BIG saw (395xp/2100cd/084/088/MS880 Snellerized/or a Mac 125sp)
For a good while my usual daily cutting lineup was either my 346xp or 55 Husky, and my 039 and MS660 stihls. The Huskies had 16" bars, while the Stihls ran from 16"-36" bars. There wasn't much in the better part of the US I couldn't have handled. Now those saws are dead, SO, I'm currently fielding a MS261, a Makita DCS6401 and a Stumpbroke 372xp. I was going to doctor the Makita up, BUT I think I will trade it in/sell it off in favor of either a 562xp or a 395xp.

Better yet, I'd like all of the above referenced saws. Than I'd be free to go after the old-school BIG iron... :msp_w00t:

200T for < 8" wood
Ported 362 for > 8" wood
1970s 010AV on life-support with a 16" bar for when someone needs to "borrow my saw"

 

[Roll Tide]

MS261, MS441, 395XP, all ported by the chimp with the 1911.:msp_thumbup:

 

[Arrowhead]

026
046
Pioneer P62

 

[Matt J Leppek]

Ms200t 346xp 372xp. Don't run into any trees to big for a 372 around here sadly

 

[Nardoo]

P5000, 8500, 090AV. Old school iron would get me out of trouble.

Al.

 

[Sabertooth]

Dolmar 5105, Husky 359, and Dolmar 7300

 

[bcorradi]

011, 026, and 044 would get me by.

 

[tallguys]

Dolmar 3410TH, 5105 and 6800i

 

[MEATSAW]

Hmm

550XP - 16"

044 - 20"

137cc 090G

 

[roostersgt]

Ms260 pro- 16"
036 pro - 20"
ms440 mag - 25", 32"

 

[Scandy14]

Stihl: 261, 361 and 460.
-or-
Husqvarna: 550xp/346xp, 371xp and 395xp.

 

[T0RN4D0]

MS200T, a pro 50cc (260, 261, 346xp...) and a 70+ thing, depending on what size wood you come across (lets say 441cm or 460 for me)

 

[bootboy]

My own arsenal: echo 360t, echo cs600p, ms460.

My second string saws are a poulan 2300 cva and an ms180cq

I'd only replace the 360t with a 200t. The 600 and the 460 couldn't be better.

 

[sawfun9]

first string: 200t, 044, Mac sp125
second string: 200t, ms460, ported 880

Others equally good would be 026, 346, 372, Dolly 166.
