I've boughted a few saws myself in my day.

Sure, there's a comparison between a 70E and a 440. The 70E is a tank, slow and heavy, and has gobs of torque.

The 440 is light and fast and almost dangerous with a razor sharp chain.

not to mention the 440 is a lot easier to find parts for!

CAD strikes again

I have always been a one maybe 2 saw fella... since being on this site..I have another and another..crap..now 6. just recently purchased another 036 and 2 ms 660's believe me...it gets worst..that ebay is addictive too..stay away from there. trust me. I need a compression guage to check them before I even put gas in..that was my first burn..but I will make good on it someday. either way...if I can keep busy and stay away from the boob tube I figure it is worth it either way.. best of luck.. lessons sometimes cost a little but well worth it. keep going.. your bound to catch up sooner or later..hell what else are you going to spend money on!!
