Chainsaw beauty contest

Just curious as to who you folks makes the best looking saws now days.

I think the looks of the Stihl's says chainsaw more than any other brand. I know when I go into a shop with several brands I always look the Stihl's over first.

Its got to be the dolmar 7900 with the HD filter. Truly all that heaven will allow.

I voted Mcculloch but they are no longer made..at least the real Mcculloch's New ones are nothing more then a POS

 

[caotropheus]

Out of a Stihl head, undoubtedly Jonsered.

I overlooked the Dolmar products, but not intentionally. Feel free to include Dolmar. Actually would like to see one in action myself.

Old McCullochs and Homelites. They are barbaric in design... when I think "chainsaw", the old iron comes to mind.

So the poll said "Now days"...

"Now days" would be Stihl.

No doubt them ol' macs and homies are some handsome saws Gary, but they aint got nothing on the smooth lines, and just all out sexiness of the Remingtons of days gone by. They look like the 57 chevy of chainsaws.

 

[GASoline71]

They do wiggs... they do... But I like the "mechanical" look to the Macs and Homies... kinda look like a threshing machine with a bar and chain...

The Barbie Saw! Stylish and full of Bling. I should take a photo in better surroundings.

Jonsered/Jonsereds wins by a huge margin - it isn't even a competition!

 

[034avsuper]

Jonsered

 

[jsd176]

I'm a Stihl guy and voted that way but I do like the looks of some of the Solo saws.

 

[JRB31]

Old Macs and Homies, new I would say Jonsered.

 

[greg986547]

although I really like the lines of the current XP huskys, my favorites are still modded 044/066 generation Stihls

 

[pops21]

I'm gonna go with the dolmar 7900 with HD filter/top and full wrap handle. Mmmm sexy.

 

[Eccentric]

I'm with the other magnesium heads here. Old Macs and Homelites are miles ahead of anything that's made now. Tops would probably be a McCulloch Super 250. I'm sure RandyMac will post a pic of his baby here shortly. A homelite XL923 is a strikingly handsome saw too, as are the XP series and many of the old Homelite gear drives. The view of an old Homelite gear drive from the clutch/tansmission side is a fantastic vision of mechanical power...


For the modern stuff....................................well who cares...:greenchainsaw:

The "looks" problem with Stihl is that the white plastic soon looks dirty and crappy - and the discoloration is not easy to get rid of!

 

[Plankton]

Old saws definitly macs.

New saws Jonsered's number one, stihl following close second.
