New here, love the site.
Ok, I just recently picked up a nicely running Stihl 026 and absolutely love it. I've ran cheap saws before but this is the first nicer one that I have owned. It could use a little TLC but it's my only saw and I'm always on the hunt for wood for my woodturning. I'm dying to give it a good 'going over' and get it looking really good too. However, since it's my only one, I know the minute I start any work on it, I'll get a call to go cut up some wood!
With that, where are some good places to go looking for a project saw? I would like to find something with more displacement than the 026 but not go crazy and pick up a 066 or something like that.
Any suggestions? Also, if you have any decent candidates that won't kill my wallet (just to get the saw), shoot me a PM or reply here.
Thanks guys. Awesome site!
