In northern Ohio I believe. Just google the name
I have seen several EC saws at gtgs and have run one of them. He can build fast saws for sure.
Several YouTube vids too

I like 50 cc saws
These two are great firewood saws if your not handling to big of trees.
3400 (56 cc)
3000 (49 cc) Close enough to 50.

Never had one and never ran one - thus no love for one!
I like my two 40cc's, and love my 64 & 79cc, so I might just as well like a 50cc but I am not actively looking to add one to the stable at this point.

Me likey that Poulan 3400....I want one! I just recently aquired my first vintage greenie saw and I must say they are quality and would be right up there in their day. It would be cool if Poulan were making saws with the same intentions as they used too. I bet that 3400 would be a good firewood saw even today.

Yep love 50cc saws. I have a feeling for them. You can cut some big wood with a small saw with proper technique. A 50cc saw has made me more money than any other saw I own. Some people overate their saws. A 70cc saw for this an 80cc saw for that. In reality a 50cc saw is all that is mostly needed in my case. All that is needed is a sharp chain. Some people think they need bigger saws. In my opinion it is for their lack of sharpening skills just ram it. I remember going with my dad in the late 70/early80s. He cut with a mcculloch 10-10. He cut some huge oak trees. It would make individuals on here cringe what he cut. Imagine that it wasnt ported

From the 70s' into the 90s' Poulan was as good if not better than the other top brands.
I used a 3400 for over 20 years and it never let me down. Fantastic saw!

It is a great firewood saw still today. The 3000 with a muff mod rips too for a 49cc saw, it really surprised me!
It is amazing how nieve some buyers are. Some buy poulan wildthings or woodsharks thinking they are a great firewood saw. Seems like cheapness superseeds quality. They sell them cheap saws probaly 10 fold over a quality saw and make out. Many people chince out but dont know quality if the seen it.
I bet they were! and there is good reason many are still in service cutting wood today....that says a lot in itself. I would probably bought Poulan saws compared to brands like stihl in those days however I do have a soft spot for them ol Partners too. How cool does a 655 boost port look layed back with them dawgs sticking out!! dribble, dribble dribble!

I dunno, my McCinderblock isn't lacking in that department either! No problem pulling that 24" bar at all:
But we were discussing 50cc saws, and the displacement seems to be creeping up......

Yeah I guess my 359 is a 50cc class saw but I consider it more of a 60cc saw. But it has plenty of power for me. Although I still favor my 346xp to cut with all day.

Sharpen the chain, chuck chips ...repeat...
Ya I have been known to cut a few ricks with "just" 50 cc's....
