Appreciate the replies, Thank You

Thank you for your fast reply. I found a thread I started 5 years ago that listed the weight of several bars with images of the bar on a scale. Maybe you will post up your pics on that thread...

A Ported 361 From Wicked Work Saws. Currently has a 20" bar. Thinking of a Lightweight 24" Bar with 3/8 .050. Just looking for a little extra reach when working on the ground and saving the back. Looking at a 24" TsuMura Light weight bar unless there is a better option. Would like to keep to 3/8...

Anyone know the weight of a Tsumura Light 24" .050 3/8 Bar. The part number is 204FK4. Thanks

Looking for a ported 550xp or ported Jonsered 2253. Would take PHO as I want to run a 16" 3/8 chain and bar. Thanks

Finally got the 25" Sugihara Lightweight Bar in 3/8 .050. Going to use it with the Homelite410 spacer on the 70cc Ported Jonsered. Bar weighs 2 lbs 12.8 oz The Sugihara is 2 oz less than the 28" techlite bar.

Prayers sent

I have a ported 2260 that was done by Tlandrum and it's my favorite saw hands down. Feels the same size and weight as my ported stihl 261 with lots more power. I love that ported 2260. If I just had to have one saw it would be the ported 2260. Running a Pro Lite 20" 3/8 .050 bar and stihl rs...

I have both a ported Stihl 261 and a ported Husky 550xp. It's absolute nonsense that the Husky is built any worse than the Stihl. If you want a lightweight limbing saw the 550xp would be a better choice. If you wanted a saw to get into a bit bigger wood the Stihl 261 is a good choice. Both...

I have the 14" E Light Bar on My Snellerized 201C rear handle running Stihl PS 3/8 Picco chain. Great setup. Here is some video footage of it in action.

Ported saws are a joy to use. What bar and chain are you running ?

Hope you all have a safe and healthy year in 2014

Weedeaterman has a Sugihara lightweight 24" stihl bar available and will use homelite410 adapater. Really looking forward to try out this bar. It has been a major production finding a lightweight 24" 3/8 .050 bar for the Husky large mount. Will post of some video of it running when I get the bar.

Why do you want a Sugihara bar ? The Stihl Light bar in 14" works so well. Combined with Stihl PS 3/8 Picco chain it cuts very well on my Snellerized 201-C. Here Is My Snellerized 201-C With 14" Stihl Light Bar In Action

I was searching for a pair of Kevlar boots and was torn between the 7" high Haix Protector extreme with 4 layers of Kevlar and the 10" Matterhorn MT2000 with 7 layers of Kevlar. NMurph's post which describes how his 7 layer Kevlar mattherhorns boot saved his foot from his ported 346 saw...

Excellent point, you lead by example not lip service. Your kids watch everything you do so you might as well do it right to teach them.

Made myself a promise that I will never run the saw without chaps and plan to stick to it. Helmet with face shield and Kevlar gloves as well. Also have a pair of mattherhorns chainsaw boots on the way. Just too hard to fix body parts due to the lack of protective gear. Saws are no joke and you...

I have a Ported 2166 that Terry did. Best value in a ported 70cc saw. Do yourself a favor and just buy it already ported from Terry and you will not be sorry, Great saw and lots of power. Should be perfect with a 24" bar.

Have TLandrum port your 550xp and one of your 562's and you will be set. Once you run ported it's hard to go back. For where we are in western, NC a ported 550xp with 16" bar and a Ported 2260 with 20" bar would be all the saws you would ever need. Now the want is a different story.

The Ported 2166 pulls the 28" just fine but I think a 24" will be better. It has been a long drawn out battle to find a lightweight 24" bar and have finally decided to get a Lightweight Sugihara 3/8 .050 24" bar with stihl mount and use the adapter from homelite410. I have also been thinking of...
