    CS 590

    I'll have to disagree with you on this one. I ran my 620 next to a new 590 and it ran like it was a much bigger saw. Both wearing 24 inch bars. They may cut closer with a smaller bar though. Ymmv. I initially went to purchase a 590 but after handling them both the the metal handle and covers...

    CS 590

    Without a doubt. In fact, my 620 outcuts my 680. Of course that's a different animal altogether. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Have you considered the echo 620p? It'll beat the pants off a 590. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Cs 800p or g660

    I've got a handful of echos and they are great saws for the money. My 620pw is my go to saw. That being said my cs8000s haven't left the garage since I got a 3120. It's a well built saw with lots of torque but the power to weight just isn't there. At 17lbs it's a pig for how fast (slow) it cuts...

    Anyone running echo professionally?

    No professional use here but I've been running a 620pw wearing a 24 bar for two years now. Gets used at least once a week. Clear cut a 5 acre lot with that and a 680 this fall. The 680 only left the truck a few times. I've got a couple cs8000s that are left on the mill. I'm pretty hard on my...

    Echo bar fit Husqvarna?

    I run Huskys and Echos. Echo (d176) bars wont fit over the Husky (d009) studs without a little file work. The husky bar will fit over the echo studs but there's too much play. I made an adapter out of a recoil spring but I've since gave up on that. Also, echo bars use shorter chains than the...

    What's your preferred chain type for bars over 60"?

    I'm no expert but I run 27rx hyper skip chain on my 72" bar. I have not run anything else on that size bar to compare it to but no problems so far. After a few more hours on the mill I'll report back. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Want to Trade 42 and 24 d009 bars

    I could, but I already have another 42" bar for my 3120 and I dont use it much. Figure I'd get more use out of a smaller bar for it or another bar for my echos. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Want to Trade 42 and 24 d009 bars

    I have a 42 inch, .063, 3/8 Oregon bar with less than half a tank on it and a new 24 inch, .058 3/8 Tsumara bar. I would like to trade for a 24-28 inch .050 3/8 d176 mount bar or a 28-36 .063 404 d009 mount. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Want to Sell Qv8000

    Just to throw another opinion out there, I bought my first cs8000 for $300 pho, and the second with a bad crank for $150. Before I bought my 3120 I planned on buying a new cs800p. The cost from my local dealer was $815 and if I waited until the spring sale it came to around $740 with a 36" bar...

    I have heard that but have never been able to verify it. Do you know what carb you have? Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Want to Sell Qv8000

    I've seen them go for $200-$500. Worth more with the Quick Vent bar. Otherwise it's just a cs8000. Sent from my SM-J337V using Tapatalk

    Parts for old circular saw mill?

    Im having trouble visualizing what you mean. Do you need a thrust bearing on the shaft or a guide further out on the blade? Maybe you could take a close up picture with an arrow pointed to where you need the stabilizer. Something that old would almost undoubtedly need to be custom fabricated. Do...

    Double ended milling bars

    GB bars makes one. I ordered a 72" single ended bar from Left Coast for my 3120. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

    Anyone know much about this sawmill?

    Also, I don't see an aux oiler. I'd definitely add one or two. As far as chain I'd look into a super skip or hyper skip. Ymmv. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    Anyone know much about this sawmill?

    Don't know anything about that mill but it looks almost exactly like the one I'm building! Ive scrapped the chainsaw powerhead in favor of a 21hp 4 stroke though. If you find anything else about it let us know. Definitely a cool mill. If you were closer I'd have to come check it out. Sent from...
