Very nice. Only problem (for me) is it's value crashes as soon as the buyer touches wood with it.

My neighbor doing the climbing and cutting is almost 59 years old and has and rides a desk all day. He amazes me every time we do this.

Thanks for the comments guys. We only do this occasionally as a hobby, mostly for family and friends, so our equipment and experience is limited. I'll richen up the 200t. The big saw is a 372xp, modded by Terry Landrum and used 32 inch bar with skip tooth chain.

Several cords just in branches, and the main stem is still uncut.

I have not posted much lately but decided to share a recent experience with taking down a giant oak tree in my front yard. My neighbor and I did the work ourselves. I only did the ground work and narrated the video camera. I'm sure we probably did not do everything perfectly, but we got it...

good luck finding a new old stock 372xp

Hope you can sell it for the price asked. Sounds like a great deal for someone with a need for all of those bars and chains. Not so good for someone just wanting the saw.

Purple Power Cleaner works great.

OK all you horders, Lets see your 346xp??

Only one on Ebay and it' beat: 500 listings of parts and accessories with one beater saw.

It's been several years since I've been active here. Anyone notice there are virtually no Husqvarna 346xp's for sale on Ebay or anywhere else? Lots of them out there, so people must be hording them. So what would you have to get to part with your 346xp?

That's a keeper. Nice score.

Might want to try setting up a "Go Fund Me" Page instead the Arbortsite Classified.

The Echo is pro construction with magnesium case, bolt on cylinder, inboard clutch, and adjustable oiler, and more power than a Husky 455.

I don't remember there being much restriction in the muffler, other than that restrictive insert behind the screen.

The 590 weighs 13.3 lbs dry, almost 3 lbs more than the 490. I'm hopeful the 490 will gains more power after breakin.

Does anyone know if the Echo and Husky bars are interchangeable on these two saws?

These are actually the results I was expecting. The Echo is a real dog stock, but is vastly improved with a muffler mod. Cetainly no 346XP, but still a nice little saw, light weight and nimble.

Here is another comparison of the Husqvarna 346XP and the Echo CS-490 Chainsaws. Both have new chains and the same cutting technique was used. No surprise that the 346XP is more powerful and cut faster. (6 seconds) and the Echo CS-489 averaged 9 seconds.

I retuned the CS-490 and it's now running quite strong in the cut. Only has one tank of fuel so should get some further gains. It's blowing 200 psi compression on my guage. It's a completely different saw after the muffler mod.
