    I FINALLY finished my shop!

    Nothing will keep out a determined individual, 2 hours put this bank vault door in the parking lot. Having good relationships with your neighbors and watching each others backs is priceless.

    Stihl 2-cycle mix question.

    While certainly not fool proof my cut off saw will not rev above an idle if there is no oil in the tank. The solo is lighter than the husky it replaced and a few CC bigger.

    Looking for large battery chainsaw to replace one of mine.

    Its Electric!

    I am trying not to get into the weeds too far here, I do not want to be the reason the thread gets moved. There are a lot of failures in this particular segment of the economy, a whole lot of them.

    Stihl 400 cm specs

    I bought a 500i a couple of years ago it is an absolute beast in medium sized wood, I have a ms650 for bigger wood and an 881 when required. I wanted a lighter saw for the smaller stuff, the 400 seems ok so far but I am pretty partial to the 500.

    Capability isn't in question, it is portability that is the problem, electric drives have been around a long time.
