    Stihl HT 133 already discontinued?

    Cheap plastic head that breaks easily, the pole extension lock freezes up so you can barely extend it, you can’t run hedge trimmer heads on it, I could not run 16” 3/8 pitch lite bars on it like the old model. I did however like the quality of cuts with the 1/4 pitch chain

    BANDIT opens dealership in Portland, OR

    Bellingham is where Wesspur is or was located. They split into two companies. The arborist gear, which is still available online, then the equipment side turned into another company, don't remember their name and I am not sure they are in business anymore.

    BANDIT opens dealership in Portland, OR

    Wesspur had the bandit dealership on Columbia Blvd about 15 years ago then moved to 109th and SE Division. They left Oregon a few years ago. They had Chippers and climbing gear and rayco stump grinders.

    Good saw for firewood business???

    Stay away from the ms260. The original O26 ran at around 15500 rpms and was a great limbing saw and occasional small bucking saw. The new ms260 runs a lower rpms and it is junk. I tried one not long ago and it was pathetic. Ms362 is the only way to go with either a 20"-25" bar. I have two 362's...
