Like everybody else, I'm happy with my purchase from weedeaterman and blown away by the Sugi bars. I got an 18" small husky mount and a 24" large mount. Randy, when you get the 20" large husky in will it be subject to this sale? The 24 is too nose heavy for my 562 so I'll have to buy a 372xp or 390xp for that one. :clap:

Props to these guys for throwing this sale out there for us. I dealt with Henry and I received my Sugihara bar shortly thereafter. Will shop with them again. Oh and that bar looks hot on the 372!!

A 24" is front heavy on any decent 60cc saw, even a 20" tends to be. I prefere a 16", unless I really need more! ;)

For sure, I agree. I wanted the 24" as I can use it with the wood I cut and with the deal Randy is offering, I had to buy it now. I am currently looking for the right saw to run this bar, though the 562 could handle it for the few hours a year I need it. In fact, my 562 could pull the 32" bar, with a full skip and an easy hand. It might be slow for the two hours a year I need it, but it wouldn't actually end humanity as we know it.

The oil output might create issues though, with a 32" bar - even with limited use. ;)

I wouldn't hand that setup to a new hire laborer, but I also wouldn't be afraid to run my 562 with my 32" Stihl es bar. I'd have a full skip chain, would have a light touch, and maybe use lighter oil for higher flow. I'd cut from both sides with a 20" bar and finish the last bit with the 32. It could be made to work in a pinch with a good operator.

I make a living operating machinery quite a bit more complicated than a chainsaw. ;) I could and would make it work.
