cs455t, sounds good lol, yes it should have been cs355 not a typo, I failed
.
That’s 8 lbs powerhead, with bar and chain it would exceed what I’m used to carrying.
Yeah, but it will have a lot more power too and it will come with a longer bar.
I can’t find bar and chain weights...
I’ll pick you up at the airport and you can carry it. Lol.
I might go for it if I knew the total weight.
355 is 1.4 lbs heavier, and probably bulkier.
I like first hand accounts like that, it would mean more to me if it came from a trail worker.
Currently I am not burning any wood. In the past, I have often burn wood of that size, often not even splitting. I also have often used my splitter as a shear for the few limbs and other small stuff. Mostly just to keep from having to crank a saw. My splitter would already be running and splitting, it was just a matter of inserting the small rounds sideways to the wedge, shear it and toss it in the pile. My wedge is a knife wedge and very sharp, locust or not, it would shear that small wood pretty easy.
Beautiful out today!! My best friend asked for new areas to scrounge so I loaded up the skidoo and visited my wood lot! Cut a few blow downs with the 036 but the mission was to scout more firewood for us. I didn’t take any pictures of actual cutting but what the heck, I’ll add a couple anyway.
EDIT: I suppose I should add, the only important thing on the map for him would be the 3 colors and the writing in pen. For you folks, welcome to my wood lot and where we lived for 4+ years until recently.. I should've maybe included a better colored map, I didn't know I was going to post it here

I see references to Saw King, but can’t find it in a search. Anyone know where to look? Supposed to be able to help with bar conversions.
Rich is the guy you would need to talk to, that's who did August Hinkleys saws(the guy who's video you posted last night.
Rich is in Oregon, I watch his videos on YouTube.

All many guys do is mod the stihl bars to fit.
Here's a link to some pictures of my 2511 and a craftsman 2.0, probably similar to your saw.

I’m seriously thinking about buying this saw and selling a bunch of other small ones.

I saw this and had to laugh and think back to Zogger when he joked of having “attack fowl and velociquackers” in his yard.
I messaged August on YouTube, he referred me to The Chainsaw Guy, I found him on eBay. If it’s the right one.
It’s not very often here it gets in the teens I guess we’ll see what happens
