I used a similar method to what David Saltas used. My wife wanted the Stihl MS 660 out of the hallway where it has sat since March when I used it to cut some 30 inch red oak up for firewood. I wasn't about to store a $1000.00 chain saw ($1,300.00 with extra bar and chains) in a shed where it could be stolen!
I bought a Plano XXL Storage Trunk size 37 3/4 inches by 18 1/4 inches by 14 inches (exterior measurements) from Home Depot. I used a 3/4 inch paddle bit to drill out the top and bottom of the cut for the bar and cover and a 3/8 inch paddle bit to cut out the top and bottom for my 36 inch bar and cardboard container. I cut out the material between the top and bottom of the pilot holes with a jig saw with a metal cutting blade. Look at the attached pictures. I had to make the hole for the bar and sheath a little longer with the jig saw but the cut out for the 36 inch bar was perfect with the first try! I measured up 1 1/2 inches from the bottom for the 3/4 inch paddle drill hole for the bar and cover and made the cut right next to the side of the molded indentation for the handle. Make sure that you make the holes for the bars on the end opposite the wheels. I placed the cuts for the 36 inch bar and cover so that it sat on top of the inside cover for the wheel.
You get a big roomy storage container for your MS 660 and can secure it in the back of your truck and can stack things on top of it when stored in your home.
