I went with Janome............handles heaps better doing button holes!
Anyone can see by the design blueprint it will handle while zigzaging like a brick. Its about 3.4521 ounces heavier, has an inboard spooling clutch, and has to use 3/8 needles instead of the way faster .325 ones. Of course, if it could use them needles it would pull them fine, I never said it wouldn't pull them. I think the cloth was way too inconsistent to get any meaningful results, so I'll post my results from your data and research shortly...
I'm still pretty sure sewing machines are cooler. I'm also a fan of sea salt and cracked pepper chips. :hmm3grin2orange:
Dont laugh, Husqvarna makes a decent sewing machine!! They make great saws also. 346XP it is. REJ2
I dont like the 346 solely based on that stupid primer...its not needed and i would not buy the saw because of it. Now on that note I do have my eyes on a Jred 2153 eventually. No primer bulb there
What? Won't buy it because of the primer bulb? Just don't use it. What difference does it make?
I vote to buy both of them. I don't see either one of mine going anywhere.

It just bugs me. Primer bulb sticking out the side of a pro saw bothers me. Just more fuel line and crap to deal with and replace later. I'll take a 2153 though so i can have the same saw with a choke. Plus the red matches my saws better

2153 has a primer bulb. It's right behind the starter handle. protected but handle is in the way.
Mine is bypassed, so no longer functional. There are no provisions for it's use with the 357 carb.
Guess thats why i never seen it. i cannot see it in the pics like you can on the 346.
How did you set up the choke and stuff with the 357 carb
It's a plain and simple direct bolt on replacement. You'll also need the 357 intake elbow and air filter.
I'll have to keep that in mind thanks
NP. I'd just hate to see you dismiss one of the very best saws on the market because of the primer bulb

Yea maybe that is a little silly. I still hate primer bulbs though.
I'll give you that. I don't like or need them either.

Here’s basically the same (HDA-175) set-up Brad mentioned on my 2150. You can see the primer bulb housing behind the starter handle, it’s just along for the ride now.
I do like the look of the Jred better. Its funny cause i always like the way the husky's look better except for this size saw

Do you have to take the top cover off every time for a cold start?
