Posted this somewhere else bofore i noticed the "CHAINSAW" area:msp_confused:
I'm a member of a Disaster Relief at our church in southern IN and need help selecting a saw that will be for personal cleanup and firewood use as well as disaster relief(clearing down trees and such)
I have it narrowed down to a stihl due to other teams having them would make parts availability on site a plus
Need help deciding between a 261, 362, or a 441. I'm six foot tall and 200lbs and would consider myself experienced in the use of a saw but definitely not an expert. In a disaster scenario i could be running this thing all day for days on end so weight and maneuverability are a factor but please explain the benefits/drawbacks of the bigger saws versus the smaller and anything else you would consider helpful.
thanks ahead of time
