Climber's saw recommendations?

[iangoldsmith196]

Hi.

I was wondering if you US tree guys could recommend any dealers that you've used and might ship to the UK.

I need to buy a top handle saw and buying from the US makes great economic sense at the moment... at least it does for me.

So if you fine chaps over the great sea could point me to a couple of good US dealers I would be delighted to support your economy.

Many thanks gentlemen.

Baileys always has some good deals.

I got my husq 338XP, although I wouldnt recommend that saw, not as powerful as the Stihl M200T?

Baileys can't ship mushkies anymore.

The holy grail of climbing saws is the MS200T, the Dolmar 3410 is a good 2nd choice.

iangoldsmith196, your best bet would be the Dolmar if you are looking to get one shipped. Stihl doesn't ship saws or sell online. Scan the sponsers and give them a call.

MS 200T and 335 XPT are both good choices.

had good luck with both... although 335 XPT needs a muffler mod to wake it up

200T is the only way to go.

If you find something you like in the states, I'd be glad to help you purchase it and ship it to you if it would help.

200t is the saw if your on a steady diet of takedowns. that saw is all about making cuts.

338xp if your a pruning type of guy, its a little bit better on the ergonomic design. in my opinion this saw is a stud as well but wont get after it like the 200t. it might be near it after you tweak the muffler abit.

i run/own them both but truth be told the husky hasnt been used in a hot minute.


dont know anything about that baby dolmar but wouldnt mind getting a chance to run one.

Try this question down in the saw forum. Lots of dealers down there and several that i can vouch for personally.

 

[iangoldsmith196]

Many thanks chaps!

What can I say! Once again you've all come up trumps and have been more than helpful.

I know the Stihl is a better saw, but finance is a key issue and I'm also not a solid user of aerial saws.

Anyway thanks greatly gents!

[Nailsbeats]

no 192t?

Come on guys, no recomendations for this beast of a saw? Price is right. I have one and like it.

Oldirty, I have finally saw the 200t, even held it in my hands, the heavens opened at that exact moment as echo's of "2hunge" rang in my head. Call it fate, call it destiny, but she will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine (curtain).
