Hello all....long time lurker...first time poster. Anyways, a brief history: My first saw was a Stihl 028...used it for a while then sold it cheap to someone after it started having all sorts of problems. Needed a saw a while later, so I cheaped out and bought a craftsman to cut firewood and also help clear some trails on my friends farm. Lets just say I got what I paid for with that saw. I am now looking for another saw for firewood/ anything else that might arise (storm damage and so on). At the moment I am using a Mcculloch 310 that my dad had bought back in the early 80's. It runs and cuts great, but I'd rather not use it very heavily as it does have some sedimental value. Im trying to look for a used saw, and have come down to a 026 or a 029. If YOU were going to get one one...which would it be? Also...what differentiates the 026 from the 026 PRO? I have also come across a 036 pro..and a 039 in pretty good shape. Anything good/bad on these? I realize they are likely more saw then I need, but it also wouldn't hurt to have a bigger saw at times. Thanks
