If you were limited to two saws..........

[blsnelling]

346/550 and 390.

261 461 :msp_wink:

 

[bucknfeller]

You should have kept that 046! For what you paid and the condition you described you are never going to beat that. How un-CAD like of you, selling a saw like that :msp_thumbdn:

 

[blsnelling]

I agree. If going with Stihl, it'd be a 261 and a 460.

 

[Anthony_Va.]

I think I would go with a 460 or 461 over a 660 for a worksaw. You very seldom find a need for the extra torque of a 660. The extra power is'nt worth the extra weight if you don't need it.
I still think the 441C is the better all around worksaw over the 460/461. JMO. No worrying about the carb, no cleaning the filter, very smooth ride. The balance and feel of them is awesome with a 28" light bar.

I have a Woods Ported 026 PRO and a 660 Magnum with several different length bars up to 36". I'll have to admit that they would just about cover whatever. The 660 is not so heavy with a 20" bar?

But I have a Dolmar 5105 and 7900, also a Husqvarna 346NE and 372XP with an assortment of bars.

Naturally, there are duplicates and back ups for all these. I never leave the shop with just one chainsaw.

[gmax]

A MS200T and another for spares, Top Handle is the only category Stihl is a clear winner.

200 461

 

[DarthTater]

hm, only 2 eh?

I'd have to go with a Pre-EPA

440 and a 660

 

[derwoodii]

026 - 066 to make money anything small dont and bigger hurts me back

 

[beerbelly]

I love my old (almost antique by now) 020av.

second one....hmmmm I do like my new 5105.

But if it absolutely had to be a Stihl...make it a big one...how bout the 084

For what you do you have all the saw you need-realistically speaking anyway.Why don't you take the extra cash and save a few oldies from the dumpster?Once you're done fixing them up,I'll bet your saw count will be 10+ in a couple years time or less.:msp_smile:

 

[7sleeper]

Sell that stupid 261:msp_scared: and get a 200 and 441. Or if you want more a 241 MT and a 461.

Wow, the sthil , husky back an forth, gotta love it.
All things being equal, old school mcculochs.
SP 125
SP 81
As far as new saws stihl.
I can't say I ever pulled the trigger on a husky. But I've got an open mind

 

[wyk]

A moobed 346xp and a simonoodled 372xp with his piston mod. That handles sticks from 5 inches to 5 feet.

 

[bryanr2]

the title of this thread promotes anti-cadism. There is no logical reason for an individual to limit himself to 2 saws unless the individual is on some crusade of "self-inflicted punishment".:hmm3grin2orange: As a member of this site you are required to accept "Cadism" and not fight against it. It just aint natural.

 

[Whiskers]

Maybe I'm missing something here, but I thought you sold the 046 because it was more saw than you would ever need. If that wasn't true you already screwed yourself out of your best option.

 

[Gologit]

Only 2 saws? 460 and 660. And several bars.
