It appears that both of those 60cc saws are out of their element trying to pull 24" through hardwood.:help: The Echo has a great sound and doesn't drop nearly as many rpm as the vaunted 262xp.:rock: Thanks, but no thanks, I'll keep my old 272xp.:msp_thumbup:

So the Echo beat a 262 and the Stihl couldn't pull a long enough bar to make it all the way through the log.

This makes me giggle. Good job brody :)

There's no denying that Stihl is a little weapon - very impressed

The ECHO, maybe fractionally ahead of the Husky

The Husky, I expected a lot more of it - disappointed.

Thats my personal opinion for my own consumption thanks :msp_razz:

Very nice to see the videos! The reality check didn't quite work out because the trunk wasn't cut through :msp_tongue: :laugh:

Waiting for some more videos.

I was wondering do you feel the smoothness of the twin also in the cut compared to the old and new iron?
