To the OP:
Just curious. Is your saw w/bow bar running the original 1/4 pitch chain?

 

[xtremez]

Wow. Never heard of that one.

Yeah, lost a few I was bidding on.

you are mistaken.

They made a whole series of accessories for that series. There were hedge trimmers, drills, and a few other cool add ons available.

I have the HS150 Hedge trimmer attachment and the FS150 trimmer unit for the 015 saws. I also have the hedge trimmer for the 024/026

interesting vids, thanks.
when I was working on a firewood crew in Almond and Walnut orchards we mostly used 24 or 28" bars depending on a person's height...for the same reasons explained in that guy's vids. We would, however, wear out a lot of tips
