Needed saw builder near Michigan

[661Joe]

Hi yall im looking to get in touch with someone that does good work. I wanna wake these saws up if possible. A ms 460 a 009l and possibly a 036. If anyone could point me in the right direction thatd be great. I searched and read but never got a clear answer. Thanks in advance Joe

his name is Scott Kunz his saws are top notch
@crabby cooter

 

[661Joe]

Anyone have any saws from him? Seen some vids on YouTube saws look strong. Also thanks buck futter for the replie

Know lots of guys with saws done by him. No worries.

 

[661Joe]

Bad boy is screaming... so is it realistic to say one built right would have 7.5 hp give or take?

 

[cus_deluxe]

I dunno about horsepower, but a saw from him will surely be a good runner. Where in mi are you?

 

[661Joe]

Monroe / Petersburg area why you ask? I think i will send it his way i mean whats the worst that could happen.. hmmm i do have about twenty saws hope he dont do to good of a job lol.

The Stihl you use the most. If you like it now, you will not be able to stop smiling when you get it back.

I use them all lol here in Michigan i use my 661 on every other tree at least. With a 36in bar. Alot of big trunked trees around. But we also have 4 460s on the ground. 036/460 in tree when needed.. i think its the 460 that's going to go

I have a 288 that randy (mastermind) did and a 262 that Al (drf256) did. Very pleased with both. Ive met scott several times at GTGs, hes one of the best out there. You should check out some of the 661 videos he has, i doubt theres anyone in the country thats done as much work on 661s as scott and julian.
