Is there a relationship between these 2 companies? The reason that I ask it that it seems that some of the Dolmar p/c's fit Solo saws. Is this coincidence or is there a Husky/Jonsered-type relationship here?

Yes many parts interchange, there is a relationship (not sure how involved they are with each other though), but there are also many differences between these saws despite the looks
What in the hell is a Solo 681??
There are no Dolmar Chainsaw's made by Solo.
There is one Solo Chainsaw made by Dolmar. Dolmar PS-9010/Solo 694. The only difference is the color & air filter hood.
The Solo 681/675/665 look like the Dolmar PS-7900/7300/6400 but are different saws. There are a few parts that will interchange but only a few.
Solo did manufacturer some string trimmers & hedge trimmers for Dolmar but that did not come to the US/Canada.

...but the Dolmar is perceived to be the better saw and commands a higher selling price. Bailey's has pressured Makita for access to all their models to no avail because Dolmar doesn't want the competition and is still running the show.
I just spent over an hour working on a post on the History of Dolmar. I had it all done I went to use the spell checker then I lost it all.
