I honestly don't see the attraction of one of these saws built from new components, the original saws really only appeal as historic relics, to me anyway.
Amen brother.

What I took um bridge to is the America prostituted the world crap. I don't care if the guy uses inferior Chinese parts. It's his money and his business. On the rare occasion that I go on a certain Aussie tree forum I would never use insulting language towards Australian people. I would not go there looking for advice and then say "well Australia is this or that" when I did not like the answer I got.
I'm not surprised by your post and the "likes" that followed. Some don't wake up till the shoe is on the other foot! :msp_wink:
Damn Couger tastes good with real Coke!
...about that rep...:hmm3grin2orange:
Hey bob,,, wouldn't it of been a lot easier to just go buy the bloody thing if you want to. I agree with JED1124, its your money so end of story. No need to go on and on with this thread with members getting stired up.
There are hundreds of old 90's and 70's kicking around in australia, you simply need to look.
BTW,,, the bottom end i have spare is stuck so the previouse owner has let the weather onto it. It is almost complete in the bottom end but not realy much use as is.
HO HUM CAN WE GET BACK TO THE PURPOSE OF THIS THREAD.
You took your own thread off topic, mate, so don't go getting all pissy when others reply to your thoughts. And I'm with the others who suggest you shut up, buy to damn ChiCom stuff and tell us how it works. :monkey:
As for all that world domination bull####, I'll let you geniuses solve that problem. It's 7 p.m. on a Friday, and I've spent the last four days solid working on a renovation project. Time for some BEER!
Thats what your doing when you rationalize buying a cheap ass knockoff . Just to save a bit of $. The scum that steal and produce these are the same kind of folks that would loot your house and rape your wife.
Don't overlook the fact that you are also supporting slave labor of children.... hope yall really enjoy your high quality china saw you got such a bargain on.
AND , somewhat sideways related ;... I have reservations now about buying a legit husky after dealing with this knockoff crap , is it fair ? No . But it is how it is.
If you have an ounce virtue you wouldn't even pose the thought.
F*** these dirty thievin no skill havin , R & D ripoff chicoms.. right in their collective bloody commie asses.
The complcit domestic pricks that look the other way and allow the imports can get some too.
You can still get a Stihl 070 in certain countries but it is the ms720 now. As to chinese products I ran across a bunch of military rifle sight knock offs but got them for free to test and none lasted longer than a few rounds, I'm not sure on their chainsaws but if someone were nice enough to donate one for me to test I would be more than happy to run it though its paces and see just how well it is built. As to America taking a back seat in manufacturing it is only because we imported your socialism and let it ruin a good thing and now most Americans are to dumb to notice what is happening. I must also say that there a few American saws that were made in the 70's that are still the best saws made. BTW it has been a while since Australia has manufactured a decent saw, and don't make me mention a certain movie staring Paul Hogan.
Why are we fighting on who's country is better than who's, we are all going to be speaking chinese before to long anyway.
make a chainsaw! hell we dont even make shoes or bloody clothes here anymore how are we gonna make a chainsaw and even if we did it would cost about 3 grand for a 50cc saw after the unions drive the wages up to 85 bucks an hour plus penalties, 8 weeks holiday plus 12 weeks maternity leave, 2 rdo's a month, plus wet days off even though you work inside! which means we could possibly produce 175 saws per year:hmm3grin2orange:
