Ultimate Three Saw Plan

[sawsawsaw]

Thanks Ironworker.

Those are my 'Skittles' saws - so colorful !

I love that 2188 - gotta get me one !

My CAD is way out of control. Wonder if anyone has done an ultimate 25 saw plan thread yet.

How about a Poulan 5200 with 24" bar and chain, a 3400 with a 20" bar and chain and a S25CVA with a 16" bar and chain. (S25CVA is waiting on a carb kit.)

Cool.

Cool.

Thanks, I have a couple other Poulan's but I figured that made a good 3 saw combo

 

[gunrush128]

For me it's a Mastermind 550xp(coming soon) with 16" bar, Wicked Worksaw 562xp with 20"bar, and Mastermind 365/372xp with 24" bar.


.....plus a few others....but if it were only 3, those would be the ones that stayed

Im just getting started but for me its husky 371, 262 ported by rattler and 242. Will upgrade but pretty satisfied right now.

My 3 saw plan is actually 4 saws, has a narrower range than most, but are of the size I need the most. The ported 362 with a 20" bar works great as my small saw, and can do some bucking if need be, my ported 046 is an animal with a 24" bar, and really speeds up bucking good sized wood (and I plan to get a larger bar in the future 28 or 32 light), and the two 044s are good to have if you are doing a combo of limbing & bucking, so I often take one of them if I have to take just one saw into a remote location.

For 18 years I just had the one 044 and did everything with it, but it is nice to have a smaller and larger saw, respectively, to better suit the situation.

My 3 saw Poulan plan would be 8500, 330 for 95% of the time and 25SDA
My 3 saw Husky plan is 350, 372XP, 389XP

Glad my CAD is in remission.

WINNING!

My 3 saw plan: Stihl ms 170, 12" - pruning and brush clearing.
Husqvarna 242 xpg, 13" - main saw for forestry work.
Jonsered 2172, 18" & 25" - for larger trees and milling.

 

[KenJax Tree]

3 saws and still do my job......200T/201T with 14"-16" bars, 550xp 18" bar, 372xp 20"-28" bars.

 

[Mastermind]

I sold my MS261XB......

But I replaced it a 346XP NE by Wigglesworth. First ported saw I've ever owned that someone else ported. Well......first one that I'm not gonna redo.

Then I have a MS362C, 3 MS460s, 2 064s, and a MS660. And other brands.......and stuff.

Wait........that's more than three huh?

 

[Duane(Pa)]

I use the 3 as an exponent. Seems to work pretty well....

 

[cgraham1]

2188, 7900, 562xp... All ported. I see no point in a 50cc saw at all. I keep trying them and I just don't like them.

 

[cgraham1]

This would be okay, too. Yes I know that a 261 is 50cc.

 

[cgraham1]

Or this...

 

[Mastermind]

How about 088, 066, 044?

 

[babybart]

Echo cs520, Husky 371xp and hunting for the third saw- a 395xp..... tax time is here!!!!

I usually carry 4 or 5 saws when I cut firewood,and firewood is the main reason why I have more than one saw. Saws are:
MS361 -20" bar
o41 -16" bar
021 -14" bar
o2ot -14" bar
Echo 360t -12" bar
I cut standing dead timber, mostly red oak (because it is readily available) usually in the 8" to 20"diameter range, sometimes larger. I like the smaller saws for limbing, use the 361 and 041 for bucking, and the top handle saws are also used for tree work. I also carry a HT 131 sometimes for special cutting problems. One problem I use the pole saw for is getting into the osage orange trees that grow around here. They grow like large bushes with interlocking branches and long tire puncturing thorns. The pole saw will get in between the branches and allow me to cut branches off near the trunk of the tree and escape unpunctured.
I like to try to run all the saws some on each trip to prevent carb problems caused by stale ethanol gas.
