What is the perfect chainsaw for what "You" cut

[MountainHigh]

Or

Have you done a powerhead only weight comparison and are you running .325 chain on the Jonsred (I'm guessing 3/8)? Other than any weight reduction with the Jonsred, I'd be interested to know anything else you like more about the 2260 versus the 562xp? thnx

Lately, a lightly ported Shindaiwa 577 with a 16" bar, 3/8" chain and an 8 tooth rim.

Poulan 3450 type 3.

True story.

Another vote for the MS361. My Dolmar 7900 would be a close second, but tough to beat the 361.

Depends on the day:

2 saws do 90% of my firewood processing

Stihl 066
Husqvarna 44

My 046. We don't cut soft wood, only oak. Dead oak. Hard oak. Very hard. Got a 20 and 28 skip tooth. Favorite would be the 026s if the trees weren't so big.

That are currently running would have to be my 272 XP, enough power to buck but not too heavy to limb if need be. However, I am working on a 257/262 XP conversion that may alter that opinion.

Probably the Craftsman 3.7 thin ring with a mild port job and muff mod I bought from ModifiedMark with a 20" bar/chain. With the work done to it it's about mid 60's cc's. Great firewood saw and a non Husky/Stihl contribution to the conversation

2159 EHP with 20" bar

My goto saw is my Husky 2101. I pretty much use it for everything, cutting firewood, trimming the tree in the backyard, roughed in a window in the garage, even cut my shower bath combo into 3rds when I remodeled my bathroom a couple years ago. I couldn't get the damn thing out in one piece and my sawzall was too slow!

I'll see how long it lasts, my Husky 61 with a 32" bar is the ticket for cutting a fir tree that fell across one of my access roads.





Bored, stroked, ported, and piped... don't let the old gray top fool you

Lately, a non-runner would be fine.

 

[Coldfront]

Right now my muffler modded 359 Etech is my go to saw, I find I only am using my 372xp on really big wood now.

I should get one uploaded tomorrow

 

[Fishnuts2]

All around use for me would be my 359. Wishing it was a 357xp though.
