What older saw do you like to use?

[DeckSetter]

What older saw is in your lineup? Either regular or occasional use. What older saw do you like to run and why do you like it?


I cut up an ash tree with my 032aveq today, and really enjoyed it. It's a heavy old thing, but torquey.

Jonsereds 49SP. Run it now and then and still enjoy it. A cutting beast for its size. Little heavy but a nice runner.

I enjoy running my Jonsereds 70e, not sure the exact year but at least 35 years old. My dad bought it new and gave it to me about 5 years ago. Love that old tank!!

Ever since I started repairing old saws I really enjoy using them. I like my Pioneer P41, Husqvarna 44 Rancher Practica, Craftsman 3.7 (grey and black), and even the little Super 2s. I like how the older saws don't bog down and the little Super 2s are so light. And the sounds these saws make.

I enjoyed my 075 when I had it. Had a Mac 10-10 that was nice to run, also.

I would like to get a good looking, runs great 032 sometime to have around for those leisurely cutting days.

026`s and 044`s, not real old but not up there with the spring type AV and Mtronic controlled strato carbs but I can tune them the way I want them.

Stihl 038M. It was my first saw. I bought it in the 80's and it's still with me.
Not the lightest or fastest but it'll do anything a newer saw will do.

Ditto the above, 038 Mag

I enjoy busting out a husky 2100...first large saw I ever purchased, and was hooked the first time I used it!!

 

[pioneer saws]

Homelite 1050 super, an animal of a saw, 32inch bar with .404.

Yup, I'll take an old style saw any day over the new electronic crap. my 026 and 034 are easy to work on and are very reliable. Never had them not start. The same can be said for my newer MS461... its an old saw in new clothing, love everything about it. I will be sad when they Electronisize the new version of it......

 

[twinstaged]

Not that old but I love my 028 super.

L65, Super EZ, and Mac 2-10.

 

[Cease232]

Stihl 076 and 090, jonsereds 90 and 66e. Heavy old beasts but fun to get out and throw some chips occasionally.

Homelite XL1. First choice as an all around saw, light and powerful.

 

[ChoppyChoppy]

XL12, Husqy 480, ProMac 610

 

[wood4heat]

024 Woodboss if that counts as "older". It just seems like a neat little saw to me. Rips through the small stuff and has rock solid construction. It has a pro quality feel in a nimble compact package.

Tanaka ecv3800, Zenoah G5000, Oleo Mac 962.

actually if I think about it, all my saws are old design stuff...
