    I'de forgot about my Solo. This is the 681 . It flat screamed with this 16" bar on it. . Kinda hard on my back from all the bending over tho. But, it did fit in the rack on my snow go. And it would start and run pretty good. . With an 8 tooth 3/8 s I had seemingly no end to the chain speed...

    :thumbup: nice looking setup. . An Alpine sure was a work horse of a sled. Any one that has one around here keeps them. The only places we have birch here in the Copper Basin is steep and broken up. Because we have had lots of beattle kill here DNR Forestry wanted all the standing dead and...

    Its so warm this winter. Its weird. But, it has been allowing me to do firewood at a more leisurely pace. But I still want a new little saw :-)

    Thanks. I just do firewood small scale now. Mostly my own and maybe 10 more cord a year for friends. Its actually a lot of fun not having the pressure to maximize production for profit.

    For this size wood a 241 Stihl or 543Husky would be perfect With all the snow and hoar frost I would have to walk around with a 12' log dead spruce pole and bang the trees to see if they were dead or not. Customers got kind cranky if they got much green wood. It made for an extra hard day and...

    Wow. Husky has a redirect air kit. I asked dealers about something like that and they looked at me like a Jersey cow. Clue less. I'm gonna start buying my saws in Canada. Your 372 prolly has heated handles also. I think The Woodway in FAIRBANKS sells those tongs. I'm gonna get 1 . One...
