need a small saw around 40cc, preferably old school

These are little rippers and I'm 99% sure your small mount husky bars will fit https://www.radmoretucker.co.uk/product/Makita-EA4300F45C-Petrol-Chainsaw-18

I've always wanted one of these

hey folks need a small pruning saw and as all my saws are Husqvarna i'd like to stick with the brand as I have spare bars, chains etc, initially thought about the 435. Unfortunately the only Husky dealer within driving range is a con artist:thumbdown: So thought i'd try the Echo dealer, £520 for a cs390:thumbdown: So now i'm thinking about a second hand Husky or Echo, any recommendations, or even better has anyone got a suitable saw lying around gathering dust?

 

The 435 is a cracking saw. You don't need to go to the dealer to collect like Stihl. Or the other option is to give Shavey a call and go for a dolmar

What about an echo 420es? Old design and bullet proof, mine has had nothing changed in four years. It's steady away, won't break any records but just works!

Dolmar 420

 

You can still buy 346xp in France, but exchange rate makes it somewhat expensive

how much roughly?

629 Euros so around £555 as the fx rates are fairly pants at the mo

 

If you search for Tronconneuse Thermique 346xp on the .fr versions of bing or google there may be some better offers

That's pretty exciting. After quick glance found some at 520 quids which is about same as a 550xp

Thanks for the advice guys, what are husky 240's like? Someone local selling one, says it has very little use and two new chains, he wants £120 for it?

Reckon they are a little over 200 quid new. Personally, I have found the bottom end hobby type saws from still and husky to be ok when running fine, fiddly to fix, and need fixing more often.
