Old School Saws

[Crocky]

I’ve been sourcing and selling older saws for a couple of years now. I recently managed to come across some I didn’t think I ever would.

On a related note, interested to know how people rate the MS361 vs more modern alternatives. I recently bought a brand new one overseas because I’m a stickler for simple, proven technology - shrewd move or am I missing out..?!

I have 3 of these available. 

I also have a 353 that I’ll be converting into a 346xp. Genuine top end etc. 

 

Other models also available

It just depends what you prefer. I don’t think you’re missing out.

Maybe I should get you to do one in black for me to go with the 572 you did for me 😊

I think the newer saws get some bad feedback sometimes for having electronic carbs when actually they’re a great feature. The majority of issues are still down to basic things on the saw rather than the carbs. It’s the dealers that are at fault when they just want to throw a carb at it and don’t actually check the saw over properly. I’ve seen it too many times. 
 

Mtronic and Autotune have come a long way. I like how they will adapt to port work. It’s pretty impressive. 
 

There’s something to be said about old school saws that have more grunt and a different power. 
 

It’s all preference.

Yes / no / no / maybe / no / no

I can get CS1201s 👍

 

I can also get 070s and I have a lead on genuine 090 cylinders. So can be converted. Just needs a clutch, which I have.
