I just don't see the point in having more than 3 saws. 

I think you need to sit down and have a damn good look at yourself. 😂

Hahahaha I know. 
 

I reckon when the time comes to part with them I'll probably say nah F it I'll keep them haha. Apart from the 562 that can rot in hell

I can confirm, a Crocky ported 572 is flipping sensational! And he has also done my 550 MK2 and my 390, which is equally as breathtaking to use 😎💪🏻

I only use chainsaws in my business ,and I would say you need at least 1 spare saw at any moment with you, and another one in the shed . I think 572 is very good saw ,just keep it no point to loose half the money.

Absolutely. Lost count of the amount of gardeners that come in with a poorly machine and ask how long it will take for a repair....which for us is normally a fortnight most time of the year. Which is quickly followed by 'jeez....I need it quicker than that, I've got a job on Friday'

 

'Sorry, best I can do is maybe a week..and that's if we don't need to order parts in. Have you got another machine you can use?'

 

'No mate......I can't afford two of everything- haven't you got a machine I can borrow?'

 

'No, we don't lend machines out. What's the job worth to you on Friday then?'

 

'About 500 quid'

 

'but for £500 you could have a spare machine, and in future you wouldn't lose a job if your main machine is in for repair'

 

' I can't afford that'

 

'....but you can afford to lose £500 on just ONE job though?'

 

*silence*

To be fair I've two brashing saws, an old 261 and a 562. And two felling saws 572 and 585 and will keep the 85 forever as I love it.
