First Set Up

looking to buy a couple of saws to start out a bit of private work. was thinking Stihl as used huskys and they have all been temperamental compared to Stihls... Thinking 201T for up the tree and a MS 362 as an all round ground saw. haven't used a 362 yet anyone got any views?... are they too heavy etc for all day use on the ground compared to a 261? Thanks

The 362 vs 261? two different size saws. Asfar as being too heavy for use all day, that would depend upon how strong and fit you are? I use a 460 all day in the forest and thats even bigger again. I would go for the bigger saw and purchase a couple of bars to deal with different lengths. perhaps a 13" and a 18/20" that way you have versatility.

Hope that helps?

cheers for that....was swaying towards bigger saw and a couple of bars so its good for everything...don't think the extra weight will be to much of a problem!
