WHATS the best 3120 or ms880 thanks

[Peter]

I've used an 880 with a 4' up a tree once, and I struggled. It kept biting on the horizontals because of the bend. I've since learnt I would have been better starting the cuts with a smaller saw.

 

These days if I have to stick the 3' on the 660 I get a hot flush.

 

That Lombardy the other week was a beast Reg, never saw the base but that knuckle would have taken some cross-cutting.

 

I have used an 880 with a 48" and a 3120 with a 42" up a tree, on several occasions. (Not both at the same time though) Not something I'm keen to repeat anytime soon tbh.

 

If I have a really big stem to chog down with the 880, I usually start 5 or 6 cuts with a smaller saw, then slice them down. I usually find after 5 or 6 880 cuts its time for a brew anyway.

i prefer the 3120xp. but both are good mighty saws

Having used both I'd go for the 88.....
