Inexpensive solution to run 25" bar?

[WorcsWuss]

If I was buying new it would be a 441 or 460!

Agree about being wary of saws on eBay, have been offered something by an AT member though which I trust infinitely more!

Stihl 056 runs a 36" bar with little trouble, old and heavy, but NO plastic.

Finding one would be a challenge...?

How about a Makita DCS 7900 or 7901.

DCS = Dolmar Chain Saw and the Yanks rave about the Dolmar version.

 

My one pulls a 25" really well, Fast, Smooth and much cheaper than the =Husky or Stihl.

Reckon you need to turn your camera to daylight setting rather than indoor as the pic has a blue hue about it:thumbup:

Is that just a 3003 fitment Stihl bar?

I guess so! It has a slightly modified Husky bar adaptor fitted.

 

IMO Stihl bars seem to last longest........

 

 

Hmm blue tint lol the pics were done with a phone a while ago!

I did have a search for a Dolmar but drew a blank, Makitas are a bit new hence I think a bit out of my price range...
