I really want to port mine. If its gonna get better with a bit of running in I'm looking forward to using it a lot. Has plenty guts for 5" cuts but wouldn't suit anything more. Tried it today but it can't keep the speed up.

nonsense, this beech was done in its entirety with a 150 and 10 inch bar, :thumbup1:

Nice :thumbup:

 

I read my post again it comes across wrong to how it was in my head. It's still got plenty power for its size but cutting full bar depth it struggles a bit. Mines on a 12". I see this saw replacing the silky for 90% of work. It's so easy to use!

Might just do that. It's nice on a 12 so I would think its much better. Will price one up. Bent the chain on mine. It's been readjusted and works alright now but I can't tell if I've put a slight curve on the bar too. Not something I imagined doing 2 hours into use!

Young vandals, brute force and ignorance is not the way of the 150!:lol:

It was bad luck. Step cut snagged the chain as it went and I couldn't get it free in time. My Heart sank when I realised what had happened!

Got mine last week. Very lightweight and will come in handy with smaller branches/ conifer etc. Much less strain on my forearms / elbows which are causing me a bit of jip at the mo! Almost feels like you're holding a toy saw but has enough power to do the small stuff.
