mid-range saw for groundwork

I have a new 365 xtorq with a 24" bar and that flys through poplar and woks really well with the small log mill from alaskan mill. Would definitely get another one. You should get Both 365 and mill for under your budget

No-one going to suggest a 576XP?! Love mine...

 

Plus 1. Was ringing up 3ft beech with mine yesterday. Using a 26" bar and now seriously thinking of running bigger on it.

I guess the 372 is the cheaper option though.

HI STUBBY sorry mate :thumbup1:jon

HI SSC hodge has a re maped one im told he loves it :thumbup1:jon

 

Mine's still original and still incredible! God only knows what a re-mapped one is like. Hodge does, too, by the sounds of it... ;-)

My 372 is spud ported and would at least hold its own against a heavy 576 . Probably quicker ....Is that fighting talk ??

Biggest difference - other than AutoTune for folks like me who want to just get on with things - is the vibration. Fuel consumption, power, weight etc. pretty well identical for the two.

 

Wonder how the 576 would cope after Spud had done his stuff? As I said to Jon Mendi-Plogs, when it eventually needs serious work (it's never missed a beat so far) I think I'll send it that way...

I did have the earlier version , the 575 and did not like it much . Sold it and got another 372 . I'm sure the 576 is better than the 575 but its kinda put me off them .

Mine was the last of the standard ones before autotune. I can't imagine what it would be like after Spud has played with it.

372, 576 or 390, take your pick, the 372 is the cheapest, and will do the job, but you're limited with the mill, poplar is soft, but if you move onto oak, you'll need bigger and more power
