Cheap low quality mail order chainsaws.

Cheap Chinese crap?

 

I would say their learning curve is very steep, give them a couple of years to improve what they are producing, as the song says "Things can only get better". :biggrin:

 

I know the car manufactures outside China are aware of the serious competition. Are the chain saw "big boys" upping their game?

 

If they can not stay ahead with innovation, then the higher prices will not be justified, or accepted.

 

All mass produced engines are now churned out by robot fed CNC machines, so it is only a matter of time before the tolerances are refined.

 

Would you buy a 560xp inspired copy that was perfect for say £100, I would say these days are not far off.

I think the Chinese get asked to make a saw for pence ..so they oblige . I recon if you gave them a bigger budget it would be a better saw ......

How much would a "Rand Rover 90" cost, when LandRover stop perhaps the Chinese will fill the gap in the utility 4x4 market.

Exactly my point, won't be long before container loads of better quality saws hit the markets.

 

Perhaps the Danarm brand should be bolstered, couple of million should do it. Quick visit to Beijing build a Husky- Stihl, evolution saw.

 

"Buy British, buy Danarm" I can visualise the union jack on the bar.:biggrin:
