For real?

 

Christ you are knackered!

 

Been thinking about it and one handing certainly seems to be a big factor with the elbows. As does carrying a log under each arm.

I got a Stihl MS261c last year...bloody awful saw. Its great when it actually gets going...but its a pig to start, whatever we do with it.

 

My 261c starts beautifully ……. love it to bits…….

Easy mate.

The 6100 has a negative sign in front of it, making the 560 5540 better.

 

God, my maths teacher was fit.

Or you could just buy the 560xpg and be done with it as it will wipe the floor against the others on that list if your cutting for productivity.

Wouldn't wipe the floor with the 156 or 162 efco

Interesting old thread. 
If anything the big 2 have tightened their stranglehold on the saw market. Despite a lot of the talk from 11 years ago. 
Only the echo 2511 gets a place on the trucks of pros.  
Battery saws may well change that though.

I bought a second hand Efco several years back just as a stop gap as Spud was porting my 346 . It was ok actually , better than I expected but not that good !  Sold it a few weeks later for a bit more than I paid for it so in that respect it was " that " good ! 🙂

Not sure on that bud, 162 and 156 are great saws. Always found the 346 a bit flat, it'd scream the knackers off but not do much .

What model was the efco you brought ?

Dunnow , long time back . All I remember was it was a 50cc saw . It was ok but not a patch on a ported 346 . It pulls a 15" bar , full chiz chain driven by an 8 pin rim . Very different to a standard 346 .
