Dolmar

[shavey]

i got me a dolly ps 3410 which is like a backhandle ms200 essentially. light at 3.5kg, pricey 1/4 sprockets (think it was £30-40) but great. i dropped it out the back of my truck the other day and it didn't break which is always nice.

 

have only used it for maybe 2 weeks solid carving so can't give a really honest review yet, but seems to be going very well. running a cannon 14'' which i already had, this was on a ms170 or 010 before and fitted it fine. suspect you'd get a sugi for it no bother.

 

 

i have your 1/4 spur sprocket here :thumbup:

spot on, pm sent!

used an ea3501/3500 F tother day for carving. dead pokey for cc's. can you get the dolmar versions whatever the model is? how much? and are dolmar making their own carving bars or are they oregon ones? and can you get 1/4 sprocket nose dolmar bars that run the 1.1mm chain?

 

thanks

also is there seems to be some home user models and pro ones of the 3500 series on the makita range?

here are some photos of the PS-350sc this is the smallest of the pro saws it uses the same chassis and parts as the nippy PS-420sc

i will find out if they do a bar i might just test the sprocket and bar from the ps-3410

and see if there the same

this is a saw that could suit your requirements paul in the woods :thumbup:

don't know if this will work here is some pics of the dreamy little 3410 with 14'' bar. 4.6kg with fuel and bar.

 

i would seriously reccomend getting a pro carving saw if you possibly can (don't know if ps32 is? but suspect its home user.)

 

lighter, 35cc, potentially more durable and not much more cost.

 

 

Rob D this was the other dolmar i was talking about that Bill Pierce kindly posted on this thread :thumbup:

i found out this week that the PS-32c is being used for carving they use a 12'' 1/4 oregon sculptor bar and weighs 4.1kg without bar and chain

That looks a very good set up Bill

 

Rob D this is one that lodes the job perfectly
