Hi

 

Id get a 135 over a 236, the 135s engine is 40.9 cc so slightly larger than 236 & if you keep your chain sharp it should cut fine but dont expect it to tear through on 12" dia logs.

 

You might like to consider running it on Aspen or Husky Power 2 which Im told is the same stuff.

 

I take it part of your budget will be for chaps, helmet & gloves - which to be honest decent leather ones are fine but you may have a preference.

 

If you have a bit more cash then take a look at a Dolmar 420 its a cracking little saw & much better built than any of the small 'homeowner' type saws & at a decent price, may be worth thinking about if you have a sizeable quantity of logs to cut.

I regularly cut 12" with my 135 and it never struggles as long as you don't let it pinch. That's on a 14" bar.

I have a Husky 440e . A 40cc model .I cut dry oak logs for my fires at home.

Bought it in 2009 in UK as cheaper than here in France.

My logs may not be as large as yours , but I cut every week, and will go through 12+ cu meters this season.

 

Bigger is better !!
