im considering one next...not to sure why as i had like im sure every one else did a badly disapointing debut when they released there first climbing saw...it lasted 4 months before being chucked from a great height any way ive looked at the new 338 and ive been told the faults have been ironed out,its more powerfull, different carb and filter system the spark plug cover stays on and the bars stronger also the carb coller that always split has been redone

marine ply with a roof probably cheaper than ally and can be painted to match.....make them sturdy enough and it comes in handy for the tops of hedges. definietly get a roof if you chip every thing ...if your doing a lot of cross cutting and have not yet got a chipper dont as saw fumes cant escape!
