  23. it all depends on saws you use but also some people are more suseptible than others when we first tested our saws we had to get rid of some an old 2100 could only be used for 2 mins before damage could occure and a brand new 357 with a badly sharpened chain can only be used for 20mins so where you got your 8 hours flat out from must be cuckoo land
