  2. agree with that company i was working for doing a bit of forestry,bought 5 brand new 261s and they did feel very cheap and poor build quality,must admit they did cut ok...:thumbup1:until the needle bearings kept going:thumbdown:[plastic case] think 346 is far better quality saw:thumbup: not a bias opinion i use both still and husky when i work with the council they only use stihl [everything] and i use their 260 and i think its a better quality built saw than the new 261
  3. done a tree for a local care home,took almost a month to pay:001_huh: give them a few calls asking for payment,the response was the normal speel,we pay contractors on a certain day of the month,blah,blah. well that day came and went,in the end phoned head office and said everyday that goes by i will be adding £10 interest,had the cheque next day
