Only ever once Jon I was in the same position as Rod had a 660 but thought I needed an 880. Yes it's a beast of a saw but what a cumbersome beast it is all day cutting big 3ft plus stuff knowing that your going to spend the next week through a splitter. Not for me
-
Have you used an 880 all day?
-
Why do you want to give up firewood If I remember right you have a harvesting operating so thought it would be a good earner for you.?
-
I no what our customers would say and it would not be polite

We do sell soft wood but I've not pushed it got a load of scots pine and a load of larch that had been down ages the larch is good but the scots pine not so good.

It's a bit different if it's a full time thing. He is just doing it part time to see if it's for him.

To be honest if you have a 461 I would make do wit that and see how the next season pans out. The only way you will speed it up is a processor more coin. I've got white finger pretty bad from riding motor bikes in all weather and using big impact wrenches all day for a decade and I don't notice any difference in the vibes using the 660 over a 461/ 362 /261

Get a 660 I would go for an older one with the screw caps if you can find one I got a brand new 2009 model in early 2013. I'm in the yard now cutting up over size. We run outs on a 30 and tackle pretty much anything. 880 is a bit over kill for firewood IMO big old lump to be wielding it will make your arm ache.

I was browsing in there in the morning and saw the letters of the model with what I thought was a Honda engine I'm sure there Honda dealers I'll check and come back to you.

Alder and ash should be about the same for drying/ seasoning are the as logs bigger by any chance? -
I completely agree with you, my mrs went back to work after she had recovered from having our son after 12 weeks she had enough and packed it in. What's the secret to 20 years of breakfast in bed as I think that would pushing it a little bit for my other half
