Roble beech?

Don't think you need to go 560! A 550xp out performs a 357 all day long. Wish I never sold my 357 either.

They are a great saw and love mine. Think they would be a bit overkill on garden maintenance/cs31 type size. 550xp would be more than enough saw.

One of these, not mine and no I don't know the seller, just using it as an example https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/makita-Dolmar-EA7900-78cc-chainsaw-Made-in-Germany-its-a-Beast/232929269200?hash=item363baa95d0:g:63gAAOSweGxZdbY3

What stove fans do people use and are the cheaper ones quite quiet in operation?

I saw two lads in a car going down the M6 and the wipers on their car had broken and they had tied string between the wipers and string to each end and had a pulling sequence going on , bloody genius i think .
Must have been a top spec landrover they were in?

Got an old 550xp that you can use if it helps you out while you source something. Now and then it cuts out on idle until warm, but it still makes good power when up and running. A little anti social as the zorst is drilled. Think it could do with a reset or whatever. The offer is there.

Glad I could help Ken?

I do like your little videos. A one man system that works well for you? Letting your dog sleep under the raised pallet makes me a bit nervous though!!

Make sure the crank bearings are OK, it is three generations old!
Any way of knowing this when viewing a secondhand machine, knocking or piston slap?

A secondhand one might have done the odd hour then!

Does anyone know how far back in time these machines go please, can't seem to find manufacturing dates online.

Do you have cutters lined up, location?

I stopped wearing a wedding ring after the third one went through the chipper!
Assume your talking about third ring and not third wife that went through the chipper!! ??

241 is the only saw I regret selling on. Something else to consider maybe https://www.honeybros.com/Item/ECHO_CS-390ESX_Chainsaw

I know I'm too cheap and would like to charge more, but I've just built the sides up on my small log trailer to hold 1 loose cube and now charge £80, it was £70. If I suddenly go up to the sort of prices talked about on here, I think my customers might be a little grumpy! I don't pay for timber though.

Shocking!
I'm very glad I cancelled my order yesterday. I rung Fastfix Friday, pleasant chat and promised to get a call back with the info ..... Nothing. If neither wop nor Fastfix can do simple customer service to sell the saw I decided to cancel. Saturday morning I'll drive 4 miles to f r Jones and buy a husky 365 instead. Local dealer who is focused on customers is worth a great deal. I consider this a narrow escape.
If I'd just ordered the 365 back in June when I ordered the dolmakita, I'd have got 4 free chains,. Not now though....I tried asking jonesy, no, not their offer, husky offer 'while stocks last'. Still.... Amazon have the right 20" Oregon chain for £13.11, so it's not a disaster.
Shame, the 365 isn't a patch on the 7900. I won't be bothering sending mine off and I will deal with any issue if and when it happens.

Can't decide between 560xp or makita 6100.
