  1. Hi Bill, got a couple of decent trees that need to come down around 18" at the base but the majority of the work will be maintenance in a 10 year old wood so around 12" diameter. I saw some of the echo saws but didn't know anything about them, likewise dolmar not seen them.
  2. Afternoon everyone, going to do one of those which is best posts everyone loves so much. So I've got £400 to spend on a saw that will need to do pretty much everything. After some prompting I was looking at the Stihl ms271 but on reading some (old) discussion here about Husqvarna 346 or 550 thought I'd ask the experts. It will need to do some felling, maintenance work in a 10 acre woodland we have, mostly logging, general farm work and of course get dragged into chopping up anything over 3 or 4" diameter. As with most farm tools it'll spend the vast majority of its life in a shed and then be expected to start first pull. So there you go, I've probably committed some horrible chainsaw etiquette fopar so please forgive me but all advice gratefully received. Cheers
