see I'd be all over that ****.....just moved my buddy into his house this weekend......gonna buy a chainsaw soon......he has a lot of trees that need to be taken down.......and a fire place so I'll get to split wood too!!

 

any man that can not figure out how to patch drywall deserves what he got.....my brothers and I have repairing holes we put in the walls since we were 10......

 

ive only had to do it once. one of my friends put another one of my friends head through the wall

 

with three brothers and only 5 years between the youngest and oldest......that happened every other day.......I was raised by wolves

 

Hey Jason......speaking of buying a chainsaw......you have any recommendations?? I know I want a gas powered one obviously, no electric.......but blade size/manufacturer/etc.....

 

Mike....FYI check my wall.......3 achievements.......allied with yakuza.......allied with triad......allied with both at the same time......I'm at 1415 with each and have access to the full faction store!!

 

just look for "made in china" and then pick a different one. or go in there and think "what would mel lentz do?"

 

nice. im at 1500 with one and 1499 with the other

 

I really like my STIHL chainsaw. I have the MS 391 model. According to MikeM though my wrists are too limp and gay to actually use it.

 

Yeah I was looking at home depot and wasn't sure about the echo or homelite, but I do like this poulan pro:

Yes stihl is probably one of the best ones out there but I assume they are also spendy......I'm gonna check the loews site......

 

will it not allow you to level the other to 1500? I haven't done any jobs in bangkok yet......I got where i am by just fighting in bangkok for the past few weeks.

 

ehh the reviews on this one were not great actually......people seem to have trouble starting it and keeping it running......but that's generally the nature of chainsaws.......the echo has great reviews but for twice the $$

 

I have a Stihl 025. It's about perfect for a home owner. Same as the MS250. (http://www.stihlusa.com/chainsaws/MS250.html) My father had a couple of old Poulans that have seen hundreds of cord of wood. I'm not sure they're the same as the Home Depot ones though. For occasional use, an echo, homelite, or Poulan should be fine. If you're looking for cheap, go to a big box store. If you want quality, check out a power equipment dealer.

 

I'm looking for right in between and think the echo will do......the poulan got awful reviews and is not what I expected from them.....it's only 159.99 at home depot and $10 more at loews......reviews were bad on both sites......The echo is the same basic thing, $299, and got excellent reviews......that's about as much as I'm willing to spend.

 

I just did a little research and the two my father has are Partner saws. Which became Poulan and then Poulan pro. The Partners were a commercial use saw and with each name change have moved towards the home use market. The current Poulan saws have nothing in common with the old Partner saws.

 

The stihl MS250 is only about $320. The only thing with Stihl saws is you have to use their chains, or ones made for Stihls. They don't swap with other manufacturers. I'd check with a power equipment dealer. You should be able to get into a decent saw for $300.

 

I can't find a bad review on the Stihl MS250.

 

thanks for the advice I'll keep looking around......

 

i did it all by fighting, not by jobs. when you gain in one, you lose 50% in the other. so i dont think its actually possibly to get both to 1500 at the same time

 

I have a little homelite saw from the 1980s. You can borrow it for a long time if you want, since i only have 3 trees.
