Thread: show us your chainsaws

I fitted a set of slim matching dogs the same length as the factory single dog (they are an order in from Stihl not a stocked item). Sorted that out, and stopped the issue of the saw pulling against the alloy of the clutch cover when cutting through the crutch of an avo or the like. Didn't seem to do the same when the solid bar was on it, and to be fair the weight difference on a saw that size was barely noticeable. Looked a bit stupid I thought with the full size dog pair on it, the dog spikes looked half the length of the bar on such a small saw!!!

I'm running a standard 20 inch on my 362 and don't feel the need to go light on that.
Mind you it would be really light with a light bar on it!
I'm thinking I might move on my 880 as getting to bloody heavy for me to lug around.
Not even a light bar could help that beast.
Replace with the 900! When it turns up.
It might even get 7mmsaum to change brands!
