Thread: show us your chainsaws

Have begun the process of thinning our rapidly growing pine forest. The 6.6Ha of pines planted in 2017 need roughly 50% thinned now as the crowns are already deeply interlaced. Am getting about 20 trees to the tank of gas, as there can be quite a bit of faffing around when one gets hung up. Only 135 tanks of gas till this lot will be done


Have gone to the dark side and bought a 67cc Stihl. 2.5kgs lighter than my Husky 395's and almost as much boogy. Just keep it screaming, as it doesn't have the torque of the 95cc saws. That 2.5kgs certainly makes a difference at the end of the day.
