I have 'misplaced' my chain breaker/riveter, so had to get the guys at Terrain make me up a 36 inch and 42 inch chain for this job.
The 42 inch was just a tad short, but got the job done anyway:thumbsup:

Does this count?
yeah I guess it does...thats 2nd time Ive seen picture of one... for pruning I guess??
A mate of mine has one of those baby pruning saws, it really kicks arse. Perfect for pruning in the orchard. I've seen him cut 4 inch thick branches with it and it rips through it no worries.
From memory a new chain is about $16ish
My son bought me one last xmas and it's great.
I have one for stealth track maintenance and it's awesome. One handed fits in your pack, but light duty only - it's plastic and the battery is tiny. But it's more capable than I thought and ideal for the little jobs - the proper saws stay in the shed more now. Don't get one expecting to cut firewood tho.
The gomtaro with 300 mm curved blade is faster with less effort than the straight blades too
Got the folding Silky - think it's the F180? Brilliant little saw on wood - bones fark it near instantly though...
Don’t drop them on your leg, 11 identical perfectly spaced cuts all competing to turn your sock red :) (don’t ask :) )

My chainsaw team - well, the wee GTA 26 is officially my wife's tool. It kicks arse and a lot of fun too.
The 230 I got brand new for a really good deal about 18 months ago. It gets used on an almost weekly basis around my block. Love it.
The older 390 only come out for the bigger stuff. Use to be my only saw but only gets used a few times year now when we drop a bigger tree.
Any body running a Stihl 400?
I think that the fitment for the 400i is the same as the usual 3003 series for those size saws, if so the part number is 3003 000 9413. I have one here which I use on the 361. It goes OK but I use the 18 and 20" bars more as they are just better in terms of reach down when you are standing. Having said that, chain speed is wicked haha.
This is the manual snip for bar size so I think they are the same bars. Whether you can get one in NZ at the mo...?

I am not sure what they sell them with, I just buy the powerhead and use sugihara bar's. I have a 16" on mine.
I rate the 400 over the 462 because of how light and well balanced it is, as well as how torqey the engine is. The 462 is a great saw but dosnt fit well between the 400 and the 500i in my experiance.
Here is a size comparison.
From the bottom:
Husky 445
Stihl 400c looks like an Oregon bar on it
Stihl 441
Stihl 500i
Stihl 660
The 500i is to heavy for what you get, its to close to a new 661 to warrent using it for what I do. The 441 was a good saw but we always had problems with the m-tronic system leaning them out and roasting the rings.Thankfully they would always seem to die under warranty, if you got a good one they were a nice unit.
The 400 really impresses me.
Cheers. Impressive line up .
I love my 441, it’s a really versatile saw. Must have got a good one, as I bought it new and it’s done a full year waste thinning and multiple jobs over the last few years without a single issue. I use it over my 660 unless the tree is really big. Would love a 500 but don’t use saws enough these days to justify it

Looks like Mac??
Should be a few board feet in that!
I only have a little Poulan Micro XXV from the 70s.
Ah righto that works!
One of these down a day is more than enough effort. Especially when you have to cut steps in the trunk to climb high enough to make the directional cuts

The Nissan gives you some idea of their size:o

Used up all my wedges (a dozen) to prevent it falling into the neighbours... and still it no fall down.
The dozer redeemed itself by pulling it down with relative ease:thumbsup:
You will need a bit for next forum get together bonfire

We only need enough kindling for a medium sized bonfire...not a thermonuclear blaze seen from the space station!
Besides, these are over a k away from the burn pit. Asking a wee bit much of the dozer to drag them that far:XD:
Hey-soos - that's what you call a tree...
