Cure? Doubtful Contagious? I do believe so (you all passed it on to me I think) Fatal? Definitely not. All kidding aside, the physical exercise is obviously good for ya, I know without it, I feel crappy too. Plus, being out in the woods with a saw(s) is all the therapy I will ever need (I...

Me too! I've dropped exactly one that size before in my life. Nervous would be an understatement (scared more like it). Nice job tho brother-looks picture perfect to my untrained eye!

There's a good thread on this exact subject over at chainsawrepair. Gimme a sec and I'll try to find it....

I'm with moobs. Unfortunately I only get the chance to run equipment when I rent which is usually a few times a year for projects on my property. My favorite has become the Cat 259D. Man what a useful/versatile piece of equipment. Love that thing! Not to derail but it's also pretty amazing for...

mostly 18" but sometimes 20 and 24 on my 562 16 once and a while for fun

Got my bar today. Thx Sondre! Great seller, y'all-highly recommended! Jon

Popularity wise, I guess I don't disagree per se. Performance wise, well, I do.
