I’m not too active in here but my vote would be under the Events section with a blurb added the description of Events so folks have a chance to see it.

I’m in too. I hope health and business improves soon.

HL Supply? Forum sponsor/owner.

Nice work!

Thanks, I’ll let you know what I end up doing. Dealer in MN has plenty of echo 4910 for $360 and also a used Husqvarna 550xp and a used 545 (both original generation, not sure year) for 350. Decisions. I was pretty impressed with the CS-4910 for the price. Had nice balance with the 18” bar...

How much?

Thanks for the ideas. To clarify: I'm just a homeowner that has become a bit of a saw enthusiast, I used to live 15 miles from my childhood home where my mom still lives. Over 10 acres of woods there, bordering the entire home/lawn area. In the last five years of my dad's life it really took...

Thanks for the advice and ideas. I’ll keep scanning the for sale section here and perhaps also Craigslist/FB Marketplace since the ice storm here. I’m sure there must be some people that bought a saw just for storm cleanup. I’m leaning toward just grabbing a new Echo from Bruce. @Matt...

Hello, I moved to TN last summer and I’m currently without a saw here. I only have a few tress on my property but if one of them decides to fall over in an ice storm, I’ll be quite unprepared. I have a couple saws in MN that I left at my moms house since there is plenty of cutting to be...

Well, in case anyone is wondering what happened; the friend of mine got a 550 mkii with a 20” of .325 around a Tsumara light bar. I imagine it will work well for him. Thanks for the advice. How’ve the 60cc saws been running for you guys? @BK13 have you been working in the cold lately?

There is an 592XPG version available I believe. If it’s like 572XPG it will have a thermostatically controlled electric heating plate next to the carb.

My dad got me a used Husqvarna 136 when I was 15 or 16. Cleared trails in the woods with it. Many years later I loaned it to my father in law who dropped it off for a “friend” to fix it. The guy kept it and when asked denied any knowledge of the saw. Not much value in terms of dollars but...

If flying is an option for her: If anyone on here works for the passenger airlines (I don’t anymore) they may have a buddy pass or other option to get her a very low fare. It would be standby/space available but depending on her circumstances could perhaps work.

Thanks Ray.

572XP Workshop Manual? If it has been posted here already I’m apparently bad at searching.
