Anyone using Forester Bars? New Featherlite...

18" just a hair over 1 1/2 pounds.
That's pretty light!
I have the identical match Tsumura but too lazy to pull it off the saw @ the moment. Lol

It would be interesting to see how the weights compare.

I knew somebody was gonna say that!
Prolly tomorrow.
Rough day on the farm today & I'm afraid my recliner will fly off if I get out of it.

I've been worn out after a days work.
Screw it, it's my thread! Lol

Never tried the feather lights. I've been running the platinum bars on several saws. Probably 60 pulp per 3 bars no complaints other then the clear coat. On my second and 3rd bar I used 2k clear coat before use
Those still look new with same use as the first bar but lookway used without the extra clear.

Where do you get the clear coat?

I ordered a 16" one that arrived on Wednesday. It was less than $40 delivered. I used the bar this morning. It seems like a decent bar fo the money.

Cool.
I'm thinking about picking up a 16" for my Shindaiwa 488.

They are gonna sell a lot of these if they get in the 3/8 size market.

Which Redmax saw is that? I have the GZ 4000 and really like it, but I use 3/8" lo pro on it. I think the .325 might be a bit much for it.

Seems like for the moment Featherlite bars only come in .325.

It's a GZ 4350. I have two ported ones, they are awesome little saws!

I might would go for a 16" one as I have plenty of 18" k095 bars. Did you get on ebay?

Sorry, I don't know how to copy and paste. I had my son do it for me, he must of f*cked it up. Just go to the forestershop website and look under featherweight bars.

Comes to $42.45 delivered. I'll think on it a bit and try to tell myself I really don't need it. That's a battle I often lose. I usually end up waking up in the middle of the night, going to the bathroom with my phone and ordering stuff I've been talking myself out of.

For you Poulan 041 mount guys, I ran across these Windsor 20" .325 .058 bars.
I put one on my watch list, & the seller offered me one for $21.99 free shipping.
Can't beat the price.
