Nice, downside being release date as it is coming to European countries fall of 2026. how long have they had the 400.1 which still has not made it to the USA.🤔

I still run a couple of my original 026s from the 90s along with a couple of modern non M/T 261s My dealer still has 261s for sale, perhaps time I order a couple of more just in case they are going away. 🤔 My boys run 261s in their tree care business as they came to the game a bit late for...

I luv mine have several. :thumbsup:

Agree, think stock was around 3.5oz and stwaight shot clone around 13.8oz so 10.3oz or 2.3ozs over a half pound. :eek: First thought is one of the reasons I bought the 500i because it was lighter than either my 572 or 592 so why am I adding over a half pound.:thinking: Second thought was adding...

I like both my 572 and bigger heavier 592 the 500i being a bit lighter than either I enjoy it more the longer the day is, massaged by a Chimpanzee adds a few bananas under the hood. :thumbsup:

Win the opportunity for doing a muffler repair or replacement. :thinking: I picked up an aftermarket muffler cover and after weighing it decided it might not be a good idea to add over a half pound of extra weight to the front of the mounting bolts. :eek: YMMV

15 saws from 25-120cc including 572 592 and two 500i's, does this mean I have a 90% chance I will pick up a 500i twice as often. :meparto: Math is hard. :thinking:

Thank you for providing links. I have seen some of the Turnbull work having interest in both SASS and NCOWS and done a few small pieces such as trigger guards and locksets, also have minor knowledge in the browning process putting together several BP rifle kits with a fleeting stint in the...

Interesting👍 I always thought of color case hardening as decorative in nature as relatively low heat surface and not structural annealing temperatures.:thinking:

Thank You! :thumbsup: Color me blue guess I envisioned the coloring penetrating deeper as the line is further back from the bar rail itself.

Perhaps my use of the natural finish bars was to general in nature. The Sugihara light and Huskie tough light bars as well as a Tsumaura light bars do not appear to have the blue heat coloring on the rails which raised the question are they heat treated or different process? did not think one...

What is the difference in bar rail hardness between a painted bar and a natural finish bar? Asking the same question in a different manner. :thinking: Why are the rails on a painted bar heat treated and not a natural finished bar?

MMWS sells new.

McDonalds or Wendy's :thinking:

Could be! I know of one firewood processor that is using automatic transmission fluid for the entire system including the bar oiler.
