    STIHL The Official Stihl Chainsaws Thread

    @FergusonTO35 No polish on the plastics. The cylinder shroud is new. It had a few splits and cracks. The pics make the plastic look better than it does in person. I have used salon 40 to whiten white plastic. With mixed results. I didn't go all out as I still plan to use the saw to make money.

    064, 066 MS650, MS660 info thread

    I knew the day would come when we would be having these conversations. Sad day for sure. I feel that the 1122 series saws were some of the best saws ever made. I have been stocking up on parts for a while. There is still a fair amount of supply. There is even some heated handle stuff if that...
