This one is called the family Center in Farmington mo.
Every stihl saw,even 2 880's in one Isle,turn the corner and there's all the huskys up to a 395xp.

There's another stihl dealor less than a mile away in a big farm store that sells all the equipment but no parts.
You can buy a 1200$ 661 there but not a spark plug for it. I remember when stihl marketed there saws saying every dealership had licensed stihl techs,evidently that ain't the case anymore.
The stihl/husky dealor that does have "parts" is Rediculous, I spent a good 10 min trying to explain to the "tech" that I needed a sprocket,clutch,the plastic bearing behind the clip at the sprocket.
After a while he said he knew what I needed so he looks up a number and goes to get it,comes back and hands me the thin flywheel side crank bearing and says, looks like it's going to be 7$ and I said I'll take it. Lol

When i was in montana a farm supply place i stopped at had stihl saws ,but no service dept or parts ,i thought that was odd also .

I've yet to locate my 404 chain links to put a really long chain together.

All I kneaded was 2 and I finally found them. I don't put much 404 together

Nothing bends or breaks I'm gonna this morning.
Got 4 more saws finished that need ran that I'm getting bars and chains on.
Takes a lot of time to get a bunch of saws ready and tuned and sharp and then find enough wood to run them in.
Put a tank through each one takes a mountain of wood,do it for years and you have nothing left to cut.
I love breaking saws in but the constant need for wood Is a pia,I'm working on having some bigger wood dropped off but until then I'll have to see if the 064/056 can noodle with a 50" 404 with full comp. Lol

Can't noodle pine,your iron wood will noodle better than it.

 

[Brewz]

I dont know about better..... just slower

 

[Brewz]

I was going to say.... with all your logging contacts surely you can get some logs dumped.
I am finding I am exhausting my small supply of timber testing so I can only imagine your issues!

 

[jmssaws]

You can't clear chips cutting pine,for noodling the Hardee the better.

I can get lots of wood dropped off but 20" would be a big one.
Only 36" trees here are in the middle of a feild or in a yard.
