1 Saw Plan

[XP_Slinger]

I'm curious what you guys will say. Dificult as it may be, let's pretend for a moment CAD doesn't exist and you have to narrow it down to 1 saw; What would you keep for your 1 saw plan and why? Commercial production? Firewood? Giggle factor? Stock or modded doesn't matter. Pick your poison.

Gun to my head; I would keep my ported 357XP and send my other 2 (346 and 372) down the road. I'm a firewood guy and even when I get into wood over 20" my 357 just doesn't fail to impress me. And as a bonus, it's weight doesn't cause any fatigue whatsoever.

What say you? Share a video or pic of your favorite if you have it.

Plus ya cutting buddies give the stink eye to the home Depot pos. Till they hear the cackle

Nice! Sounds like a strong saw. Can't fault that plan

70cc of some sort. For about a year all I had was an 75cc 372 that was mine.

Ms361. It's my current 60cc saw. It will handle 95% of my cutting needs.

Tough to beat an XPW for an all around saw. That would be my choice for what i do if 357s didn't exist.

I'm with you, a strong 60cc class saw can do A LOT of work for some of us.

Assuming I couldn't get the drop on 'em, and the gun were to my head, I'd still tell 'em to piss off, and get off my lawn. But to answer the hypothetical question, 272xp. It can do most everything, including light milling, parts availability is excellent and affordable. One saw, ha-ha, just crazy.

Ha ha ha! I admire your dedication to CAD.

This is the pickle most folks are in. Guys like us are the exception not the rule. We are like golfers, picking a certain club for this or that. I would have to say ported 372XP. But heavens sake, I have a bunch of dead ash 10" dbh. Talk about overkill...
