$1000 to spend on a new saw.

Hehe, is better sideways balance responsible for 350's always being on their side?

It's not just the 350s...

Nope most huskies get tired and lay down on the job

Not so tired version of a Husky. And just slightly more than your $1k budget after the massaging was done. Think I'm really going to like this autotune stuff.

Yea , don’t think you’ll be disappointed,

 

[Crocky28]

I have new 372xp OEs available for $875 shipped and 272xps available for $900 shipped.

 

[Woodslasher]

Wow, it's been 7 hours and @Kiwioilboiler hasn't called me out on a 346 pic. Are you feeling okay Adam?

 

[Woodslasher]

Twas a jest sir, one of these saws is not like the other. Davidwyby brought a rebadged 346 up to run with my 350 and I was curious if anyone would notice the discrepancy.

Dang it, I should recognize which saw I sent to David to rebuild into a 346 screamer from the sausage porter

Ended up placing the order for the Redmax GZ7100 this evening. I think I’ll enjoy & appreciate this saw.
Should have plenty enough power for my wood’s cutting land clearing tasks.
Wouldn’t mind getting a light bar & some husqvarna flip up fuel caps.

Isn't the
RedMax GZ7100 the same as the
Husqvarna 372 and the
Jonsred CS2172 ?

Yup. Pretty much is.

 

[Duce]

Yup. Pretty much is.

Yup, 372x-torq version. It looks more like a J-red 2171, hope he did not pay over $875 for it. That 372oe ported is a different saw and Bruce is selling 372's for $880. But, than again he did not ask me for money, so he can purchase what he wants. Enjoy your new saw.

HL Supply sale is still on, and you cant beat his shipping Daytona to Iowa 24.95!

That's not a good answer. Sounds like they have a oress copy to read from. I was thinking/hoping they would go into more depth.

I followed up with STIHL and no response. They sent a survey for the open ticket and I described the issue with their service, this isn't dead. I might hammer this one back to Germany.

Received the Redmax GZ7100 today, factory bar is .058 24” . My question is, can I install a.050 gauge bar or will that require a rear sprocket change as well?

Have access to a Tsumura 050 3/8” 84dl 24” bar & would prefer to run husqvarna x cut .050 chain.

Yes, you can install .050 bar.
Sprockets are not gauge specific.

They do make that chain in .058

thanks guys. Can't wait until Saturday to run a few tanks of fuel and break in the new saw. I started it up and let it idle about ten minutes this evening, ran out of daylight.
