Hi all,
I had such great advice on my first post deciding which saws to keep and which to sell...I kept them all, Hahaha.
Anyway, another 288 xp high top fell in my lap(yes, now I have 2). It's in nice shape cosmetically but has a cracked gas tank which I plan to swap out.
So I it got me wondering, what is the ideal bar and chain for this saw. Mainly the use would be for odd felling and bucking duties, average tree 20-24" with a max 30-36" range, all softwoods.
I was thinking 28" bar and don't know what chain configuration would be best.
What are you guys using?
