Believe me I'm both an idiot, and I still have plenty of saws to earn the moniker with. Lol

The 72cc Super is a nice running saw. Ive had a few Farm Boss's also over the yrs. Careful parts arent behind every tree for those older saws. They are however pretty easy to work on.

I dont use mine all that much cause of parts availability . probly only couple times a year on bigger stuff. It keeps up to the 038 mag pretty good and puls a 24" bar.

The Farm Boss at 64cc's is a stong saw also. Maybe not a fast saw but it gets the job done. It was actually my first Stihl I owned and cut firewood with. That was alot of Stihls ago. I have em written down, i should count and see. I know its over 100 maybe 150 by now. Bought 8 or 9 last wk. Dang CAD.

Beautiful restoration job. Truly a classic saw. Many were terribly abused by owners who gave them no respect. My Mac 610 Timber Bear might be able to stay with one, but it's never been proven.

I think they are great old saws. They have plenty of torque for sure
