how about a Oklahoma,AR,MO,KS,TX,+IA GTG thread?

[Hinerman]

You actually prefer the save edge files??
They hold up ok for you?

Yes, i give Save Edge the nod in durability, imo. I use the round files, not the square. I wouldn't throw any of them away. All are good files.

Which do you prefer?

 

[Workshop]

Personally, I like the ones that file the chain.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

I am trying some echo files. Seem good so far. Don't know who makes them.

Boxed up the 011. It's going back to Clinton, Arkansas.

I even put it back together. [emoji48]

Just an idea but what about the multi tool systems like Stihl Kombi or Echo PAS?

I just reread my post after spell check "fixed" it for me. It should have said I'm,a Stihl guy, not stink guy.lol Thanks for the idea but I really want that 10 or 11 foot telescoping type. I just want feedback from those of you who have used them. Happy friday!

Funny I have my phone auto correct trained to spell Stihlership when I go to type it lol. And I have no brand loyalty and Iam interested on what ya find and how you like it.

@KenJax Tree works for a company that uses some pole saws. IIRC he had mentioned Echo pole saws as being decent rigs. Ill let him correct me if I'm wrong.

Swiss made ones.

Swiss??
Or portugese?

 

[Time's Standing Stihl]

My choice, in order:

1-Save Edge
2-Stihl/Valorbe
3-Pferd

All good files

Everyone files differently and has different opinions. I would've said:

Valorbe
Pferd
Save edge

 

[67L36Driver]

My choice.

1: 'Nick the Grinder'
2: 'Nick the Grinder'
3: 'Nick the Grinder'

But, I don't burn wood, neither do I cut wood.

 

[cobey]

Put a center link on the olds, and gonna
Pack the bearings, hope she drives good,
I want to get to the funner stuff

 

[Hinerman]

Swiss made ones.

That would be Stihl/Valorbe. They are good for sure.

 

[Hedgerow]

For all I know, the same company might make em and sell em under multiple names.

They look good. I could feel it was a bit heavier than the similar sized Husqvarna. The 5 year warranty could be nice if they honor it. I've never warrantied a saw so I don't know.

 

[hoskvarna]

I like my husky 325 pole saw lots better than the stihl ht 101 that got melted.

The one saw I have actual use for is the HT75 I got from Matt.[emoji108]

Only downside is I have to get the son in law to run it extended out all the way.[emoji20]

I can't help it, snagged another Oly 264.[emoji12]

I wonder if I outbid Jerry.[emoji848]

 

[stihl livin]

@BrettL

If you go with the stihl kombi you can run 2 extensions if you need to reach that 11-12 foot mark. I do it on mine without any issues.
