So this is just something I was thinking about. I have always viewed saws as tools for a purpose so I only needed one for most of my life, I do cut wood for heating 5 to 10 cords a year never thought it was fun or anything. Fast forward to June of this year. I tool down 2 dead maple trees that were threatening my house. Broke out my trusty MS310 got the trees down no problem, went to buck them up the little saw wasn't happy this crap was rock hard at the top taking forever sharpening blah blah blah. So what do I do I find and old beat to piss 288xp finish the job way easier. I find out this poor thing is missing alot of parts and the cylinder is toast. So I rebuild the saw Holy crap this thing is awesome now now I'm looking for wood to cut up now because it's way more fun now. So now I've collected enough parts to build another or rebuild this one again
The problem is that's all I do now scour eBay and Craigslist for "deals". My wife thinks I'm nuts because I don't need another saw but I can't stop thinking about them. Granted I don't have a collection really just about 5 30cc to 87cc and I have turned a room in my house to the chainsaw parts room. Is this normal how could just getting and old pro saw do this. Honestly I don't know where this story is going just thought I would share.
