Makita EA3601...the most intriguing saw to date

[CoreyB]

The blue Makita ea5600 over this side of the pond is around the $700 mark

Ouch! How much is the 6100?

This Oak was hard and Dry and not the cleanest it took the edge right of the chain

the saw is only on its second tank of fuel so not pushing too hard yet but it’s going to be strong and defiantely freeing up quicker than the 6100

There sure are going too be some happy Farmers out there after getting one of these Dolmar Farm Kings

Might try a 24” 3/8 050 full house skip and see how it’ll pull

That 550, if released here, might be perfect for a good friend of mine as His first "real" saw. He decided to learn to cut and I've been teaching Him on my equipment but that would be affordable and portable down the road....

So, is "Farm King" the actual name for this saw? In my ears, such a Farm Boss/Rancher style name doesn't belong on a Dollie.

 

[ajschainsaws]

no it isn't a serious name its one I stuck on the thread

I still want to know if the side cover and studs off the dolly 352 will easily fit the 3601??

Does it have a counter rotating chain?
