Refreshing to see something different! Thanks for sharing, Randy.

The saw looks stout and utilitarian. I will be interested to hear your assessment of the handling/antivibe, as well as performance with a big bar in big wood.

Looking good Randy. I can only imagine what you would end up with after working over a CS-1201.

I wonder if that saw has a two piece head? The spark plug position definitely does not look stock!

 

[mdavlee]

I'm sure it has a 2 piece head.

God, please don't let it rain in Jamestown tomorrow.

I'll be testing it in that same wood I used for the Solo a few days ago.

That saw is freaky strong. Looks like 20-21 seconds in the cut. We know the Echo is much heavier...hopefully we will get to see how close it cuts.

I bet his neighbors hate him.lol I know my neighbors would hate me if I had time to build hotsaws.

Im curious myself just how this compares to the 665 solos with 7910 top ends....
Im gonna guess not quite as fast but maybe torquier. Im liking this echo except for two things the size and weight. Its still pretty cool and that oil override is sweet
Thanks Randy cool thread!!!!

Not sure what one of those Solo 665 hybrids weighs but I think the Echo is at least 1.5 lbs. heavier than a 7910. Course, if Randy can make the 800p run like a 661 or a 390xp, it will make the weight a little more tolerable.

 

[rocco490]

I hope he makes it a monster. wish echo would throw a bigger jug on it for 90+cc

Interesting to look at the cost and "ready to cut" weight (no bar) between these saws:

cs800p: PHO: 16 lb, 8 oz......Fuel: 28.9 oz.....Oil: 14.1 oz......TTL: 19.18 lb.....MSRP: $829.99

390xp: PHO: 16 lb, 6.8 oz.....Fuel: 30.43 oz...Oil: 16.91 oz....TTL: 19.38 lb.....MSRP: $1,120.00

ms661: PHO: 16 lb, 11.2 oz....Fuel: 27.9 oz.....Oil: 12.2 oz..... TTL: 19.20 lb.....MSRP: $1,289.95

Edit: Don't flame me. I'm not saying the 800p is in the same category as the other saws. Just making the point that, at a certain price point, there MAY be potential.
