@chipper1 Brett, my 1st new saw purchase was a 450. Not a fan.



I'm a much bigger fan of the 350's.

Yes it is!

I like black to...

...

What's the white stuff called that fills in the stress cracks on red oak like that. I've found it on red oaks reaching for the canopy in valleys. I was working some down in one spot after a wind storm and had four of them around me and within 5 ft, fortunately I made the right cut and they all came crashing down around me .

Me too, that's why I said my favorite stock plastic saw .
I still like to run them, they do a fine job on anything under 12", but I'd much rather be running a ported 346 or my 550 in that size wood.
I need a couple loops of square for my little huskys.
I use that 2145/ported 346 for bucking dirty logs up at the house with a 16 x 325 in semi chisel, it's a fun saw for that.

No idea...I was going to do some cutting on that log until I saw how cracked and punky looking it was. There was some 24" and a little smaller ones I did get from the back of that pile. This is the park in the town I grew up in. Last spring they had a tree service come in and clean up all the dead and dying trees. Then a couple storms hit and they cleaned those up also. They stacked it all in this parking lot and was free for the taking!

Great they gave it away like that instead of having the tree company taking it, cheaper and it helps out the community/you .

@PA Dan . How long would it take you to shine this little guy up? Didn't have the dust collector on my planner and got a little bit of dust on it. LOL
