Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Help Time for a larger chainsaw

Cat:

I've a arborist's Echo in the stable that will take a 12",14" or 16" bar, and that's what I've been doing the majority of my cutting with. I can cut 20" dia trees with it, but it's a LOT of work. I'm seeing some trees that'll need a saw that are a lot bigger than 20" dia. My Dad has a Clinton chainsaw that he purchased in 1967 that has a 24" bar on it. If you want a workout, try cutting a whole day with that! Earplugs AND earmuffs. Their idea back then of a muffler was a 4" long slightly curved "straight" pipe with a screen on the end. I'll bet that saw weighs 30#.
