Yup, nice chainsaw. The guy running the safety course said firemen use that single handed (one hand on top) type so they can wrestle with roofing iron etc at the same time. Good for climbing and topping tall trees too I guess.
Near Husqvarna town. Wow. I like to think my chainsaw was put together by a bunch of absolutley beautiful blond girls, sitting around naked putting together chainsaws and drinking massive amounts of vodka. I suspect reality is a bit different but it works for me.
Echo's are a bit of a beast. Hee hee a friend has a tiny line trimmer that's an Echo and it almost custs down small trees.
A wood splitter sounds good. I've been sawing my rounds into about 200mm sections so I can just feed them straight into the woodburner. The best wood I've got is some 50 year old plus Australian Jarrah (sp). Admittedly it bluntens the chain every 20 cuts because the stuff is like iron. One chunk of Jarrah burnt for 23 hours in the woodburner.
I think using a chainsaw without a prior safety course would be frightening.
