WFO or I don't go
Just playing with my one and only saw my new MS261CM. Trying to decide if I’m going to void the warranty with a MM, BG delete and a timing advance. I’ve a total of 3 tanks as of today. Had the bar buried in some seasoned 18~ inch Black Locust. Hard stuff! I’m going to try and get her broken in this weekend.
Thats a racy lookin 590. I like it. for some reason the video won’t load
How many Echos do you have now? I honestly do miss mine. The torque was unreal.edit: just seen your sig list. I had to turn my phone sideways lol
I’m already thinking I need a bigger saw too.

Got a project 590?
Kinda I have a long term project that keeps getting set back... have a nice set of cases and crank if you’re interested.
That saw sounds great. Cuts great.

Been lurking for a bit. Pulled the trigger on a 600sx with the Fleet Week promotion. Too good of a deal to pass up. Thankful for the information this forum provided. Probably going to hold off on any mods for now but I'm sure I'll eventually try something given the knowledge and beta from this crowd.
Nice you’ll love it! When you’re ready a muffler mod and tune (as well as a base gasket delete) really wake it up! Congratulations!

Howdy. It's taken me a couple days to read through this thread, but I've finally made it through it all. Just picked up a CS-590 w/ 20" bar - we had a derecho come through about 2 months ago and I lost a lot of trees. I've got a cheap Husqavarna 240 'homeowner' saw w/ 16" bar, but it's struggled on some of the bigger stuff I have to clean up and I still have some trees to come down, so I was looking for something in the 20+ inch range. Seems like the Echo is a sweet spot for the home owner that wants a little better quality saw for the $$. Already put a tank a half through it chopping up a large (28"+) mulberry and still have a good sized ash to take down. Very happy with the power and cutting of it so far. Will probably open up the deflector and tune at some point. Just wanted to say "Hi" and thanks to everyone for posting their mods and tricks & tuning advice.

I'm in Cedar Rapids. We lucked out w/out too much property damage but most of our 25 trees took some sort of damage. Here's a couple pics of the mulberry tree, or what's left of it. I managed to get it on the ground with my 240 and a lot of patience, but really wanted something bigger to get it cut up and disposed of, and the 590 is working great for it.

I thought you might be in Cedar Rapids with the CR in your name. I am just east of Tama and we got hit hard too. Those winds really made a mess of things, didnt they.
