Chinese saws

[KASH]

Why can we not have a sticky for saws from communist China?
I think it would keep alot of the info in one place and it would keep the guys in the loop on how and where to purchase the made in China parts.

When I want parts I usually search for the part in google or/and in a similar web search, and eventually I often end up in one or two of the web shops I have had great success in buying from earlier on. If I search for aftermarket parts that may be out of production/unobtainable or simply too expensive for my wallet as OEM - I prefer to buy from web shops that carries parts from multiple vendors and that says what vendor each part comes from, sometimes you can choose between the same part made by different vendors. That may be about quality or it may be about cost, often a part made in say Taiwan for example may have a better quality than one made in China but at a higher cost.

It would be nice to have a sticky.
Some guys hate chinese saws and post crap about how they arent worth fixing every time someone post about fixing one, those guys could avoid that section easily if it was its own sticky.

There's a bunch of guys who like to tinker with cheap saws to see how fast they can get them to cut. I've built a couple of the 52-62cc chinese saws.

I agree there should be a Chinasaw stickie. There's plenty of info and threads on the clone saws, but I rarely see anything regarding the China saws that are so plentiful (under a multitude of manufacturer names) on eBay and other retailers. I don't own any of those saws but there must be thousands of people that do, and a dedicated section might be popular amongst that crowd.
