FarmerTec Holzfforma G660 Purple Monster

[Bedford T]

Dude turn off fox. And let me talk about my post. I am sure there are threads you can fit in go find one

How do you fight assumptions the Bedford way? Make your own and insinuate everyone is paranoid. Brilliant!

Do you really assume that Farmertec cares that much about assembly? Its a dude with a mallet, a press and a T27 going to town. Price is way to low to be much more even at their labor and material costs.

You might find a $800 dog of a 660 here used. Never cheaper

The only Chinese clone saw I'd be interested in would be the 070/090 clone, since they're really hard to find parts for. As to the 660, I can find low hour used saws everywhere and freshen them up with OEM rings etc.... for less than $600 total and have a reliable / known quantity saw. The Chinese hobby saw would have to be much less than that to get my attention. I have the time to spend tinkering, but not the money to waste. I do however enjoy reading about others who have the coin and patience to over come the challenges posed.

I have never seen a 660 in my area. All I ever see here are 50 and 60cc firewood saws.

We all know Stihl has factories in China. What if Stihl is making these blue saws for huztl?

You keep mentioning this other company building them and it was driving me crazy. I went and found Kimball video and he said a third party puts them together for them. Farmertec is a manufacturer and buyer. They make/buy stuff, box it up, ship it all over the world. Huztl is their amazon. The other stuff is shipped. They needed assemblers to put the stuff together. They also are behind Arbortec.net on HL website and eBay. Their core business is not twisting screws (wink)

Dude it's a building where the workers assembly the saw parts Farmertec provides into whole saws. Some small business guy has some trained workers and he brings them into the building on the days they need saws built. That is all there is to it. Not big blue company doing it. I think Farmertec has a lot of buildings.

It amazes me how turned around y'all get. I guess it's the stupid small phones and our action packed lives, lol

Did you ever notice the 070 is assembled, it's the same deal. You would not want the guys packing those kits building those saws...right lol

They don't come up often, but to say they never do, they're dogs, and cost $800+ is beyond ridiculous.

Anyone with any time working on both knows how silly this is too

That “afleetcommand” fella has a couple or more serious runners.

I fell asleep on the couch with his videos going on the hutzl stuff...

Knowledge by osmosis. Ha!

I bought a “champion”generator last year. It has about 20 hours on it. Nothing. But it runs like a top! So far. My first Chinese engined thing. Oops! One of my tractors has a Chinese built Perkins in it. One from the good Chinese factory. Not from the one that cheated and screwed up a whole bunch of engines and who eventually lost the Perkins deal but now makes ****** clones, I think. Anyway..

Tons of the stuff we buy has Chinese components. Many/most of the biggest manufacturers in the world have factories in China.

Eventually they will build a freakin good chainsaw. At a good price. Obviously. It’s only a matter of time and development.

But there’s a lot more to supplying the professional than simply making a good saw

I have one coming, going to a real logger, not a firewood cutter , we will see what happens . I bought one a month ago, it runs and cuts not a Stihl by no sense of the word, but I did not expect it to be. Have 440 KIT , IT BLEW UP AFTER 1 TANK OF GAS broke the crank. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR

my contribution to thread ! bought a 070 knockoff and it is slow throttle response. by-passed gov. raised rpm;s to 9500 still slow as steam off a pile of crap on a 0* morning

 

[Bedford T]

Wrong thread...You bought the wrong saw if you wanted a fast saw nothing wrong with the 070. It is slow for a reason. Chews up big wood all day long

Well, they’ve got them on sale now for $246 shipped. That was cheap enough to convince me to pull the trigger on one.

Have you ever assembled a kit?

I ordered one after watching his video. Will see for myself.

Haven’t tried a kit yet. I was tempted awhile back, but the high cost of shipping scared me off.

I agree all major companies have a factory in china . I just did a cleanup/carb/lines on a 1996 Husky 45 this morning and even back then the carb is a Zama. That said I have a 660 kit saw . I also have repaired many stihls with Hyway pistons. I did a 029/039 using a Hyway cyl and a Cross pop up piston this summer for a firewood cutter. I have put a couple gallons through it ripping large ash rounds . I am totally happy with it . The only thing I dont like is with a OEM 25" bar it tips to the ground. It is so close to balanced that a bare bar sits level till you add the chain. Im going to drop down a couple inches.

Update ! 7 days since ordered and paid , no ship yet !
