These were from previous workdays. Do pardon the presence of the Homelite in this picture:

One 26" oak limb that got SLD and fell down:

This tree was long dead and was covered with huge poison ivy vines. And you're right, that tree was a bit too dead to hinge well:

A good haul:

Also present but not included in the saws-of-the-day picture was an MS310 that actually worked pretty well, and an MS290 that I was hoping to sell to another AS member while I was back in the Detroit area.

The only other mishap of the day, apart from the recoil screws backing out on the 066 was my miscalculation landing a tree on both my 026P and my digital camera/tripod setup at teh same time; both survived. Nobody was hurt by saws, trees, debris, or anything else, which is always good. The jury is still out on wheter anyone picked up poison ivy, but fingers are crossed...

Also worth mentioning: the Makita 6401 is the ex-HomeDepot Rental unit I purchased on May 8th. It worked great, surprisingly strong for 64cc.

Believe it or not, none. I had two chains and I used them both, sharpened each one twice. RS full skip.
