I like the small saws. don't cut firewood, just maintain my property and only cut down trees when they die. I have several vintage smalls, but this was hard to pass up. seller was a small tree service owner. I watched it on marketplace for a couple of days pondering. I know it's a plastic saw, but I watched a few youtubers run one and they seem to cut well for what they are. made an offer 50.00 lower than the price to pay for the hour each way drive.
