I've not run a 6100 yet. But from what I've seen they're very similar in weight and power. I can say that the m-tronic is definitely a nice feature that dolmar hasn't yet offered.

Im debating a 6100 or 362c and already have a 441c and love the mtronics. Im very interested to see ur progress with the 362c.

If you're satisfied with the m-tronic system I'd recommend looking at the 362cm.

200$ difference in saws! Guess the m tronics is worth it though. How do u think the 362c would be with an 18b/c for topping and limbing?

Personally I'd gear towards the 261cm. The 362cm would get cumbersome limbing amd topping.

I already have the stage one 261 on here for sale and have CAD for a 362c or a 261c!! lol!!

I love the way the 362 C-M handles with a 20" bar, I'm sure it would be even better with an 18", and will have more power than you will need. I also agree with Moody's comment, and the advertised weight of the 362 is a little less than the 6100, but I have never run one of them (looks like a nice saw).

It will limb very fast, max RPM 14,000, max power at 10,000.

Well I'd go with the 261c for sure

You can resist, but never win. Simply comply and buy (a new C-M)

I know it's stamped, but working in the steel industry, sometimes a lighter, higher grade of steel, that's stamped. Will be stronger than a thicker piece of just plate steel.


Is it bending or getting crushed?

I only ask because I noticed that immediately myself. But cutting it and stamping it, costs more than just cutting (like all the older models).

It would appear moody is using the ES bar, substantial weight difference to the E bar. I thought a MS 362 balanced pretty well with and 20 E bar and sharp RS chain.

This video shows the torque of the OE version after port work. .The cm seems to offer a little more chain speed. That was 2 week old black walnut.

It's bending and just flat out cheap. I don't have an issue with stamped metals but this is a low quality metal.

You must be incredibly wealthy to be using a $7500 highly valuable black walnut log to test saws.

It was in a back yard. So it's worth about $40 a truck load in firewood.

Thanks for the offer of Red Herring, but I'm full.

Take two builders who are relatively new to the saw mod business. One dyno tests incremental mods, with the data guiding his direction. The other just goes by his gut feeling. If you want to bet on gut feeling winning, I will take your wager.

The dyno talk is over. I'd appreciate it if it were left alone.

How's the A/V on it?

Moody, don't worry about it, you got a lot of us following your progress, and appreciating that you too are human.
