What have you added to your arsenal

[woodfarmer]

Picked up a nice 460 magnum for $400

A wood hauler / trailer puller/ trash truck/ work truck/ kid hauler in wood etc truck. Very proud to not have to use my new truck for firewood.

Thanks

Added that little brother PS 32 at the top of the pyramid to my arsenal this week. Got it from the Inventory Reduction thread in the Tradin Post.



Then, kind of added a loan of a bucket truck to christen the little guy in some Honey Locust and Maple.



Another check-off on my Bucket List.

What are the specs? That thing looks nice!

137 cc's and 13 HP. Tachs out at 10,000 RPM so it is slower than a modern saw but does not give up. Has a 4 ft bar on it now. Got a new 3 ft bar and some NOS dogs. runs .063 404 RSC chain.

I just got a sweet deal on an 034 super. This thing really rips and I think it will be a nice addition to the family. I just love these older saws!

Still rue the day I sold my 034!

I have been very impressed with my old 034 av super. Especially after cutting with my brother's new ms362. My old saw is lighter and has the same power. However it doesn't hold a candle to the 362 in smoothness. That new stihl has some incredible vibration dampening.

Have you ever run a O34 Mag?...those saws are as rare as hens teeth!

Nope. How is the mag different?

Picked up a 421 and P5100s Dolmar for 125 a piece. A tune up and some new chain and those babies have been my first 2 saws to grab over my orange and whites.

Craigslist find - 346XP NE for $200. Pretty sure he was selling it cheap because it was hard to start. Choke linkage was disconnected, so it wasn't choking at all. Now it starts and runs like a champ.

My bad mn woodcutter...I meant a 038 Mag which is a 13,500 rpm & 72 cc saw...been craving one for a spell!

 

[mn woodcutter]

Hmmm. Now I will be on the lookout for you.
