Or you could just flog it to someone needing a gruntier saw with more bar....... like me.

Found the Stihl MS640, MS180, and husky electric pole saw take care of everything on a lifestyle block. Half of the big gums have been felled, and it will be a bunch more years before the rest get dropped. The MS640 will just be a decoration until then.

Anyone have a need for a Stihl 034 for parts?Got one here thats done average hours.Got wet on the Hollyford while being used as a lewis winch doing the jboat snig thing.No doubt salvageable but when I took it into the local Stihl agent to assess he just happened to have running on special the annual show day sale.The sales pitch worked & I upgraded to a larger model.Nth Canty but travelling to Sth Westland in a tortnight so could drop off along the way

I can grab and bring up if it will go on plane in chainsaw case.

Here's my two saws I currently own one being a Husky 288 and a 495 and both are awesome saws but at the moment I'm looking at upgrading to either a 572XP or 395 so in a month I'll see what I get.




Last year I ended up ringing, splitting just on 120 cubic metres of wood because I got a little carried away and there's a bit of a long story to it. Sold most of it but also gave some of it to some needy families in the community as I didn't want to see them go cold especially the kids.

My boys helping with splitting



Borrowed a mates Stihl MS 881 (121.6cc) chainsaw with a 42 inch bar to help cut up a pile of beautiful macrocarpa. The saw is a beast to use!

yes them big Stihls are a thing of beauty...and are a beast all right,unreal powder.

So just the little home handyman wood splitter for you I see

My two saws, MS250 and an MS500i.
Just ordered a West Coast Saws bark box for the 500i, will be interested to see how it goes.
