    Which square grinder ?

    I really like the Makita teal color. There's a decent chance I'd have bought one if they didn't get out of the gas saw business.

    I recognize that! That's a poulan! That logo's all over those saws. :^P

    Which square grinder ?

    My 60(ms362 25" bar) was my first pro saw. When I got it, it was probably the perfect saw for me. Not so big that it was super scary to use, but big enough to do what I needed it to do. I also wasn't *into* this stuff. It was to get a job done, and that was it. 7+ saws later... 60cc is the true...

    Which square grinder ?

    I'd like a ~70cc class saw. I have a 60cc & 90cc. Seems like stuff falls in the middle a lot of the time. Too big for 60, but not big enough for the 90. I don't do enough to warrant getting one, but it would be nice to have.

    Which square grinder ?

    Well, they both have a niche use that's pretty handy. For the 5020, I'd rather clamp that pos in a mill than my better small saws. The edging mill especially will really thrash a bar, and the next saw in line is my 362 with a light bar, and I'm not gonna run bolts down on that thing. The 4218...

    Which square grinder ?

    :^D I was thinking about my chain when I was cutting the willow. That wood made me look like a sharpening wizard, but the truth is, it would probably still cut with the chain on backward :^D Right now, I have zero functional poulans. I need to get off my ass and see if the 5020 can be...

    Which square grinder ?

    Yea. I'm kind of interested in Stihl's hexa files, but I'd have to get full chisel chain to use them. Every time I try full chisel, I end up either cutting something nasty, or I stick the bar in the dirt. They look cool though. Kind of an easy square file that trades a bit of performance for a...

    Which square grinder ?

    That's why I was wondering about a machinist. I've never seen one of these, but at $2k a pop, it seems like might be money to be made for a small operation. Dunno how much the materials would cost, or how much time it would take to build from scratch.

    Which square grinder ?

    What's to stop someone from cloning them? How hard would it be for a decent machinist to replicate? realtime edit: Sounds like Burnham was thinking the same thing
