[QUOTE="damengineer, post: 1689927, member: 24810"] I have a Stihl MS194T with an 18in bar. It is a tip handle saw and with the longer bar I don't have to reach up or down as far to trim with. I also have a couple of Echo saws, 3 poulans, and a red max. I love working with the stihl as it is a one handed top handle arborist saw. My big Echo has a 24in bar and another one has a 18. I don't know either echo model. The Red Max is also a top handle and was used a lot when we were doing survey work. The Go-to saws are the Poulans. I have some Latino friends who help me clear fences. I get out the Poulans and the Chain sharpener with an inverter. They go to work clearing fencerow and I start sharpening chains. I keep 3 chains for each saw. They hit a lot of wires and rocks. The Poulans were bought at tractor supply the day after Thanksgiving a few years ago. They were $99 ea. They just keep on going... The Red Max ould no start last time I used it. The Stihl I love, but the kill switch quit working within the first hour I had it, have to choke it to stop. One of my echo saws I bought new the big one was from a pawn shop. The one I bought new started running rough and I quit using it. I found out later that I had the oil mixture too rich... [/QUOTE]
