Like drag strip talk boasting can come back and bite you in the rear.
I know guys that cut for a living. They are pros and they go Stihl.
all the loggers down here run Husky's.......i cut over 100 cords a year firewood....
Husky doesn't have near the dealer network around me as Stihl does. I'm not going to go to Rural King looking for saw parts.
I like chain saws

my dealer network is the internet.....never seen any Husky parts at RK?

My only problem is spending BIG coin on something I cant see and feel in person first.
I buy a lot of stuff on the net but it doesn't do any good if I need the part in the next day or 2. If you need any more than a bar, chain, plug, or air filter, you'll likely not find it in a box store.
yep has a Buick v-8...
Now that I'm better at filing, I might have better luck with Oregon. They just didn't seem to stay sharp as long as the Stihl chains. Nothing personal against Oregon the company.
My 25" chains run $25-30 each depending on the delear so I was wondering if there was a better option out there.
How much does your local dealer charge to sharpen chains?
Mine charges $6.95 if its under 20 and $8.95 if its over.
You will find that not many people can sharpen correctly with a machine. They leave the disc engaged on the tooth too long and takes the temper out of it.
YOu would be money ahead to use a file and touch up as needed. The one I posted earlier in this thread is an excellent tool.
