In the market for a decent small 2 cycle chainsaw. Have searched Google,
but this is a new year and thought maybe there's some new recommendations.

I have/had a 14" Crapsman about 25 yrs. old. Did the ultimate no-no and
loaned it out. It came back froze solid, the person "thought" they could
get by running it on straight gas! The saw did its duty over the years, and
I think I have to have the funeral for it.

Anyways, looking for something that will get light use for about 20 hrs. a
year.

Thanks.

If you want a good small saw, get an Echo CS-3000. It is a light weight
top-handle saw, and it's what all the tree trimmers here use. I've had
one for about 6 or 8 years and I love it. My big saw is also an Echo,
but most of the tree trimmers use Stihl for their big saws.

Next time you loan him a saw he will ruin it again but buy you a 6-pack.
