I was going to say for smaller logs you could just go with a chop saw.
I've got an electric chainsaw (18" Polan bought from Amazon.com for less then $100).
For what I use it (debranching limbs for the chipper, sawing 5-6 inch branches and small trees to shorter lengths, etc.), it works fine.
I don't know about long term durability in sawing larger stuff for extended periods (such as cutting cordwood to burning lengths) though...think I'd rather have a heavier gas chainsaw for that.
Could you please tell me the amazon link for that chainsaw, I could not it on amazon....
Thanks RoyJackson
I might buy this chain saw
Hi Guys
As per my other post about the wood stove (which I need to update with pictures). Stove is in the but not hooked up yet. I have 5 cord of wood
cut and split and about 4 cord is on my deck. I have some smaller logs
that I wish to cut up that I have brought up from the back and wood lot.
Most of them are no more then 6 inches around. I wanted to finished cutting
from log lengths to go into stove. I have bad wrists and find it very hard to
start a gas chain saw any more I can use it but not event the two stage ones can I start. So I was thinking for trimming near the barn which all
the log lengths are stacked of getting a an electric saw I have 3 gas ones, and looked at stihl as I love their products and found out that an electric saw would be about $369 up to $469. I can get cheaper ones like a
remington 18 inch one for about $94. I do have heavy duty cords that I use with the compressor so it will not loose power.
Big difference in price does anyone have an electric saw? and just for cutting log lengths up to 8 inches how do they work?
