I have 4, Stihl 390, 290, 211, & a Husky 51 I think it says. I found it just laying there on the ground next to the metal dumpster at the transfer station. No one else was there, & it wasn't in a spot where someone could have taken it out of the truck to get other items out & forgot to pick it up, it was off to the side, I think the Original owner just got tired of it leaking all the time. I also have my neighbors Stihl saw up here, needed a carb swap before we realized how terrible ethanol is in small engines.

I wish I had gotten the ms261 instead of the 390, for some reason the chain brake rubs on my knuckles when I hold the handle, very annoying. I don't see anyone else complaining about it tho, not sure what's going on.

Are you sure, maybe you need to go back and look again, how many saws do you have now? I have 3 for cutting wood and that's just enough for what I do, I heard the recommended number of saws to have is 4.

I am up to six right now. Only use two of them regularly, the Husky 562 and Echo 501. Of the others, one is the 461 for big wood and milling, one is an old Poulan antique from the 1970s, one is an Echo climbing saw I rarely use anymore, and then one Echo 40cc I use for odd jobs (demolition) or to loan out to friends. That 40cc Echo cuts great -- takes a licking and keeps on ticking.

What is this elastro start all about, I dont remember seeing that before.

Larger Stihl saws have had that for years. My 460's got it and it's two generations older than the 462. It's a rubber block in the handle. It smooths out the sharp hits on the cord when you're pulling. It's fairly subtle but it does help.

That only happens if you drag your knuckles when you walk :D

What you got so far, 2-1/2 cord? You must have good drainage in that field, if here I would sink out of sight.
