Thank you all. i have a 2007 john deere 548 g111 log skidder a case w-14 c loader, bobcat 175, husky saws. i am however wondering about the quality of the huskys as of late. ialso just bought a woodmizer lt40 to mess with but i have so much to learn on it. ia m looking forward to it though

[clww]

Sounds like you have plenty of useful machinery there to use around the mill, and get logs for the mill, too. 8)

Nice equipment pool you have. Which model Huskies giving you grief? I have had several over the years, most
Recent purchase '06 model 372XPW couldn't be happier wih it, been a great saw! I have kind of a mix now though, several Mac's a bigger Stihl, and a couple smaller (newer) cheepo poulans, all decent in their own right for what they were made for.

the 395 xpg's mostly. i sent a brand new one back at the end of the summer because it was only running when it wanted to. at least they replaced it with another new one. the one they replaced it with suddenly died while it was "dying" a nice white oak and would not restart. i took it in and luckily all it was was a piece of carbon in the spark plug. i hope that bad luck is over wit
