Title: Husky T435
Post by: badpenny on July 23, 2011, 07:36:46 PM
 8) 8) 8)New from dealer today, been waiting 2 weeks. Tried it out tonight on some small firewood 2-6 ", and am very satisfied with it. Should be a good smaller saw to compliment  the 372XP and 351 I am currently using  8) 8) 8)

Be aware that it isn't a pro quality saw. The feed-back I have seen on it is quite good anyway.

Don't use a top-handle saw for cutting at the ground!

The 435T is a rebadged Redmax 3500T. So far I have only heard good things about them and being very affordable.

I'm interested to know why you would say that SawTroll? I carry 2 TH saws in my toolbox for everyday use. They do 95% of my work for me (pruning, pollarding, dropping small trees) I only take the bigger saws to work if I'm working on a fairly big tree.

   I am curious, too. Can't see why where I stand affects the running of a chain saw, be it on the ground or on the floor of a bucket that is in the air.
