[AT] OT Chainsaw recommendations?

[william.neff.powell at comcast.net]

I love my Stihls... 

Had my original Farm Boss 029 about 10 years and I have an extra 029 and an 017. Have only changed chains, bars, etc and cleaned the air filters.... Never fowled a plug. They always start and run strong. I cut and split about 5 chords a year. 

Regards,

Will Powell
