[AT] OT Chainsaw recommendations?

[Paul Waugh]

That is an old saw!!  I have a 25 yr old Echo weed whacker.  It needed some 
work and I took it to a dealer.  What came out of this is, they don't seem 
to make things like they used to, the dealer was doubtful today's product 
would last 25 yrs of the heavy use I gave it the first 15 yrs. It would cost 
twice as much to replace the same machine, which might last half as long ... 
good luck on you venture.
