These things are the bees knees.
Just set up the second helmet for my groundie (my father) when he works for me occasionally. And the cord protectors make it so tidy. And so cheap.
I would be curious to others experience. It’s my first worked on saw. So I can’t really quantify the extra power. I will say, I can fire this saw in one pull if I take the choke off quick enough. Almost every time from cold. And it is very peppy in throttle response. I run a 24” skip tooth...
I wanted to revisit this statement haha.
Looks like ripsaw only has husqvarna and one echo (2511) that they have available for purchase.
Red beard has a 201 available and their 2511 price is cheaper than ripsaw ….
I have been really happy with my rip saw 462 and have heard guys are happy with the smaller saws they (ripsaw) have built. Prices are outrageous these days. So I’m not sure how that plays with other builders
Hours?
Transmission? Auto or manual?
I’ve heard good things about ALC units. Are parts readily available? I have only used the pistol grip style boom trucks.

I’m just starting out on my own. Would be a money maker for me. But I’m not there financially yet or space wise!
Looking to offload some lightly used gear.
Shoot me an offer.
Zigzag is very lightly used. Bought from another buzzer, I’ve literally used it on one spruce removal and one birch trim.
Treemo: used for one year in light production setting (new guy) still has plenty of life. Velcro doesn’t...
Is it the 7.0 liters that had lots of problems? I think that is what the company had in a 650 platform. EGR replaced at least once. We sent it on down the road before other serious problems. It was leaking a small amount of coolant…
6speed manual but wish it had a low low gear. 1st was a bear...
I have had experience with replacing the vent cap and can say it was an easy fix with no further issues. The machine does really well in my limited experience with other makes. We have a local bandit dealer which I’m sure also plays into our purchasing of equipment. We also use the sg40 which is...
It’s the kernraptor from arbsession. 11mm kernmaster. And the carabiner and pulley are both teuffelberger. Nice and compact for a lanyard setup with MRS attachment.
Been using blue 32 single line for a few months now. 28” oceans poly 8mm hitch. With rw on the arbsession caralink tether. Grabs very reliably. My lanyard is kernmaster with epicord 9.3mm 26” (a little short but works in this setup decent.)
And I would add to all the other great comments. Galvanized if you can afford it. Run away from big Tex. No offense to anyone who has one. But the powder coating does not last in the salt bath that the north east takes every winter.
We run a suretrack (sp?) 12’ with a three stage telescoping...
