Looking for a good electric chain saw Original Message Jun 14, 2005 3:07 pm
I haven't done much looking but I don't have much need for one other than once in a while to cut average size chunks of wood. I see that Milwaukee has a 16". I figure I need a 16-18". I'm just looking right now and don't really have need to buy yet.

I understand Stihl's are just about the best. I believe some woods are harder to cut through, such as oak. I really don't need an 18", a 16" would probably be plenty. I would like sharpening of the chain to be easy. I am interested in the Echo Pro attachment series, so I can add attachments as I need them. I am wondering what kind of work I can do with the chain saw accessory Echo and Stihl makes. You all have me thinking I want gas, but don't want to go over $200.

Sorry I have been gone so long. I realise that B&D is not your color but they made electric lawn and garden equipment. Mabie they will have something for you. If not, I would go with the Stihl.

Black and Decker is my color, I like orange. They make pole prunners, but I don't see chain saws listed. I think since they do so well with their other equipment, they might have a nice chain saw pop out of the factory.
