I just found a mac 110 thats been sitting in my barn for 30 years....thought it be a good completlent to by big saw, wanted to see her in action, see if it be worth my time to get it running again.
Debating on picking one of these up as I'm a vintage saw guy. Really was wondering what's faster between the mini macs or homelite xls I have like 10 homelite xls/xl2s
hey’re heavy for their size compared to today’s saws. Power wise they also lack many would say. Longest bar I’ve ran on one of these is a 16” which It’ll pull that all day. They’re a temperamental saw to say the least, but if you have a sharp chain that’s what makes the difference no matter the age or color she is👍
@@vitaliipolansky5490 a ms200 was and is probably the best top handle saw ever made for tree climbers. That's my opinion, so take that for what it's worth; but I've ran both and the ms200 is the superior saw in all areas. Makes me sad to admit that; with how much I like the little macs. The ms200 defiantly isn't the cheapest saw, and they're not as easy to come by anymore.
@@jimhurricane5831 It's sad that it's not better than Stihl, but you know what is? The big one! 125 Super Pro! Oh Yeah! That saw cuts! =) It's better than Stihls 090 😃
I believe the biggest bar I've ran is a 16". Seemed to me like these 110's could handle a little more, but I've never tried myself. Depends on what gauge chain you're running as well as cutter profile will make a difference. 18" might be too big for a good balance of the saw but that's all I got! Hope this helps!
@@vitaliipolansky5490 I have a McCulloch 130 and I like it. With the right care they are great running and cutting saws. It's definitely not my go to saw, but if I have a job that i feel like i want to use it on I bust it out!
