From what I saw on those vids most go for a pro saw 70 cc minimum and 30"+ bar length and a chain made to cut with the grain.

Thank you. That’s on the list for tomorrow. The 572XP is a 70cc saw. Salesmen told me today that the 562XP is a high reving SOB, especially for a 60cc unit. He said it will hang with the 70’s in all but the biggest wood.

Really, I may need to revisit the mill and how much it would actually get used. It would be just for screwing around. No real plans for it at this point.
