    Hey Danno, love that 250. I'd bet she cuts real nice.

    for giggles, I have a 1-41, two 1-42's and a 1-72. I use them once in a while, amazes me that that run so well. I guess they came out in the 60's? so that makes them what 40-50 years old. These old girls all run 404 chain. I can switch all their bars and chains to the Huskie which really makes for some interesting setups.

    According to Chainsaw Collectors Website :

    1-41 March 1960 to February 1961

    1-42 March 1961 to April 1962

    1-73 May 1962 - 1963

    Myself,I'd love to have a SP125,CP125 or their predecessor,the 797. Basically the same unit,with minor cosmetic changes over the period.Production from 1967 to 1977.Can go from $400 to over $700 in good running condition on Ebay,I'm hoping to get lucky someday.

    agreed. A man can dream, right? The Super 250 will be pulling a .404 on a 36" bar when I'm done with it. Trying to see what sprocket options I have as the thing is a monster with torque, but runs WOT at something like 6,000RPMS.

    The 281 is Huge and Heavy....made the 660 I had here for a while look small and feel light.

    It's 80CC, but is ported and running gasketless. It will get traded soon, as I really have a use for anything that big. It was just a fun project. My 372 pulls a 28" bar just fine.

    Thats the way to go....404 is a much harder set up for grinding and you have a narrow kerf win win!

    Here is my little collection, none of them were purchased new. The Remington was was in the basement when I bought my house. The others were ether freebies or bought used and repaired/ rebuilt.
    The three I use are the Husky 350 and the Husky 36 and McCulloch electric with the chainsaw buddy.
