I guess it's that time of year again, huh?
I'm looking for a small electric chainsaw that I and my 14 year old stepson can operate easily, just for breaking up brush into kindling and hacking down some of the smaller hackberry-type trees we have around here. Nothing over 6 diameters and honestly I could do it with a hatchet if I really wanted to, but I have a yard full of the stuff and my wrists are developing carpal tunnel. =P
I'm not expecting this to last for forever, I just want it to be easy to operate, have a top-handle, and be able to do the small branches. I have a Stihl gas powered saw that's been doing me fine for real logcutting, but it's heavy and I want something easier on the hands weight and vibration wise for the dinky stuff.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks much!
