I ordered one of these from Amazon.
Gave it a good workout and cut a lot of green and dead locust limbs. The two-way cutting chain saw part seemed to work pretty good. Although it seemed to be dulling after 5-6 hours on and off cutting, throwing dust vs chips in the beginning.
I had trouble with the support hardware. It either didn't work for the application or was cheap and worked poorly. One of the ropes wore to the point of breaking and had to be tied to keep from separating.
I'm not one to buy stuff, use it for the weekend, then return it. This wasn't what I paid for though. I returned it.
I seriously considered keeping it, just for the chain saw part, but again not what I paid for.
You guys got any advice on a better version of this? Or maybe better yet, just the two-way cutting chain part that I can build on with proper support parts.
