CHAINSAW FOR SALE

Husqvarna Model 61 Chainsaw with a 24" bar

If it's in real good shape, I'd maybe go $200.00. They're a good saw, but fairly heavy & older technology. If you're looking to cut a few cord a year with it I think you'd be happy with it. Might want a shorter bar though. A C

For $200 I'd snap it up & am not in the market for another saw right now either.

Got one new in 1982, now my back up saw , 20". Runs strong it just got hard to start & not idle well.
Used it for many years cutting 8 - 10 cords per year. Son-in-Law uses it when we go cutting.
In good shape, a $200 saw. IMO
