Jay,

I hate to burst your bubble, but I was a professional logger for several
years and there is no such thing as a nice Homelite. :-)

If it isn't a Stihl, it isn't a chainsaw. :-)

My 056 is 20 years old and still going strong and I use it a fair bit.
My only complaint is that Stihl no longer stocks parts for it. I think
it will outlive me if I don't drop a tree on nit.
