Our Audrey is a dab hand with the chainsaw Jim. You can have her FOC for a year or two (When my sheds finished).

On a serious note the Sthil Chainsaws are superb but a lot of money. If it's going to be used day after day it would be a sound investment. But for occasional use I would look at a cheaper version. I have had a B&Q petrol saw for years now and it still performs well. I also have an electric one which I brought on a boot market for a tenner, put a new chain on it and it's great for use about the garden etc. I only use the petrol one now when I have to go out harvesting some free timber.
