I like to mess around with old saws and I knew 044s were good so I figured it was a win win situation.

That was over a month ago and so far the echo has been a pleasant surprise. I've ran about 2 gallons of fuel through it, cutting green hickory, green ash, and an oak that was blowed over a year or so ago but still pretty solid. The echo is not shy on power, but is probably heavier than this 044. Also you feel a bit more vibration with the echo. Overall I'm happy with the results.
10 or 12mm 044? Slant fin cylinder?
