I have a weak-*** craftsman, I'd love to have a Stihl. The craftsman has been a good 1st/learner chainsaw though, it's underpowered enough that I never have to worry about it kicking up or catching real bad, it just bogs down instead.

So use it as firewood or are they worth money for hardwood?

I couldn't find anybody with any interest in it. I'm sure there were about 1000 similar oak trees toppled in the area during the storm. We've made good progress with it. Sawing it up and splitting it with a gas powered hydraulic splitter. Neighbor's dad has a use for the firewood.
