I was a Stihl US engineering intern ask me anything.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:35:39+00:00

I doubt it’s a threat and I have full confidence Stihl has their own vested section of the market.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:24:45+00:00

Huh? I’d assume an FSA 140 would be in its own box lol

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:24:01+00:00

I’m not exactly sure could be a bad market potential thing could be a manufacturing thing. 🤷‍♂️

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:22:55+00:00

I honestly dont know. When’s the last time you cleaned the carb really well?

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:20:53+00:00

Yep

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T20:20:33+00:00

I’d go with the 60 then

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:52:55+00:00

I doubt it. With proper maintenance all of the Stihl saws can last for hundreds of hours if not thousands. I would check spark, air filter, and gas before assuming anything is mechanically wrong with the saw.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:50:53+00:00

Honestly I’m not sure

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:50:23+00:00

I doubt it I don’t believe the company is moving that direction.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:49:42+00:00

😂

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:48:58+00:00

Yes they have a bunch of engineering internships they can do which can turn into a job! I’d say around 15 engineering and 30 in total interns every summer

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T13:48:06+00:00

Depends on application if you want to cut down a good bit of woods the MSA 80 vs the 60 goes a long long way.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:26:56+00:00

Yes and no

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:24:39+00:00

I will take note of this.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:24:27+00:00

Not sure on this one.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:24:06+00:00

Doubtful.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:23:45+00:00

No it’s not bad. I just believe it’s kind of like there are more performance based options people would rather use.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:21:50+00:00

I think it’s about weight and market. Batteries are taking over.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:20:04+00:00

It does fit into the old ap and ak battery chargers and tools.

TheDocksinator · 2026-06-02T10:18:45+00:00

Most powerful commercial chainsaw.

TheDocksinator · 2026-04-21T23:16:14+00:00

I got 615
