They are both nice saws for sure. I like that you can grind the divider on the 365 xtorq transfer covers and have a 372 XT, or eventually swap it all over to an XP (or big bore) top end. I think the 562xp would be best for the guy that just wants to go cut lots of wood, the 365 XT for the hobbyist that enjoys to mod as there are tons of options and aftermarket parts available.
I appreciate that you didn't forget about the 365. All about the 562 these days. I've replaced my old 272XP with a 572 and the 365. 365 isn't here yet, had to mail order one, local shops don't carry them. Piped the 572, horrible OEM muffler, horrific in fact. Thanks for not forgetting the seldom talked about 365.
The best is the one that gets your job done with the least work. Every tree and every job is different. For me that generally means a factory hot rod. A mod saw would be nice and I watch this channel to motivate me build a kinda big slightly hot rod. Backup will be the stock pro saws. 346xp and ms360. A mod 70ish cc would be fun. A 2511t is also on the to do list.
Everyone has a favorite old saw, but generally manufactures make improvements to their line of saws in order to continue to sell to demanding professionals. The newer saws are generally easier to live with day to day, but I still like using the old ones too.
My 1990 262 still my all time favourite. Got farmertec 372 this fall. Impressed with it. But, G660 & G395 are both 8kg bare weight, exactly same as G372 I’d already ordered. To reverse my buyers remorse I’ll get one of these next. Gotta love Farmertec, built for the working man
I agree with your comments about all the online negativity. Seems that there’s more of that going around these days about pretty much everything. I had an early 372xp (01) for 10yrs, and in 2011 it was stolen. Good saw, never an issue with it. Replaced it with a 2011 562xp, have had it for13yrs & no issues. Always liked a screwdriver saw, but can’t complain about the auto tune on the 562. They don’t take well to mods cuz the a/t can’t always compensate, but in stock form the auto tune genarally works well. Been looking @ an early 365 special (65cc) that I can pick up @ a decent price, so I can have another old school saw. Good video, keep em coming!
I liked using my Dad's old Model 61 Husky, until the oil pump went out. Now I have to say my favorite is the used and abused $50 455 Rancher, it always starts and runs.
Love your content Tinnan. I'm on my third build, thanks to your "how to port a power saw series" first build was a 52cc Dolmar 111i. Really happy with the results....especially now it has a second muffler mod done. Second build was very mild....a Chinese 372 copy....only did the transfers and a base gasket delete....exhaust opens at 96 ATDC so didn't want to move it up any more. I am wondering what you normally find exhaust opens on a genuine 372. Currently working on a Dolmar 115. Same as the 111 but closed port. Going back together tomorrow. Cant wait to ring that...building an iron horse muffler for that one. Got a few stock Stihl saws 018, 034. 500i and a Homelite 330. Want to add a couple of huskys to the mix. All saws make me happy. Thanks for your channel. Hope Mrs Tinman and bub are well.
We should all be here to learn and enjoy our power saw not to bash others no time for that nonsense . I am 55 years old have been tinkering on two strokes since the early 80s and still learning keep up the good content I am sure to follow you and the ironhorse Thanks Friend for your time 8 30 pm from North Carolina
Have a 372xp love it. Just bought a 365 xtourc did a small logging job to day with the biggest tree being 26in on the stump. I use 30 and 32 I ch bars full house and semi scip. Like bothe saws am going to do some moffeler work on the 365 and take out the baffle plates.
I’m late but it was a great video. My favorite is what I can afford and have. Nice point about the long bar and it being away being better. But I think an 18 inch bar really wakes up a 60 cc saw. My husky 460 became more fun when I went from 24 down to an 18. But to each his own. Saws are like people each have good in them if you look!
Run a 365 xtorq in large fir and oak in oregon with a 28in bar. Have dropped it out of a tree and several friends have borrowed it. Runs like a champ and just never gives up. many friends have commented that even full into an oak log it will pull through where their Stihl homeowner saw will just give up. Nice channel! Found you through buckin's channel.
Hey Tinman, very solid approach I would say. People have different needs and are build physically their own way. It is good to hear your thoughts on various saws because few of us have access to so many different types of saws as you do. The kid in the local shop often only knows enough saw basics to sell the odd one and may be well meaning but really doesn’t have saw background. I just scored a Jonsered 2165 and although I have never used one I feel good that its a fit for me in large from watching your vids….and thanks for them.
My favorite for smaller stuff is my 257 w/20" bar & a full house chain. It's a perky saw. Very old, like me. Had it since new and just good maintenance and it's still a ripper. Bigger stuff, my 288 xp. That's another story. 🙃
Beautiful video, my friend! Really appreciate your comments about positivity, which is why you have attracted so many great subscribers! 👍💪🙏 As far as saws close to that class, I keep coming back to the Husqvarna 359. Probably my favorite all-around firewood and smaller tree cutting saw. Back when they were regularly sold, the price point was good, and I think the value is great!
I agree on the 562 i have a ton of saws and i grab my 562 98% of the time and if i had to pick only one saw 562 would be it. Just cause its light fuel efficient and it will pull a long bar about as good as the 572xp
@@chaddean3083 ill agree with that i use 70 cc and bigger for larger stuff and 60 and smaller for little wood but i still run longer bars on them just cause i normally dont bury them in wood
@@DoyleShadduck oh there is if u get someone porting them that knows what there doing and i said they do about as well not as good of course anything bigger is gonna be stouter but as far as power to weight the 562 is superior it amazes me the amount of dumb people that comment on u tube like yall three are the only ones that knows a 572 is stouter than a 562
Congratulations on 27k well deserved. Both saws looked to cut that punky willow...😆, with ease as they should. But the difference in weight would give the edge to the 562 in my book. Both wonderful saws. Nice to see stock saws run. Kind & healthy thoughts for Mrs. Tinman, TC Tinman Mahalo🤙🤙🤙
Hey from the UK Tinman. I’ll give you a tip, the 365XT is set lean from the factory, get her dialled in ASAP. I had a piston start melting, turned it off before I totally junked it. I Rebuilt her with a Meteor top end. Respect.
Having never ran either, from what I've heard, seen and read, if I had to only pick one for everything I'd prefer the 562xp. But I really like that husqvarna kept the good Ole 300 series alive for a little longer with the 365! Even if I'm not the biggest strato fan.
interesting to see another view of the saws and bars to tackle this job with, if I were doing this job I'd take my 550xp wth 13" or a 562 with 16". horses for courses :-), had my 562 since 2015, its lovely saw, enjoy and stay safe bro
You're videos are AMAZING!!! I need help!! I can't find anyone that compares the 365 special to 365 x torq, stock, for firewood and a little felling and bucking. Which one is better for power and longevity?
A fun video so far. The saplings kind of need to die. As a forest grows it’s trees need more room, it’s canopy keeps the young bucks at bay. Cleaning deadwood for heat is honorable, cutting it for fire prevention is noble.
I got a bunch of saws. Usually I go with the 353xpg and 15" or 550xpg with 13". If its larger trees I'll bring with me the 560xpg and 18". But the 372xpg with 20" usually stays at home, its good but just to heavy to carry around. This is my standard set up. I think they are best balanced with those bars. And there aren't any big trees around here in mid sweden anyway. I have longer bars that I can use but it just feels like they are in the way and I loose a lot of speed. Maybe its worth to notice that xpg is a bit heavier than an xp due to handle heating, and I'm quite short. Anyway I fully agree that everyone should use the saw they like. There is not such a thing as a perfect saw for everyone and every job.
Great to hear that message ! Just aquired my first pioneer p12. All there but the rear antivibe mount. Unobtanium. Any suggestions would be appreciated. 27000 subs and still climbing. Awesome... Hope Mrs.Tinman is doing well.
When l bought the 365 , l thought it was a tiny one , last year l bucked a fourty inch windfall , right down to the stump , no problem . What ? No Bucking pads 👍🇨🇦
If you like saws, you probably have a few of them. It is interesting to me to see which saw I grab, and why. Sometimes I grab the muffler modded Dolmar 510, even though it is heavy, and not super fast, just for fun. It is smooth, and gets the job done, and who cares about 1 second when you are working. For bigger wood, I always grab either the Dolmar/Makita 7910 or Jonsred 2071 (372), both of which have longer bars and rip good. But, some years I have cut more than 1/2 of the wood with a 50cc saw, Dolmar, Echo, Poulan - whatever, if the chain is sharp. Old saws sometimes for nostalgia. But, my best all around saw for regular sized firewood is definitely the Jonsred 2260 (562). Light, fast, nimble, and solid once you figure out the stay at high idle for a half minute when starting sometimes, and set high idle when hot starting. Autotune is great, but different if you are used to regular saws. Keep up the videos. Appreciate them.
Picked up a Jonsered super 820! I think it's a 281 with the Jonsered bodywork. Needs a full wrap but I think that's going to be something I'm going to have to make.
Willows are for wooden shoes; They don't split... Well said, there is no saw that is best. Only the best for you to do with it! I like making modifications on saws, but not pushing them to the limit. I've never used a timing wheel, just two-stroke logic And it works for me!
I went to a saw shop the other day and I don't know what size saw this was but it was a Dolmar and that saw was a beast , I'm going to find out more about it because it blew me away !
Watching trying to make a decision on what next Husky to buy...Leaning to a 372. I like your channel and honest reviews and tips although I gotta say, over 20 years I've not had a problem with my Stihl flippy caps I had to replace the fuel cap once because the seal was leaking but one replaced cap over 20 years of use is dang good. I don't get why they leak for some people, maybe the same reason mine did, just need to replace it for like $15
My local dealership had two 562s Probably left over from year prior bought the set for right around 800 no idea about saw the only husky I’ve ever owned is a 395 and it a love hate thing with that saw she’s a moody son of a gun just cause it never gets used and when it does I pamper it needs to be run and run hard anyway I got a 20 or 24” bar on one and a 28” on the other and I’m here to tell ya I was pleasantly surprised at what a ripper they are power comes on quick always letting go of some throttle so I’m not constantly on the rev limiter and everyone was having problems starting them but couple pumps of the bulb throw the choke on a pull or two so it fires touch the trigger so choke opens up but still on high idle minute or so on high idle squeeze trigger and she’s ready never had any problems like I said was pleasantly surprised
Great video....I own more saws than I can count off the top of my head. Every one of them does something better than the others. And to be honest, sometimes the mildest saws get the nod just because they are easy to start, run and are good on fuel. My 2258 and 2159 are my most used saws just for that reason. I have the "pro" versions of both, yet often they're more than you need and the increase in power is no advantage. I consider the 2258 and 2159 the best firewood saws ever made for the average person. Yet when the wood is bigger, twisted and hard I'll grab my 2165. You just learn with time what saw does what job well.
I've been running a 400c for a few months. I ran it stock and then put a West Coast exhaust/intake on it. Now it's an incredible saw for 68cc. I've never been so impressed with a stock saw before.
I jave a 550xpmk2, 562xp and a 592xp. 562 and 592 both run 28" bars full comp square ground chisel and the 550 gets a 20" bar. I honestly dont even know what to use the 550 for anymore lol. I can just use the 562 for light and medium cuts with the 28" or a 20". I love the 550mk2 but that thing is just too damn fast for light work and too small for the other stuff since i have the 562xp but i wouldn't get rid of the 550. In texas jere we have fat oak trees and pecan. Last pecan tree i cut was about 3.5 feet in diameter took that down with the 562xp before i got my dream saw 592xp.
I look at saws the same way I look at trucks. If they work, and work well for me, I like them. Edit: How do you like the 6.5 diesel? I've found a few for pretty cheap.
About what we like, I like the long stroke skinny bore, I feel like they have more low end torque, I'm not brand specific, I run dodge and Chevy, not the others, JK, stay strong guys
How do you put a bark box on a 562 xpg mark 2 can you use pop rivots or 2 screes with lock nuts what would you suggest can the muffler be split? If you can help please let me know the barj box i have is from wcs thank you 3:53

there is a new chain its been out about a year called ORBIT the company is out of Main USA the guy told me it is better then oragon holda a edge longer and you can tell the differance when you sharpen it
Enginerring it's called "Use Case". What are you going to use this for? Firewood? Falling big lumber, falling small hard lumber? Homeowner, professional? The "what" matters. Can you run a Stihl 881 Magnum ported with a 3ft bar to cut firewood? Sure. You going to be happy at the end of the day? Maybe, maybe not. Anyway, if you are happy with your saw for the job you are using it for, ignore what anyone else says.
Hey Tinner!! Purchase question for ya. What’s your thoughts on the 562xp (x-torque) for $500 8.5/10 comdition Is this a good saw to have for firewood work. Wasn’t sure if you liked the xtorque or not so much. Thanks for the help bud.
I own the 562, the 570 and my buddy has the 365 xtorq. 4.7, 4.8 and the 570 is 4.9. But the 570 can handle a 32 according to husky, says it's because the chassis is stronger more rigid. Nobody makes videos on the 570. Wanna borrow mine?
I got the 365, my firewood saw for years now and it never misses a beat. Awesome little saw and light.
Love my 365, it's been such a good saw
Thanks for your honest review. I have the bone stock 562XP and love it.
They are both nice saws for sure. I like that you can grind the divider on the 365 xtorq transfer covers and have a 372 XT, or eventually swap it all over to an XP (or big bore) top end.
I think the 562xp would be best for the guy that just wants to go cut lots of wood, the 365 XT for the hobbyist that enjoys to mod as there are tons of options and aftermarket parts available.
I appreciate that you didn't forget about the 365. All about the 562 these days. I've replaced my old 272XP with a 572 and the 365. 365 isn't here yet, had to mail order one, local shops don't carry them. Piped the 572, horrible OEM muffler, horrific in fact. Thanks for not forgetting the seldom talked about 365.
For what I do my 1998 Husqvarna 261 is great. I sometimes wish it was a 262XP but at the time I couldn't justify the additional $.
The best is the best that suits your own needs. cheers from NZ.
The best is the one that gets your job done with the least work. Every tree and every job is different. For me that generally means a factory hot rod. A mod saw would be nice and I watch this channel to motivate me build a kinda big slightly hot rod. Backup will be the stock pro saws. 346xp and ms360. A mod 70ish cc would be fun. A 2511t is also on the to do list.
Everyone has a favorite old saw, but generally manufactures make improvements to their line of saws in order to continue to sell to demanding professionals. The newer saws are generally easier to live with day to day, but I still like using the old ones too.

Both a couple of fine saws there Tinman. Good video 👍
Stock, ported, nothing is going to be faster than a good. Sharp chain and the man behind the saw.
I agree unfortunately some find it easier to be negative and nitpick......why live and love life the way you want to live it and be happy.
interesting to see another view of the saws and bars to tackle this job with, if I were doing this job I'd take my 550xp wth 13" or a 562 with 16". horses for courses :-), had my 562 since 2015, its lovely saw, enjoy and stay safe bro
They sell the gas caps at the big box stores and they fit most Echos as well. Great vid as usual Tinman!
That 562 is impressive! But I'm partial to the 365 since I own one. Lol
Both are good saws
27000 and climbing! Big SUPER THANKS! Tinman!
Yeah, I've done that too a few times. I should try some husky saws out....
CONGRATS ON YOUR 27,000 SUBS BUDDY ,GREAT CHANNEL GREAT CONTENT STAY SAFE BUDDY THAT 562 RUNS EXCELLENT
I honestly like a saw that is a little more broad through the rpm range, which is probably like a larger displacement and older saws.
You're videos are AMAZING!!! I need help!! I can't find anyone that compares the 365 special to 365 x torq, stock, for firewood and a little felling and bucking. Which one is better for power and longevity?

Maybe its worth to notice that xpg is a bit heavier than an xp due to handle heating, and I'm quite short.
Anyway I fully agree that everyone should use the saw they like.
There is not such a thing as a perfect saw for everyone and every job.
Wow TinMan 27,000 is quite the following. Respect to you and stay humble my friend.
Always appreciate having you here Joey
Both great running saws👍🏻 Congratulations on 27K Tin Man
O like my 372xp little modedd nothing crazy and a fully stock 1989 61. For small jobs i like the 61 and for bigger job the 372 XP. Nice content.
my 555 is a great firewood saw, been super reliable, and that’s what I like….screams and puts out when asked….what more could a man ask for?
I have the first year the 562 came out and 570 both still running strong. Yes I run the 562 more
I have a 550xpg mark 2 it is impressive. Sure does scream. Congrats on 27k

I went to a saw shop the other day and I don't know what size saw this was but it was a Dolmar and that saw was a beast , I'm going to find out more about it because it blew me away !
Watching trying to make a decision on what next Husky to buy...Leaning to a 372.
I like your channel and honest reviews and tips although I gotta say, over 20 years I've not had a problem with my Stihl flippy caps
I had to replace the fuel cap once because the seal was leaking but one replaced cap over 20 years of use is dang good.
I don't get why they leak for some people, maybe the same reason mine did, just need to replace it for like $15
I just picked up the 565, compared to my 365XT its got a broader power band, better throttle response, a bit more power, and loads of low end grunt.
I run a 562 with a 28 win Maine. Killer saw. Always fun to run
Tinman is the man!!! Keep up the good work and stay safe my friend.
Love your channel and I'm going to say that the 562 is one of my favorites
My local dealership had two 562s Probably left over from year prior bought the set for right around 800 no idea about saw the only husky I’ve ever owned is a 395 and it a love hate thing with that saw she’s a moody son of a gun just cause it never gets used and when it does I pamper it needs to be run and run hard anyway I got a 20 or 24” bar on one and a 28” on the other and I’m here to tell ya I was pleasantly surprised at what a ripper they are power comes on quick always letting go of some throttle so I’m not constantly on the rev limiter and everyone was having problems starting them but couple pumps of the bulb throw the choke on a pull or two so it fires touch the trigger so choke opens up but still on high idle minute or so on high idle squeeze trigger and she’s ready never had any problems like I said was pleasantly surprised
Hey Bud I’m very happy with my husky 562xp love your content
I’m getting into firewood and getting some big stuff from tree guys here in Ontario 🇨🇦
Congrats on 27K!!! Awesome video, I like hearing you opinion what saw and why, thanks for sharing. TC
I have a 365 special and it realy rips and a 345xp for smaller stuf no complaints
Great video....I own more saws than I can count off the top of my head. Every one of them does something better than the others. And to be honest, sometimes the mildest saws get the nod just because they are easy to start, run and are good on fuel. My 2258 and 2159 are my most used saws just for that reason. I have the "pro" versions of both, yet often they're more than you need and the increase in power is no advantage. I consider the 2258 and 2159 the best firewood saws ever made for the average person. Yet when the wood is bigger, twisted and hard I'll grab my 2165. You just learn with time what saw does what job well.
Congrats on 27k brother! 🎇💪 happy for you big time
Congrats on 27k and many more. Awesome channel tin man
I've been running a 400c for a few months. I ran it stock and then put a West Coast exhaust/intake on it. Now it's an incredible saw for 68cc. I've never been so impressed with a stock saw before.
I jave a 550xpmk2, 562xp and a 592xp. 562 and 592 both run 28" bars full comp square ground chisel and the 550 gets a 20" bar. I honestly dont even know what to use the 550 for anymore lol. I can just use the 562 for light and medium cuts with the 28" or a 20". I love the 550mk2 but that thing is just too damn fast for light work and too small for the other stuff since i have the 562xp but i wouldn't get rid of the 550. In texas jere we have fat oak trees and pecan. Last pecan tree i cut was about 3.5 feet in diameter took that down with the 562xp before i got my dream saw 592xp.
Love your pozzy energy Tinman.
I love my 562xp even more after porting haha but it was a ripper stock for the size weight of it..
run what ya brung and enjoy it.
I like my 390xp with my 36inch bar. I want to put a lightweight bar on it, help balance the weight
I know my ex torque 365 is a 71 cc it's stamped on the saw I'm thinking about putting a 28-in Sahara Japanese bar on it
What’s your takes on the holzfforma brand of bars and chains? I’m also an Oregon chain user as well.
I look at saws the same way I look at trucks. If they work, and work well for me, I like them.
Edit: How do you like the 6.5 diesel? I've found a few for pretty cheap.
I'd take that 365 any day over that 562 , for simple reason easy to repair and I don't need a computer to plug it into
Is That true 😮?
I was about to get a 562
But Thats a good Point
EASY TO REPAIR
Saws are like golf clubs, you need a set for all the situations.
I like my stock 365 specal
I really like my 362 haven't tried A562 yet
I dew not own either .. but i like what i is hearing from U on the 5 6 2 xp.. probably gonna try 2 get 0ne some Day..
About what we like, I like the long stroke skinny bore, I feel like they have more low end torque, I'm not brand specific, I run dodge and Chevy, not the others, JK, stay strong guys
How do you put a bark box on a 562 xpg mark 2 can you use pop rivots or 2 screes with lock nuts what would you suggest can the muffler be split?
If you can help please let me know the barj box i have is from wcs thank you 3:53
Slightly unrelated, I love my Jonsered 2065. Very reliable

there is a new chain its been out about a year called ORBIT the company is out of Main USA the guy told me it is better then oragon holda a edge longer and you can tell the differance when you sharpen it
Enginerring it's called "Use Case". What are you going to use this for? Firewood? Falling big lumber, falling small hard lumber? Homeowner, professional? The "what" matters. Can you run a Stihl 881 Magnum ported with a 3ft bar to cut firewood? Sure. You going to be happy at the end of the day? Maybe, maybe not.
Anyway, if you are happy with your saw for the job you are using it for, ignore what anyone else says.
I used to service and sell husky and echo how old is 562 before compression dropped some im looking at buying 562 xp
27K well done ////the old 365 for me works well got a 562 2 years old will not cut lean as
I've had that happen to me as they get older it gets worse
020 AVP long back handle 3/8 Pico all the clean and clearing and firewood I need I'm sure you ran them old man pic of the letter
Congrats. Curious if thats the 365xt I sold you a while back?
John
Hey Tinner!!
Purchase question for ya.
What’s your thoughts on the 562xp (x-torque) for $500
8.5/10 comdition
Is this a good saw to have for firewood work.
Wasn’t sure if you liked the xtorque or not so much.
Thanks for the help bud.
I have one and it's one of my favorite saws.
Great vid do you think the 365 would be powerful enough to be used with a chainsaw mill
Half the time my 372 won't start so I use my 266 or by 362
That’s my saw 365 special stock af I just love the sound. Any recommendations for muffler mods
Both saws work good
Are you running 93 octane fuel? That might Show you a difference between the compression ratio
I don’t care how much you push these newer saws I’ll stick with my 272,371 and 044 Stihl with a 20 on all saws and 3120 for stumps
Yeah I like my old stuff the most for sure.
28 is w good length 4 most needs
I own the 562, the 570 and my buddy has the 365 xtorq. 4.7, 4.8 and the 570 is 4.9. But the 570 can handle a 32 according to husky, says it's because the chassis is stronger more rigid. Nobody makes videos on the 570. Wanna borrow mine?
