If that flywheel start is as finicky as the old John Deere A, you'd be
through about 5 or 6 log cuts with the chain saw before the engine was even
started on that beast.

For the price of one of those drag saws I can buy _two_ brand shiny
new chainsaws. They sell for insane money these days.

Because I've used chainsaws. Unless you're carving with one,
they're more work than fun. Something like this looks like a lot more
fun to use than a chainsaw.
