       Some of us cant afford one f these.
       I found this local guy north of me his 3rd one used for $10,000
       years ago. I dont have a clue how much they are new.
       But anyhow he is up to 5 of them this year.

       Per David Smith at CCC Racing at his stihl shop down by him.
       Ballpark is $26,000, there are a few options to make it cleaner
       or faster that can add to the price.
       In the local Stihl dealership they love it, in 6 minutes it will
       do a chain nicely unattended and a light on top signals when it
       is time to stick a new chain on it. The machine is in the middle
       of the 2 cycle area of the shop and which ever tech sees it
       first swaps chains and goes back to whatever he was doing. It
       runs 8 hours a day with minimal maintenance, and they are able
       to keep the wait time for drop off chains usually in the 2-3 day
       timeframe. They can slip an emergency chain into the que if
       needed. Many tree services drop off 100 or more at a time and
       get special pricing. They could not hire an additional tech for
       a year for $26K, even before benefits, taxes, etc. They love it.

       Stihl dealer in CRG said they were $18,000 new.  I was told 15K
       years back.
       If those 44"-60" come here. I told him going up to him. So mise
       well send them himself.  I hate doing longer chain and bulk of
       them at that.

       Local just north of me does chain only local and online.
       His old shop and wiring could only take 5 franzen running and
       had more waiting.
       Now his new shop almost done he is running 8 with 2 more coming.
