Hello fellas.I'm in the process of thinning out some saws I don't use much to help pay for a new 346 xp.Between the 350 and 51 considering both are in great shape mechanically which one would you keep and why?Thanks in advance!

I don't know what you should sell but I did recently see a picture of the new 550xp, I guess the 346's replacement. May want to see about that before you buy.

There basicly the same saw power wise, i would sell the newer one, to get more money for the 346.

Well,I have a couple more Im selling that I dont use much so I wanna keep the one that usually holds up the best. Both have so far,but the 350 feels a little lighter.

The 350 is .8 lbs lighter and runs 500 rpm faster then the 51.
