I have been using an old Stihl case to keep my Echo 346 in and it never fit very well. I heated the plastic up with a heat gun and "molded" the saw into the the hot plastic. The result was a custom fit with a factory look.

Hello Mr T. That idea is something to try at some time. If it worked for you and your happy, that's all that counts. Lewis..
My hobby is restoring old saw. Just because it's old, doesn't mean she can't run and look good again. Take care. Lewis Brander.

Yes, you simply start the saw in the case and let it get hot. When burning plastic is smelled it is time to pull out..... ;)
