If you are a pro or an amateur using your chainsaws two or more days a week, what bar and chain oil (brand) do you use?

Note that I am NOT asking for the best oil or even a discussion on why you use what you use. The search function above dumped half of the words in the title of this post as being too short or too common so I could not dig into the oil threads here. Sorry about that.

Whatever is on special and is actual bar and chain oil.
Don't live where you live so hard to advise- but most often more is less when it comes to volume. You usually make a bigger saving by buying more like 5 gallon pails and collecting them from a local store than buying 20 1 litre pottles over a period of time.

If cost is a factor- you might be able to find slideway oil that has been used and removed to be replaced and the owner needs somewhere to get rid of the used stuff- not recommeded- but better than used sump oil!

Check your local tractor supply for specials.
