       I didnt know this till just now on the naming.
       Dolmar History
       Emil Lerp was a modern, forward-looking entrepreneur who knew
       how to motivate his staff. He organised an internal competition
       and asked the contestants to come up with a name for his saw. It
       had to be simple, sound good and easy to pronounce in many
       languages. It was Emil Lerp’s own wife, Martha, of all people,
       who was the winner with her suggestion to call the saw DOLMAR.
       This was because the petrol chain saw of 1927 was used for the
       first time on top of Dolmar Mountain in Thuringia, which reaches
       an altitude of 739 metres. Emil Lerp was also a native of
       Thuringia and Dolmar Mountain was a holiday spot that his family
       would often frequent.
       Our company was named after Dolmar Mountain in Thuringia, which
       reaches an altitude of 739 m. This is where the first petrol
       chain saw model A of 1927 was used for the first time.
       The saw proved such a success that Emil Lerp soon used the name
       DOLMAR for his company as well. The saw introduced a technical
       revolution in forestry all over the world. More innovations
       followed in subsequent years, one after the other, and they were
       all far ahead of their time. “Model CL” was launched in 1939. It
       was produced for almost 30 years and used across the entire
       globe. In 1935 the company launched the fi rst one-man electric
       saw, model DB 35, and finally in 1952 the first one-man petrol
       chain saw. This was followed by the new all-position diaphragm
       carburetor, which was the first of its kind, the gearlessdirect
       drive, the dual-mass vibration damper system, the Wankel engine
       and many revolutionary new developments that set new trends over
       and over again. The future has a long tradition for DOLMAR.

       WOW, cool, I like to know where names come from. I think that
       Husqvarna means 'mill house' is Swedish. When husky first
       started producing arms for the king of Sweden in 1689 the
       factory was set up in an old 'mill house'.
