Same symptoms mean common causes.
The only thing in common was:
1. Fuel
2. Conditions
You said you mixed fresh fuel. What did you mix? Give specific amounts of specific products.
The saw shop will probably find two scored cylinders, which means it's something you did.
People will call BS on this, but too much oil is as bad as not enough. Sorry, it is true. It's science:
Oil displaces the fuel in the mix. The more oil you put in the less fuel you get. The less fuel you get, the leaner the mixture. Run too lean, and the engine gets hot and that's where you end up with scored pistons and cylinders.
Hopefully it's not scored, though, because then you owe your dad a new saw.
