    This is one item I want to re-test now that my 261 has extra bananas... When do we have enough power to "graduate" from 3/8" Picco/LP to .325 or 3/8" etc. and so on. The last test it was plain to see that 3/8 was borderline. I also have a great loop of 63PS3, with the bumpers ground off, filed square, and a bunch more done to it. I would love to have a 60DL loop pf 3/8" with similar work done to see how they fair on the same saw.

    I've got to hand it to Dex, he is one clever fellow. He started this fire and when he saw which way the smoke was blowing he park the cant trailer right there because he was pretty sure that Huskies auto tune could not adjust to all the smoke it had to compensate with, lucky for me the smoke must have helped them because those two huskies never ran better.

    Ted you crack me up :rofl: :lol:. Can't say I would argue though, ol' Dex had some tricks up his sleeve.
    Just a heads up though, enjoy that #1 spot with your 562, cause I'm sending one of these here 60cc saws of mine off, and it aint gonna be pretty when I get it back :p:rofl: :lol:....

    :rofl: :lol:

    I'm learning myself. . It's a slow process. A good Chain vise is a must though. :cool:

    Stihls run better with more smoke.. I thought the Huskies would hate it.. :confused: Apparently I was wrong. :saw: You have some fine running saws my friend.

    Always a pleasure talking to you. I wish we lived closer. I'd love to come down and see you sometime? I may have to bring SquareFile with me :whistle:
