    They can add calcium chloride, but it can make it set up too fast and also it weakens the floor a little. I'll have them add a little though. But it still has to be kept above freezing for awhile

    That is what I am thinking. Something else to order from the 48. Now I need a chain builder.

    Have Dallas sell you one of his and ship it up. The learning experience will pay for the shipping

    Stihl is good chain. Probably the best, because it's hard. But it can tear up a $10 square file pretty quick if you push too hard

    Have you looked at any of Shawns chains? Are they leaning?

    I don't believe that now. Good to have one to look at? Yes.

    The cap has a thin paper gasket. It’s removable to service carb.

    Tom, get a loop or 2 from Dall. Some great chain! If you are always in softwood, Oregon might do just fine and it's easier to file.

    I think I may go 16" on the 026. What y'all's opinion. I will use it for falling. I target 5-9" trees. I have a 20" on the 261, all other saws are 25 or 28 inch.
